Hoop it up '11-12

[BigDan]

only thing im down on so far is mizzou-6, not real thrilled about their "rubberband" status tho...just played vcu-14 (talked about it in your lean thread)..

[BigDan]

might join you on St. Mary's, still considering how strong my resolve is on playing against Baylor, tried it with NW, passed on byu gm, maybe tonight, holding out to see if line gets pushed up a little higher..

Getting killed by the closer on SD. Ouch.

[BigDan]

never a good feeling.....i made a little degen bet on siu+8 1st half and under 58.5 1st half..certainly not much backing this up and honestly i mean "little bet" , always like the 1st half under in these 1st round tourney gms and i need a little action.. neither team is exactly a offense force so what the hell..

[K2daL]

Would you take SD +5.5 for 2nd half? they are playing well so far?

Sorry -- missed this.

Yes, I would have.

NoCoin, BigDan, Shogun wanted to get ur opinions:

Uconn @ home -12 against fairfield. Line seems low, Uconn repeatedly blows out this team, this UCONN team should out-rebound Fairfield something fierce. -16 or even -17 seems like the appropriate line here.
Example: SDSU getting -16 against ELON @ home. Elon overall is a better team than fairfield. Both matchups seem similar with Uconn getting less points here.

If it stays at 12, I'd take Fairfield. Leaned Fairfield myself, but I doubt I'll play it.

Unreal.

admittedly i have a soft spot for MAAC teams, no special reason other than i generally do pretty well in that conf..that said Fairfield has had 11 days off, like you said will probably get pasted on the boards, and for some reason it always seems like these MAAC teams dont perform well in these final gms heading into conf play as they know they wont be getting a at large anyway so start looking ahead to conf gms (iona may be the exception)..not so sure the line is short as you think but does look off maybe a point or 2..not sure what kind of crowd or motivation ucon will play with either really so i passed but certainly understand a play on them..gl whatever yo decide..

San Diego +5 (2U)

I'm really pretty much ready to give up on this thread.

[testertips]

[BigDan]

[BigDan]

I appreciate the input guys. I am rolling w/ a 1 unit parlay on Uconn spread and Kansas ML. I don't trust Kansas to cover as USC always keeps things close, however Kansas should bounce back after that horrible loss.

"RLM" on almost every UNCG game. I wouldn't read too much into it.

it has happened a bunch on vcu during there ats streak they are on now..i never stess it just pissed i didnt wait it out and got down early today..oh well just had to take more..not sure what whoever has been seeing fading vcu against turnover prone teams as that a recipe to get your ass kicked against Shaka's team....they prob been the most undervalued team running the last month or so..

This thread is officially done.

Lost a bullshit game with San Diego, a bullshit game with Hawaii -- I've had it.

Later.
