NCAAB w/ Steven Suarez

[StevenSuarez]

How goes it handicappers?

You may recognize my name from some pick articles on the main website. I figured it'd be cool to have a thread in which we can discuss plays and talk about college ball in general.

Before today's action, my record so far if you go back and count is 16-7-1 (ATS and total plays combined). Just under 70% which obviously is going to be extremely hard to maintain!

Today's picks can be found here:

Welcome all. Let's get this going.



P.S: You can also find me in the NBA forums!

who you like for the Tulsa/Rice and Denver/N.Texas games

[StevenSuarez]

Sorry, had no opinion on those games anyway. I like to focus on matchups where I'm very familar with the participating teams.

Push with KU and Zona gets the close cover. Miss. State came out firing in the second half and it's looking like they'll easily cover.

[StevenSuarez]

2-0-1 on the day
18-7-2 this season

[StevenSuarez]

YTD: 18-7-2 (72%)

Some early lines I like for Monday:

Cincinnati +4.5
Iona -9.5
Kansas -17.5
Northeastern +8

Look out for my final picks article tomorrow morning!

[StevenSuarez]

Could easily see KU completely blowing out A&M tonight and really liking that game ending over 126 too but going to stay away. Picks are up on the site.

GL to everyone tonight.

[StevenSuarez]

Looks like Sean Kilpatrick will play tonight. Great news for Cincy.

[StevenSuarez]

Interesting line movement on the Santa Clara/Loyola-Marymount game. Going to look closely there.

[StevenSuarez]

YTD: 18-10-2 (64%)

Really tough beats tonight. Things were looking good but all three teams collapsed in the second halves of their respective games. Back to the drawing board for tomorrow. A winning night in the NBA saved me!

[StevenSuarez]

I'm alive guys. Been super busy but still getting my picks out on the site.

Updated YTD record: 26-19-3 (58%)

Some good games tomorrow. As always, GL everyone!

[StevenSuarez]

Tough card today. Here are my plays:

http://www.sbrforum.com/ncaa-basketball/free-picks/ncaa-basketball-picks-today-a-23170/

Duke -4.5
Arizona +7.5

[StackinCoin]

GL today Steven! I tailed you on Duke (like the writeup) and I was already on Arizona. I'll actually be at the Cal/Arizona game tonight and will be hoping for a Cal win but Arizona cover.

[StevenSuarez]

Best of luck to you too. Have fun at the game!

[StevenSuarez]

Wishing I would've held off a little longer and gotten 'Zona at +8. Oh well, c'mon Wildcats!

[Suarez]

2-0

YTD: 28-19-3

[StevenSuarez]

Rider +9, Columbia -4 and Cleveland State -11 are all looking tempting. Only leans for now though.

[StevenSuarez]

YTD: 28-19-3

One definite play so far:

Cleveland State -11

May be back later with another. GL to everyone tonight.

[StevenSuarez]

So glad I stayed away from Rider. Hot damn!

[StevenSuarez]

Easy winner. Loyola really is awful.

YTD: 29-19-3

[nbr1chinchilla]

Thanks for the play

[StevenSuarez]

Early Saturday play:

Vandy/Florida OVER 142

[StevenSuarez]

Just short.

YTD: 29-20-3

Be back tomorrow with a few plays + writeups on the site.

[StevenSuarez]

Ahhh why not...

Mizzou -3. Gonna be tough for the Tigers to handle Robinson but their guard play should more than make up for that.

GL!

[Suarez]

Push. What a great game that was.

YTD: 29-20-4

[StevenSuarez]

http://www.sbrforum.com/ncaa-basketball/free-picks/ncaa-basketball-picks-today-a-23215/

BOL to you all tonight.

[BiffTFinancial]

Easy winner. Loyola really is awful. YTD: 29-19-3

Towson might be the worst team in the nation, but i think that Loyola is the worst home team and possibly the worst 1H team.

[StevenSuarez]

Yeah they've lost 11 in a row. 4-7 ATS in those games

[BiffTFinancial]

Loyola has only led at the half in three games this season, only one home game (Fordham). they are almost a must-fade at home. the school started charging students for tickets for the first time this season, and other than a game against cross-town DePaul, have struggled to get even 2,000 attendees per game. they have literally no home court advantage.

BOL with your plays tonight!

Reminds me of Oklahoma and the Lloyd Noble Center, except that's on a bigger scale of course. Was pretty sad to see how many empty seats there were for their game against a top five Mizzou team last night. The Sooners aren't even that bad either. Depressing stuff.

[StevenSuarez]

Adding:

Oklahoma State -2

Great spot for the Cowboys here. They played Baylor tough and I liked what I saw. Can't remember the last time Iowa State won in Stillwater either.

it was during the Reagan years - 1988. like this pick, i'm on it too. BOL.

[StevenSuarez]

Guys, can someone tell me why Clemson is favored by 9 against Maryland? Is there something I'm missing? I know the Terrapins are awful on the road but how on earth are they getting nine here. Better rebounding team and the Terps will have the best player on the court.

Anyone?

Nice, let's cash this
