I read that a Ga St. player is out, can't confirm that and their asst coach is coaching today since they fired their head coach a few days ago.

thanks, man, let's get it.

YIKES....Georgia State??

hey i don't blame you for questioning. the teams are a dozen spots apart in kenpom's rankings (both over 200th nationally) and split two close games in regular season. Georgia State is the more physical team, better on the boards (esp offensive boards). UNCW's biggest advantage is in 3-point shooting, and the Richmond Coliseum is like a poorly lit barn. i grew up in Richmond and it's one of the worst shooting gyms around, and a good gym for a team that wants to out-physical its opponent. Georgia State just fired their head coach and i think that the result will be a very physical mindset and a bump in performance today. they've always done well in the first round of the CAA tourney and i think that continues today. the way i've been going the last few days, i can't say that you'd be foolish just to fade me blindly, but that's my rationale. i have Georgia State, 58-52. BOL whatever you decide.

see above. again, i don't blame you for being skeptical. check out Ga State's past performances in the first round of the CAA tourney, and i actually really like the coaching change angle - this guy's coaching for his job, either here or at the next place, today. i'm not saying that they're an underrated team or ready to make a sleeper run in the CAA tourney (they're not). they're playing a team that's as bad as they are, and they're motivated and more physical. the one thing that UNCW does better than average is shoot from distance, and there aren't many worse-lit gyms than the Richmond Coliseum. BOL whatever you decide.

I don't know of any Ga St player being out, and i looked. i like the coaching change angle.

your point that the smart money may be on PASS here is well-taken.

[BiffTFinancial]

Greek just moved to Ga State -1. at least someone out there agrees with me....

[BiffTFinancial]

3* Georgia State +1 - WINNER

even nailed the exact score above, 58-52. surely, it will be all downhill from here.

[Regul8er]

I wont hide......I liked UNCW and my analysis was way way off line. I expected a better effort from one of the CAA's best players.

Congrats!

thanks, man. i was relatively fortunate here. yes, my cap turned out to be correct, but it required 18 assists on 23 FGs from Ga State (unbelievable for a team that poor offensively) and the better shooting team UNCW missing 10 of 20 FTs and shooting only 29.5% from the field. i expected UNCW to struggle and Ga State to be more physical (8 blocks were nice, outrebounding UNCW), but i didn't expect the offensive stats to be this skewed. i'm telling you, Jimmer Fredette or Jon Diebler would look like an average shooter at the Richmond Coliseum. it would be better for shooters if they played the CAA tourney outside.

whats next

rest of the afternoon, i like Creighton, Towson and Towson/Drexel under, trying to decide now. like Detroit/Valpo over a lot tonight.

[Rick22]

Well done biff

[BiffTFinancial]

Well done biff

thanks, Rick.

[BiffTFinancial]

adding

3* Towson State +9'
3* Creighton -1'

like the Towson/Drexel under a lot, but since i like both that and Towson for the same reason (Drexel's a defensive-oriented team that has to play again tomorrow after they win; terrible shooting gym), i'll go with Towson since that seems to have a larger margin for error. plus, Towson could give a couple of extra fouls late to push this on over given that it's an elimination game. have that one at Drexel, 61-56, and the other at Creighton, 66-58.

please do not tail these plays. i'm colder than the Statue of Liberty's right now and one game changes nothing.

[BiffTFinancial]

3* Towson State +9' - WINNER

thanks, Drexel for all the missed FTs and dumbass fouls down the stretch, much appreciated.

4* Detroit/Valpo over 144'

congratulations! keep ripping and running the boards!
what's poppin' tonight, my friend?
I'm on tour with the wife, but I'm checking in now and then...

cleveland state ML heavy
delaware +3.5 light

and I'm following you late for some of that fire...

[BiffTFinancial]

adding

4* Northeastern/Delaware over 132

i know that i said that the Richmond Coliseum is an under machine, but if two teams look good to go over the total in that venue, it's these too. i have this one at NE, 74-73, thinking we may get some elimination game FTs (although my projected score wouldn't really indicate that given the close margin).

thanks, pal. tonight is looking like the two overs, plus maybe something in OU/Miami-OH, Akron/Kent or W&M/JMU. those are the last three games on my list to cap, should have them done in the 6 o'clock hour. i like your Delaware play. i literally flipped a coin to decide who would be 74 and who would be 73 in my score, i think it's that close, so the points look good. my heart's with CSU, but i have some concerns there primarily because of the line movement and the fact that WSU plays good defense and may slow down Coles. i think that you were wise to go ML there rather than ATS, it's hard to imagine Watters and Coles not getting the W there. BOL with your plays, i'll be rooting for both.

[BiffTFinancial]

BOL to us.

exactly! good luck with all of your play tonight!
and thanks for the heads up and the insight... later!

3-0 +9u start, smoke to that.

UDM/Valpo, NE/Delaware overs pending. heading home, check back in in a bit before 7 pm tips.

keep it up! ... you see any good picks with NBA tonight?

keep it up! ... you see any good picks with NBA tonight?

well, you don't want NBA picks from me - the association is a mystery to me, gambling-wise. however, i will say that a buddy of mine told me that he would be on Knicks and Heat (Cavs fade, Heat bounceback) and someone else told me to take a look at the Warriors. from where i sit, there aren't many bad Cavs fades, and i've had Cavs tix for years.

[Santo4osu]

I really like that Detroit/VALPARAISO OVER!!!

adding

3* Akron/Kent State 1H under 65

like Akron and game under, and OU in their game, but like this best of the bunch.

[romoney]

Biff..you are killin it today!! had to work late..so i couldnt play these ones...BOL..

[BiffTFinancial]

3* Akron/Kent State 1H under 65 - WINNER (58 points)

nothing better than the last 35 seconds of a winning 1H under.

NE/Delaware over in trouble, may need OT.
