    How good is St Louis?

    Favored against nova? I know they killed washington but an upper tier big east school favored at a neutral court? I need to see them to really believe it

    I like this St. Louis team. Also, they have played a tougher schedule by far, beating both a top 25 team and a top 50 team. I think they cover today. I got it at -1.5. Sagarin also agrees, having them at 36, and Villanova at 51...though it is early so I don't know how much stock you want to put into that.

    To have the line open with them as a favorite is almost enough for me to play them. Majority will definately be on Nova and line is already moving against them slightly. St. Louis or no play.

    Ok here is deal with St Louis... They have an absolute stud softmore, named Mccall, as he goes so goes the team... There backup point guard and sometimes offguard is a guy by the name of JEtt, he is a jett, but makes terrible decisions and can't shoot to save his life... The rest of the team is rather avg. but they are mostly expierenced seniors... As for right now I would have to say that St. Louis is getting way to much respect from odds makers.

    Nope.

    Washington/Villanova will both end up missing the tournament.

    This is the best team Majerus has ever had because he recruited the whole team, so all the players fit his system. Kenpom has them at #30.

    Kenpom had Saint Mary's at 18th a few days ago and then they lost by double digits to Denver, a team who routinely finishes sub 250 in the RPI rankings...

    Too early to use kenpom I think.

    Oh totally agree, I gave it more as an FYI. But I do like the Billikens for the reason I stated.

    Better than Villanova, whose coach is an overrated pretty boy.

    St.Louis is a quality team but they need Washington and Villannova to go nuts nows and have strong seasons. if St.Louis wins the 76 Classic they should be a ranked team

    They certainly embarrassed Washington. That 13 point win was really more like a 30 point win. They had mercy and let Washington add garbage points.

    Yep, up 29 on second half and the 13-point final margin was the closest Huskies came.

    Villanova is not a top tier Big East team this year. They will finish in the bottom half.

    I think St. Louis rolls by at least 12 points. Not gonna bet it yet though. I really like OVER 53 points in Lions-Saints game next Sunday night too.

    I need to hit 6 in a row.....I don't care if it takes me two day or two weeks.....I just wanna hit 6 in a row...start with $50 and double up every time.
