    Xavier -6

    At George Washington... I threw $350 on it. (Apparently BetIslands is limiting sides).

    Tail me. I am also debating making a huge bet on Evansville -3.5 at Bradley tonight.

    Sober video will come later with confidence (similar to JJ's super bowl video last year).

    Yes sir.

    Not going to say this is a lock, because there is no such thing, but I immediately saw the line, did a little bit of research, and had to jump on it.

    Line opened at 4.5/5 on most sites, wish I would've gotten to the punch quicker, but I don't expect it to matter. Xavier by 15 IMO.

    Line down to 5.5, added $91 to it.

    I'm probably going to throw 441 on Evansville too.

    I may just be really jet-lagged, but I really really really like both of these plays.

    Roll is 892.

    441 + 441 + my daily $10 5 team parlay = 892.

    That's good bankroll management, right? Waiting to see what happens w/ Evansville line. at 3.5 right now, also considering taking the over instead. Bradley goes on scoring runs, and I can't see this game going under 140. Problem is that the line is at 146. So, debating, researching, etc for the time being.

    Tail me on Xavier.

    I agree. I see them winning by 10+. I have them in a straight bet for 1 unit

    When I really like a play or it looks great is when they tend to lose though its hard to bet on Xavier. Those ghetto kids have looked like crap since the throw down game. They may win by 10 though.

    Ryan you are a square. It's ok pal when we are new to the sports gambling world we all start as squares. I remember when I told everyone to take the yankees on the road vs the a's because it was free money at -120 years ago. Nobody in their right mind should be tailing you. And frankly i'm convinced you might have down syndrome. I can't understand a fuking word you say.

    Bradley is a terrible team. They are at home, which might make a difference.

    My question is: If Xavier covers the spread are all the so called experts going to apologize for being rude???? I thought this board was to post picks, ask questions and try and make money. If all you do is criticize, how are we to take anything you say for more than just bullshit???

    I know this puts me on the naughty list, but Santa please forgive me. I know not what I do.

    You were definitely not the one I was referring to. It was more of a accumulation of the whole board that took me over the top when the square comment was posted by someone else.

    Sorry, been slammed at work.
    Still debating if going to bet Evansville.
    Have $441 locked in on Xavier.

    Let's start with the obvious;
    Xavier shoots 45.8%, holds opponents to 39.2%
    GW shoots 42.1%, opponents shoot 44.5%

    Xavier is a solid defensive team, not a GREAT defensive team, but definitely solid and athletic enough to contain Tony Taylor, Lasan Kromah, David Pellom, Nemanja Mikic, etc.

    Xavier also shoots a better free throw percentage, gets more rebounds, and has a better assist/turnover ratio.

    GW is 5-5 at home; their only two "noteworthy" if you want to call them that wins are against Richmond and Charlotte. Anyone impressed? Not me.

    I get that Xavier has been wildly inconsistent, but look at who they're playing boys. Unless the fix is in (which I really doubt it is), I don't even see this being a close game.

    One of the worst hoops bettors I know has Xavier as his biggest play. He's currently 34-71-3 in college this season. Hope he gets it right for you.

    I would like to eat my crow now. I am up 15 bucks with a 4 team parlay to go(3 wins and Minnesota -1.5 pending). I was backing Xavier with you Leaf. Sorry we didn't cash. Hope the loss doesn't break you bank. If Minn covers I will be up 2.5 units for the night. If not I am about even for the night.

    He's just a guy we know in Vegas. Texts his plays to my friend every day and when my friend has time he emails them to me. Guy is solid at bases and just likes the action in hoops. Plays poker all day. Will try to post them in my thread and will asterik them.

    Please do Grits. Sorry I lead you all astray, especially you Opie and Comala. I clearly should've bet the XU ML.
