COLLEGE HOOPS WINNERS 2017-18 Thread

I watch Sparty and I just see a team that is going to be upset early. Too much depth, bad rotations and their best players aren't guards. Recipe for an early upset in March.

I will be surprised if the Big Ten has a team advance to the Sweet 16. MSU is the best by far, but they will be hurt by poor competition throughout the season.

Winston and Langford are solid players, but Ward and Bridges are obviously their best players. When game is on the line, ball is usually in a gaurds hands regardless of who the best player is. Same reason why Purdue won't be making a deep run.

No coming back from this. 2H won't be any better. Northwestern dialed in and MSU playing like total shit.

I was thinking about going to this game too...

johnnyvegas13 · 02-17-18, 03:04 PM

I'm taking st 2h

not ot that I think they win

but will play much tougher

DOM_Toretto · 02-17-18, 03:07 PM

I have to go MSU -10 2nd half... I think NU out hustled MSU but NU cants play any better, MSU can’t play any worse.

SEAHAWKHARRY · 02-17-18, 03:15 PM

I took mich st -10 2h as well

DOM_Toretto · 02-17-18, 03:30 PM

26-4 start to the 2nd half to tie it up. Beautiful comeback.

Happy to be wrong here

krk1030 · 02-17-18, 03:50 PM

26-4 in the 2h tie game.

Holy shit

LOL Chris Collins. So happy to see Northwestern blow this after everyone rode their jock last season when they finally made the tourney.

DOM_Toretto · 02-17-18, 04:20 PM

I give Izzo a ton of heat & rightfully so - even here, that terrible lineup after the first tv break led to a 10-0 NU run that started to spiral out of control - but GOTTA GIVE IZZO ALL THE CREDIT FOR THE COMEBACK HERE! He definitely got their minds right at halftime and made the best halftime adjustments I’ve ever seen. What a comeback win! Spartans are the team of destiny!

KRIT · 02-17-18, 04:26 PM

Izzo took Collins to school there. Nice hit on the second half.

I see Florida as -2.5 favs, dangerously close so it’s a pass for me.

good advice, you were right about the gators

Ups and downs, it's part of gambling. Get it back.

Dom you have to stop betting large faves on the moneyline. We’ve talked about this.

Yep, irresponsible bet on Cincy ml yesterday. But I can count on one hand how many times I’ve bet fav mls this season, so it’s not a big deal to me, and won’t happen much again.

jjgold · 02-19-18, 03:04 PM

Those favorite money lines always look appealing and I bury all of us

DOM_Toretto · 02-19-18, 03:34 PM

No... all it means is I’m betting too many losers.

263 bets so far, 70% through the season puts me on track for 375 plays. The past 3 seasons I’ve averaged 455 plays for the season (and I’ve been profitable in each of those seasons). If anything I’m a little light on volume, but I’d say right on track since the conference tourneys and NCAA tourney get a lot of plays.
