COLLEGE HOOPS WINNERS 2017-18 Thread

**DOM_Toretto** · 11-21-17, 04:59 PM

Texas Arlington +11.5 @ Alabama
Freshmen NBA prospects Petty and Sexton are studs for sure - Petty just hit 10/13 from deep last game! But Arlington has a senior team (I think 7 Sr. & 1 Jr. in rotation) led by NBA prospect Hervey up front and Neal in backcourt. They can score and keep up with the Tide, and I highly doubt they'll be leaving Petty wide open from deep (UTA just held BYU to 22% from 3).

Cincinatti -17 vs. Richmond
Bearcats players said they're on a business trip with the goal of bringing back some hardware from the Cayman Islands. Cincy was up double digits most of last game vs. Buffalo before letting off the gas pedal. From what I've seen from Richmond so far they don't have the offensive or defensive capacity to keep up in this game.

The trolls gotta get in here now and dish it out while I'm down still, cuz soon I'll be in the black and grinding out winners where there's no room for trolls just winners talking winning.

TWizzle came in and tried to troll me cuz I called him out for betting extraordinary amounts of big underdog MLs and he got butthurt by it for some reason.

LKid is usually good for cbb discussion but he posts drunk/f'd up often.

It's all good.

Sober now

get em

**TheeArchBishop** · 11-21-17, 09:25 PM

Lol funny exchange above

**2daBank** · 11-21-17, 09:29 PM

Well you did kinda troll wizzle's plays 1st. Turn about fair play I suppose.

My rule of thumb is save the shit talking and trolling for all the random stupid threads posted on the daily in PT. Think threads where guy posting his plays should be off limits as nothing but respect for everyone who willing to step out and be transparent with everything he playing. Even the most annoying picks threads where dudes doctoring their record or claiming bs bet amounts I try and just avoid although can't help oneself every once and a while when reading complete bs!! Lol

2 no doubters

**unde0087** · 11-22-17, 01:39 AM

Dom, I guess if everything plays out we get to see who is for real. Hope those Spartans are ready.

I hope to God it's on.

**unde0087** · 11-22-17, 01:57 AM

Izzo vs Williams let get this shit on. I got mad respect for Izzy. One of the best coaches of all time and a great man. We can only hope we both survive.

I like my team better (if Bridges plays, which I gotta think he would) but your coach Williams has Izzo's number for sure. I'll never forget my spartans getting trounced not once but twice in one season at Ford Field in Detroit - including the national champ game. Izzo has overachieved for years but he can't win big games vs big time teams. He sucks vs Duke & UNC, got out coached just last week in Chicago vs. coach K.

Imo izzy consistently takes less talent further in tourney anyone! Certainly not saying Sparty doesn't have talent (some years less than others) just exceed expectations many a season. On other hand too often I see coach Roy getting less respect than he deserves simply cause he a great recruiter which shouldn't be a indictment on a coach!

**MMANick** · 11-22-17, 10:53 AM

Take NC or Duke versus Izzo every damn time.

**KRIT** · 11-22-17, 12:36 PM

Yeah I agree that Izzo gets the most out of his players than probably any coach in the country. That final four team from 2015 is the best example, talent wise, that team had no business being in the final four.

Agree 100%

Now my concern is this years team has top 3 talent in the country. Anything less than final four is a failure. I wonder if Izzo can step up and win a championship when he's supposed to.

I was at that final four by the way. Got tickets for Christmas and I was like there's no chance of MSU making it but I'll enjoy the final four anyways... Then Izzo's miracle run happened.

2011 was the other year msu was supposed to win it, coming off back to back final fours returning everyone. I had a couple of classes with the girl that caused the team to implode

Everything I’m reading says Bridges out. So I think / hope the line drops another point and I’ll gladly be on state closer to -12.

ML Parlay Michigan State 1H & Georgia 2H (-130)

Correction... had a couple bottles of wine last night and incorrectly graded that ML Parlay as a loss. MSU pushed but the UGA portion covered so I won 0.6u - much better than losing 1.3u.

**DOM_Toretto** · 11-24-17, 03:13 PM

Arkansas +5 vs. UNC (-120)

**DOM_Toretto** · 11-24-17, 04:27 PM

UNC +1 2H vs. Arkansas
I’m trying to buy out here... really didn’t like what I saw 1st half with the heels dominating the boards and getting to the line.

**DOM_Toretto** · 11-24-17, 04:31 PM

Georgia +4 (-120) vs. SDSU
Ohio State -4 vs. Stanford
Florida -2.5 vs. Gonzaga

**krk1030** · 11-24-17, 04:46 PM

usually agree with most plays, didnt get the arkansas one. i have unc. like the next 3

any thoughts on duke and UCF? I dont think much of this wvu team, especially on the road or neutral sites.

Almost had that UT Arlington cover...

Gonzaga -1 vs. Texas
Locking this in now overnight cuz I thought it would open around -2.5 — -3.5. These balanced teams actually match up pretty well against each other. Difference is experience for Zags, and the fact that they battled the entire game vs. a red hot Florida team, while Texas visibly ran out of steam and deflated late vs. Duke. Give me Williams & Tillie over Bamba & Osetkowski. Perkins slight edge over Roach and I don’t think Melson can have a worse game for the Zags than last night.

A loaded Sunday card so more to come but I’ll wait for line movement and more analysis in the a.m.
