    banker ncaa hoops holiday tourneys thread!
    Well boys I love this time of year for college hoops and I’m gonna use this thread from now thru turkey day. There some very strong angles in some these venues I have played for years, let ya’ll down w my 3 nfl posted plays Sunday and I’m gonma make it up to ya’ll this next week and a half of wonderful hoops!! Let the good times begin!!!

    Akron/clemson under 141.5.. under groce Akron plays at a snails pace averaging almost 20 seconds per possession which up a few seconds from their typically slow pace. Don’t let those high scores zips been putting up vs up tempo garbage defenses. Huge step up in class vs a clemson team
    Who also takes their time on offense and defense is their calling card! Unless tigers shoot lights out expect them to be right around low 70s and hold Akron to bout 60. So have plenty of room for error in a nice early tip!!

    Illi st +4.5... I really like this squad who bringing all their big time players back from a team I thought could have done damage if they got in last year, injuries kinda derailed their season but not this year. Uga very inexperianced and think that be the difference here. Imo we get the better team catching points.

    Illini/gtown over 160.5.. pace pace pace. After losing under in Illini 1st game of year I used that loss to learn a lot, they gonna press this year and play up tempo w some capable scorers, cashed the over vs gtown and this only 4 points higher against a zags team that will be more than happy to run w them! Notoriously friendly rims in Hawaii which should help our cause here. Zags will break the press and just light this Illini team up in a game i think they break 100! This thing could very well be 20 points short of where it ends up when all said and done!!

    Still working on card, pulling a all nighter so I can post anything that gonna tip before 5 central as wont be home to post more games till round 7..

    Auburn -10.. not exactly my fav thing to lay dd chalk but there one thing that sticks out like a sore thumb here. Bruce pearl team has been bombs away from behind the arc this year and X 3 point defense been terrible!! Auburn is also forcing a lot of turnovers which doesn’t bode well for a X team who’s point gaurds are turning it over once every 4 possessions!!! Tigers will turn them over and expect their shooters to run to their spots and drain 3’s!!

      Ucirvine/utsa under 140.5.. class relief for utsa after getting worn down by the big-12 Oklahoma schools. Defensive gm w limited possessions.. anteaters w further travel and 1:30 eastern tip means Irvine internal clocks be thinking it a super early tip. You could go 1st half under or go game and look for middle opt is we get slow start!

        Finally, glad to have your input on some of these games!

        i will mention that if Illinois st play the way they did adding Chicago st. they will struggle against this UGA squad.. but I do agree they are inexperienced.

          I did watch Illinois ST vs Belmont and Chicago ST. Against Belmont they played really fast basketball, hitting many 3's and 0 defence. Against Chicago State they were very lucky. Very sloppy on the attack, running too much time on the clock and taking bad shots must of the time. They were also bad on defence, they were just lucky of playing against a talentless team.

          I don't even know what to expect from this game vs Georgia. They will probably play better since they are facing a bigger program and the levels of motivation will be higher. I guess i will try the over but i have so many doubts.

                  11AM in an empty arena.

                        Bank, how do you calculate time per possession? Does site calculate possessions, or are you manually doing it factoring in to's/ft attempts and fg attempts?

                          Like them all! Xavier looks pretty mediocre this year.
                          Illinois state I think has geared up for this game.
                          I think not only can zags score a ton, but illinois with a full squad tonight will be able to score on the zags as well.

                                      I kinda like the over in the Irvine game. UTSA is an above average tempo team. UCI tends to play to opponents tempo and should be able to fairly easily....

                                                Man I got Auburn -11 and now it’s down to -9.... but if things go the way I expect this will be a relatively easy win for Auburn up dd most of game and hopefully close out by 16 or so.

                                                  Auburn can score in bunches, so it may not matter for you. But that is a big # for them to cover on a neutral site against a quality opponent. I know Xavier has lost a lot, but they still got quality players. I'm not playing it but I'd lean taking the points in this game.

                                                      as a guy who used to have season ticks to xavier.... this new coaching staff worries me. I have only seen x as double digit under dog to uc. That is why i went with over. thanks bank

                                                        Guys, when I take unders in hoops I only take the 1st half under. I do it to avoid the late fouling and possibility of OT.

                                                        Plus, if it goes over in the 1st half there’s a much higher probability that it goes over for the full game

Bruce pearl team has been bombs away from behind the arc this year and X 3 point defense been terrible!! Auburn is also forcing a lot of turnovers which doesn’t bode well for a X team who’s point gaurds are turning it over once every 4 possessions!!! Tigers will turn them over and expect their shooters to run to their spots and drain 3’s!!
                                                              Great thread Banker, I'll try to hang out here this week.

                                                              I'm on Xavier +9.5. My Hoops plays aren't to far away from the MLB Contrarian Fund style of betting.

                                                              I have Auburn winning 78-75.

                                                              From the market info I see, there is decent volume on this and the public, or the tickets, are on Auburn while I see the money on Xavier at about the same percentage.

                                                              This difference is likely why we've seen the line drop in a bit of RLM fashion. My forecast puts me in line with the bigger money that differs from the higher tickets.

                                                              From my sources, both money and tickets are pretty heavy on the Over. The Under is on the contrarian radar, but I'm not on it, even the I forecast 10 less points.

                                                              I haven't bet any Totals yet this Hoops season, haven't started the Totals Fund yet.

                                                              Good Luck today.
