St Johns Tonight Should Be Easy Money

[VegasInsider]

I say should be...but I really like this young, talented team this year. Lavin did a great job recruiting and has some real talent this year. They landed the best NY Prep since Artest and could challenge for a berth in the tournament his year. Picked 12th in the preseason Big East standings, I think this is too low. They should finish ahead of Rutgers, Notre Dame and possibly Georgetown this year. They're VERY small and will get dominated on the boards all season, but their speed and versatility is some of the best in the country.

That being said, I'm all over St Johns -8 tonight

[LT Profits]

This is a team that should get better as the year goes on, BUT I think they start out slow with no veteran leadership. I can't give this many points with them on opening night.

[No coincidences]

Hard to say.

8 is a very ambiguous number. They could be leading by 4 or 5 the whole way and make a few FT's in the end to win by 9, or they could be up DD most of the game and then allow a backdoor cover.

just ambiguous here though, not in a game 5-10 pt spread

[senseionline]

can u really trust whole bunch freshmen? too much unpredictable

[VegasInsider]

Are people really thinking that college freshman can't be trusted?

These kids have played at high levels in high school/prep/AAU and I don't think they'll start fukking off if they get up 12-15 points. If anything, I think they still have that killer mentality. Get up 15 and finish them off.

With Lavin, Dunlap and Keady on the bench...they'll have these kids ready IMO

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

I love St Johns here I see A big win tonight.

[BigDaddy]

good luck with the play

[BIGDAY]

I'm going with StJohns

[VegasInsider]

[dfberger23]

I am with you on this one.

[Bcatswin]

Im in on this one 2 boys.

[MichaelWaters]

Will and mary return 4 starters. no play or the 9 pts

[sportcap]

st john has only 1 returning starter that avgs 3.3 ppgand their coach is out. WnM has 4 returning starters.

[CollegeOverUnder]

are question is is St.Johns the Kentucky of the BIG EAST. Well nvm Kentucky isn't just composed of all freshmen this year but you understand what I'm saying.

[VegasInsider]

They have 24 assists on 50 baskets in their exhibition game....seems to suggest they're playing alright together.

[Emily_Haines]

I watched that 2nd exhibition game of there's, they didn't exactly blow away that division II team and played their core guys most of the game.

cant compare kentucky to anyone

they've had five 5-star freshmen two years in a row....sj's class is good but not in the same world as that

cal is a c0cksucker but man can he recruit

Yeah, 7 point win vs. a D-III school isn't great, but I think they'll be just fine tonight.

that was a DIVISION 3 team that they just beat by 7, william & mary is a better team.

too close to call so take the OVER 137

[BigDan]

Young team, head coach not on sidelines, terrible free throw shooters. playing a team that can hit the 3 and returns whole team, granted far less talented..

best thing to do is pass but W&M should have every chance to cover this number, whether it be because they are in it throughout or simply because they knock down treys and johnies miss fts down the stretch, there a reason this went from -10 to -8 real quick....BOL

[818z_finest]

i think the easier money is msst over eku... msst has a great front court which should shit on EKU... and dee host can finally play the entire season i expect big things from him this game.

[Madison]

SJ Depth

Monday the Red Storm will have only nine players, up from eight thanks to a recent addition of a walk-on

[VegasInsider]

9 is better than 8

It's good these young players are playing big minutes. God'sgift played 38 minutes the other night

And yes...that's his real first name. Unreal.

[mighty maron]

Will and mary return 4 starters. no play or the 9 pts

Returning starters from a team that went 4-12 in the Colonial last year

[proposition joe]

I'm on St Johns -8 AND the under.

Also on Arizona -13 and the Miss St. under

[MichaelWaters]

Returning starters from a team that went 4-12 in the Colonial last year

yes i know but that is a good conference. and they are picked 6th this year, i wouldnt be suprised if they go 8-8

this line is pretty close i think it should be lower like 5.5, and whomever got it at 10 is sharp. the under is the only play i see though i expect a 32-26 type first half and the under to cover by a handfull

[Da_Beast]

I got the Johnnies by -4.5 for the first half but W&M covering the 8 as the Johnnies will come out strong but not close the game strong (especially with their Free Throw Shooting).

[ponyshowdown]

yea, reverse line movement, no coach, no scoring players back, tons of new players....w+m is the sharp play here.

[marcojuiceman]

Take Arizona for 14

[JamesBrown]

I'm betting on a slow start...took the first half Under 65

[YOUNGBUCK]

Whos gonna stop gods gift their frontcourt is terrible I dont trust either team at this pt but id say Storm 1h

[caseyman011]

In on St. John's for 2 dimes. Lavin+Keady+good recruits=DD win.

[CollegeOverUnder]

Gods Gift is a monster with a very very gentle touch for the game if that makes any sense lol

[jjgold]

I bet the under
No idea why
