524 Purdue (-5) FH
524 Purdue (-9) Game
524 Minnesota/Purdue UN 136
Purdue off a shellacking at Ohio St. They will fall back on their calling card, defense, today.
538 Mississippi St (+3) FH
538 Mississippi St (+6) Game
Miss State led Vandy for almost whole game on Thurs. They were that close. Florida has been shaky, esp on the road. They oftentimes play down to their competition.
545 Saint Louis (+2)
543 Butler (-2')
Butler off terrible loss at home in getting swept by Milwaukee. Valpo has been the Horizon upstart this year. Show them who's boss special.
552 Nebraska (-1')
Arguably 2 of the 3 best teams in the B12. Nebraska lost at Texas Tech on Saturday and now they are favored over ranked A & M? hmmm.
550 Bradley/Wichita St UN 139'
675 Rider (-1')
675 Rider/St Peter's OV 128'
Correlated play here.
Brutal beat on Louisville/UConn Under. I had the right side, there's no doubt about that. I have a receipt for a lucky winner then that I plan on cashing in at some point today.
560 Marquette (-2)
This looks like bounceback game for Cuse on the surface b/c "no way can they lose 4 in a row". Marquette had their chances against UConn on Tues, but came up short. This is like "National Marquette Day" or something so they treat it as a big deal. Should be a good crowd.
561 SMU (+5) (-105)
555 Indiana St (+5')
555 Indiana St/Creighton OV 127
Creighton off two tough road games. One where they blew the lead at Missouri St and the next where McDermott returned to Northern Iowa. Don't know how much energy Creighton will have.
564 Arizona St (+2')
ASU played decent at Washington before the score got out of hand with fouls in final couple minutes. They also played well enough to beat USC at home but came up short. Think this might be their spot here.
568 Georgia/Kentucky UN 140'
UK better defensively. UGA off 2 OT game.
582 Wake Forest (+4)
This is Wake's BEST chance to avoid going winless in ACC.
575 Cleveland St/Loyola OV 131
576 Loyola (+3)
566 Ole Miss (-1') (-108)
Vols always play bad in Oxford.
583 Drexel (+2') (-108)
579 Oklahoma St (-2)
569 Wisconsin/Penn St OV 119
572 Delaware (+4) (-105)
585 Western Michigan (+5')
589 Towson (+18') (-108)
Towson was supposed to play at George Mason at 7 PM and then it got delayed until 9 PM. Their bus was stuck. Game had to be played Thurs at 4 PM. The CAA reprimanded Towson for not being more proactive in changing their travel plans. Towson was dead after all of their travel travails. Only lost by 4 at home to ODU in first week of the month.
587 Tulane/So Miss OV 142
682 Samford (-6)
Greensboro lost in 2 OT on Thurs. Slow-down, deliberate Samford not who you want to see in the next game. They constantly move, screen and cut and Greensboro may not have energy to defend.
592 Northwestern (+6) (-105) FH
592 Northwestern (+10') Game
Shurna likely out with concussion. Carmody is crafty and can ugly the game up.
603 Arkansas (+7') (-105) FH
603 Arkansas (+13) (-106) Game
Vandy was down seemingly all game at Miss State and yet came back and won and covered. They may be feeling a little too good about themselves. Arkansas let shitty Auburn back in the game on Tues.
600 Colorado St/Utah UN 148
595 Cornell (+12)
