Thur 1/27/11 CBB

Thur 1/27/11 CBB 20-16 last night (34-24 week) 596 Towson/George Mason UN 141' About to tip. Sorry. Last minute decision.
Reason I played this. This was delayed b/c of weather and was supposed to be played last night. Having a delayed game often leads to some sluggishness. The teams were ready to play and then have game delayed. They usually aren't as ready to play when the game finally happens.
508 Virginia (+4') 508 Maryland/Virginia UN 132' Correlated play here. Maryland too inconsistent to lay this on road even in a bad year for ACC. 510 Michigan State (-10') (-105) Perfect spot for State. Lucious kicked off team. MSU has been disappointing, but they can get right here. Michigan is dreadful on the road. They got drilled at Indiana and Northwestern. If they don't hit shots, they can't stay in the game. MSU gave up 86 at Purdue on Saturday. Expect Sparty to shore up their defense. 512 Hofstra/VCU UN 139' 519 W Kentucky/FIU OV 151 574 Chattanooga (-8) UNC Greensboro has won 3 straight after being 0-15. Chattanooga off 32 and 26-pt losses to Wofford and Furman on the road. Temptation is to take the dog that has won 3 straight with a seemingly high #. I don't give into said temptation here. When a losing team has a little success, they tend to become complacent and become satisified that they got off the schneid. 575 Marist (+13) (-105) 580 Eastern Kentucky (+1) Defensive home dog that got beat by near 30 at Austin Peay in December. 601 Oral Roberts (+12')
575 Marist/St. Peter's OV 119 577 Rider/Iona OV 149 582 Tennessee St/Morehead St UN 129' 594 La Salle (-3) (-105)

521 Vanderbilt (-6') Miss State is good enough to beat up on SEC West teams, but not a smart team like Vanderbilt.
534 Louisiana Tech (+1') 532 UIC (+10) (-105) 535 Boston College (+9') FH 535 Boston College (+17) Game 527 South Alabama (+4)(-103) 526 UL Lafayette (+4) 584 Samford (+2') (-109) 605 So Utah/N Dakota St OV 144'
537 USC/Arizona St OV 123' 540 Arizona (-7') 544 Indiana (+4') There has been a lot of discussion about actually pulling a couple of the IU players' scholarships for their ineffectiveness and bad play. IU, slightly more dreadful last year, covered both games vs. Illinois and should have won both outright. 545 DePaul/So Florida OV 133' 588 E Illinois (-3') (-108) E Illinois blew big lead at Tenn Tech and lost in December.
547 Northridge/Irvine OV 154 559 Oregon/Stanford OV 125' 552 UCSB/Cal Poly UN 117 550 San Jose St (+5') FH 550 San Jose St (+9') (-102) Game Utah St is now ranked. San Jose winless at home in the WAC and have lost several close ones. This is the least likely win for them. Oftentimes, least likely covers are the ones that happen. 564 Fresno St/Nevada UN 134' 566 Saint Mary's/Gonzaga UN 149 555 San Francisco/LMU OV 138 592 Eastern Wash (-3)
507 Maryland/Virginia OV 68' 2nd H 47 at half. Game under is 132'. 116 through 132 are winning numbers.
576 Marist/Saint Peter's UN 66 2nd H 69 at half. 119 Over. 120-134 winning #'s
