Monday
NCAA: +116.63
NBA: +11.38
Total: +128.01
5 - Fairfield +1
This doesn’t seem right, taking Fairfield +1 at home against the 1st place team in the MAAC in Marist, but I like to bet on emotion and this one qualifies. Senior Night, and the chance to win a game at home to eventually get out of the play-in game for the conference tournament. Veteran leadership should prevail here in a revenge spot where they should have actually beaten Marist @ Marist where a foul was called w/ no time remaining on the clock to get Marist the W by hitting free throws. That game also had Fairfield called for 11 more fouls than Marist, and I’d have to believe Fairfield brings it’s “A” game tonight. Also a lookahead for Marist w/ 2nd place Siena coming to town Saturday.
a) Emotion due to Senior Night
b) Emotion due to avoiding the play-in game
c) Revenge
d) Lookahead
2 – Elon/Chattanooga over 130
End of a four game roady for Elon and third road game in 5 days will have an effect of tired legs on defense. Just hoping they score 55-60 to push this over.
2 – Kansas/K. State over 135.5
This is probably going to be close to the final outcome, but seeing that the first meeting tallied 167, and the fact that Kansas has been scoring at will, there’s a bit of value here. I’m basically banking on the fact that K. State gets to 65 here, because Kansas doesn’t score below 70 that often. This is more of a hunch than anything.
1 – Houston +2.5
Considering the Conference USA is only getting one bid, this is a terrible spot for me to play, but S. Miss has Memphis coming up and I think Houston is the more all-around talented squad here.
Lean – Portland +17.5
Well Zaga coming off heart-breaking loss to Memphis and I honestly think the only way they get in is to win the conference tournament. Why do they need a big win over Portland here? Portland’s only lost one game by 17+ in conference, and I’ll roll w/ that. Zaga’s 1-3 last 4, 1-2 w/o Heytveldt and have key games coming up on the road.
Lean – Villanova +2.5
Coaching, and Marquette’s lack of execution.
