N. Ill -4 2nd half

[odysseym]

Already lost the 6-game combo thanks to Ohio losing at home v. Miami-Ohio. Making up for it with N. Ill coming back in the 2nd half @ lowly Eastern Michigan.

....looking good >> up 10 with a minute to go.

Got it good! A nice 15 pt swing to cover the 4-pt 2nd half spread. Just like last night's Montana comeback at Home v. lowly E.Washington, it was a sweet comeback.

Now, I'll wait for the Syracuse game and see if they're down at the half to Seton Hall. The gift of the day would be if Davidson were down at the half at home vs. Princeton.

... Syracuse up by 4 at the half so the -5.5 for the 2nd half is a no play.

Waiting for the St. John's line for the 2nd half. The Johnnies are currently down 11 to WV with seconds left in the first half.

Playing with emotion in their home Garden, if the line's good, I'll bank on the Red Storm to at least make a run in the 2nd half.

Line came up St. John's -1.5. I'm still a little iffy, so I'll only go in with .5 unit just to support the local team!

..not looking good: Johnnies down 16 with 8:42 left. They need to lose by no more than 9 to cover. Time for the comeback?

... Whoa, that was some comeback. Still lost by 5, but St. John's came as close as 2 despite being 18 in the hole. Not bad for a young team. The 1/2 unit in my account is just a bonus.

So far YTD: 3-1 for 5.5 Units

Nice 2H hit!

Thanks DJ, I usually try not to chase after losses, but N. Illinois was already part of my original parlay, so I had a good feeling about it, especially with them being down @ Home to a crap team like E.Michigan.

Syracuse 2nd half line of -5.5 too high to play, but I'm waiting for the half-time scores on Georgia Tech @ Boston College and Princeton @ Davidson to see if there's any value there.

Nice hit on the NIU 2h play. Easy money there for ya!

Thanks Cuse. So far, 2-1 today, with the N. Ill 2nd H being a 2-unit play.

I've also enjoyed reading through your thread and getting insights from other informed posters. I'm rooting for the Orange, especially since they've done poorly on the road the last few times. The Hall did pull off the upset last time out, so it's good to see them hanging around. But expect G-Mac to come out strong in the 2nd half. Either better shooting or assists, but something to lead the Home favorites to a critical W. Will it be 9.5, can't say, so for those who made this a No-play, it looks like the right move.

Enjoy the 2nd half and keep an eye out for the 2nd half on Georgia Tech/BC & Princeton/Davidson. Probably both no-plays, but in the event that the visiting Dogs are up at the half, look for the Home Fave to cover the 2nd.

>> Boston College w/ a 6pt lead at the H. Line shows BC-6 2nd half. I wasn't too impressed w/ BC and after seeing Syracuse go down to Seton Hall, I think I'll stay away from this one too. Only game left to watch is Princeton/Davidson unless someone's got some insight on the Washington/Stanford game.
