At first glance, I really like San Diego State to win straight up ( hell yeah Beholdah) along with UAB over Kentucky. I also like Nevada to cover the # vs Montana. As far as the games you posted IMO the Cuse game could go either way & Wichy St should be able to handle Seton Hall. I have a gut feeling that G Mason could make a game of it vs. the Spartans. Bol whatever you play:thumbs:

Actually you've made several smart ass comments, even when you have nothing to back it up except for +0 units YTD...

How about this instead. I disagree with your Syracuse pick. Infact, I have Texas AM going to the sweet 16 rather easily. :thumbs:

I would take Sand St. to win the first game money line.
And Bet UCLA to be in the Final Four. Nice odds for the money!!!!!

Boy, the BC train filled up fast in the last couple of days didn't it? No one was talking about them and now it seems a majority of the people have them in the Final Four. It also seems like Villanova is getting absolutely ZERO respect (possibly because of the uncertainty of Ray). Seems like alot of UConn, Duke, BC, and UCLA in the Final Four.

When I saw the brackets, a little light went on with those 4 dancing at the end, but I'm turning that light off for sure as UCLA and BC are getting pounded predictionwise seeminlgy every time you turn around. Nova and the experienced guards keep looking better and better.

I like quite a few of these. But didn't finish the season well at all, so take it for what it's worth.

G. Wash -2.5
Oklahoma -2, and Under 134.5
Syracuse -1.5, just too hot right now
Iona +6, not sold on LSU
Boston College -8
Montana +7 and Moneyline
Washington -6, (Biggest play I see right now)
Alabama +2 to surprise again
Mich. St. -4.5
N.Iowa\G town over 112.5
Pitt -5.5 (2nd Biggest Play so far)
Kansas -8 ( Bradley just can't keep up. 3rd best play)
S. ill\ W. virg under 116

Good Luck to all, hope we all can cash in over the next few weeks.

Heres what im likin at first glance

10*
S. Alabama +9 - too many pts for young fld team to be layin
Arizona -1.5 - take care of tucker and who else does wisky have?
Penn +15.5 - TX lets teams hang around
Cuse/TXAM Over 121.5 - Both teams can score in bunches


5*
Marq -2 - Gonna be good in tourney, underrated in my opinion
Mich St -4 - If GM guard is still out pound this one
NC Wilm +2 - GW been struggling as of late
TXAM +1.5 - Cuse was playin to get into the tourney, they're happy just getting in


also looking at LSU, Iowa, GW/UNCWil Over 131, and Fld/S.Bama Under 144

any thoughts???????

Winthrop +8 vs. Tennessee


I'll have a few dollars on the moneyline on this one, and will have it on all my sheets... Tenn is a WEAK #2 seed and might overlook this one.. I don't remember too many 15/2 games having only 8 pts being given...

***QUOTE***Cuse/TXAM Over 121.5 - Both teams can score in bunches


Dude seriously not bashing you here, BUT trust me, aTm does alot but scoring in bunches is not one of them.take away there joke of a OOC schedule here is there big XII scores.

1/03 @ Pacific L 56-63
1/07 Texas Tech * W 63-55
1/11 @ Oklahoma State * L 77-79
1/14 Oklahoma (22) * L 44-45
1/18 @ Kansas State * L 54-58
1/21 @ Iowa State (OT) * W 86-81
1/25 Kansas * L 73-83
1/28 Baylor * W 72-70
2/01 @ Oklahoma (18) * L 63-71
2/04 @ Texas (7) * L 70-83
2/08 Colorado (25) * W 61-58
2/11 Oklahoma State * W 46-44
2/18 @ Baylor * W 64-60
2/21 @ Missouri * W 54-51
2/25 Nebraska * W 66-55
3/01 Texas (6) * W 46-43
3/04 @ Texas Tech * W 75-59
3/10 vs. Colorado W 86-53
3/11 vs. Texas (8) L 70-74
• 3/16 vs. Syracuse 8:40

aTm averages 65 in CONF play while giving up 63.

the last 3 games they played are misleading. i think the over is a trap here.SU def will force aTm to shoot the 3. altho they have shot 50% or better the last 3 games, as a whole they are 36% on the yr.i guess depends on which team shows up BUT THEY CANNOT WIN A SHOOT OUT WITH ANYONE PERIOD.


***quote***TXAM +1.5 - Cuse was playin to get into the tourney, they're happy just getting in

right on, i think they blew there load getting here as well.


GL with your play, hope it cashes for you.

Thanx for info bigbag, have to look at this one little closer as the last three games are misleading for TXAM scoring. GL!

Is the O/U 127.5 or is it 121.5?

Cuse gives up a bunch of points, generally speaking. Either number is probabalytheir lowest total of the year I would guess (even the GTown game was 129.5). I don't know what to make of that number (whichever it is). I agree with bigbag that A&M often struggles to score until late, and the Cuse zone has eaten Big 12 teams alive (see their championship run) because Big 12 teams just don't see anything like it. It's an interesting debate.

FINAL EIGHT
Memphis
Georgetown
UConn
Duke
Texas
UCLA
Villanova
Michigan State

UConn and Memphis have the most physical talent of any of the teams I have seen play.

FINAL4

Duke
UConn
Georgetown
Memphis


I do not see much margin of difference between teams. Lot of upsets possible of course. I think coaching will count for more this year than in years past...there are not many teams that will just win on talent alone...this sets up to be a great, great tourney with a lot of extremely close games.GL guys!:gulp: :gulp:
