College Basketball

Championship Week was probably the the best Tourney week i've ever had. Six days were profitable and the one losing one lost less than a unit. I went (52-26) +100.00 Units even for the week. Alot of people here had record weeks. Let's try to do that again!
NCAA Play in Game. I'll post my NIT plays later.

770 ~ Niagra -8.5
I had some extra time so i figured i would add my thoughts on this one. I really like Niagra here. FAMU has had a real turbulent week and i think that can't be ignored. After winning a last second game Saturday night, they didn't arrive back home in Florida from N.C. until early Sunday morning. The team was exhausted and admitted that they had not slept in their own beds in a week. After waking up Sunday to see the selection show, disappointment was clear. Not only was the team exhausted but they now had to quickly scramble to get a flight this morning out of Florida and into Ohio. They played in this game a couple of years ago and won but they are clearly upset that they are here again. Look for them (After sleeping on the road again tonight) to play a sluggish game Tuesday (imo). I don't think Mentally or Physically they will be in it. The coach has even admitted that this will be a "Tough" one to play.
Niagra on the other hand was also very disappointed to have to play in this game. Most would agree with them on that as they could have easily been a 14 or 15 seed. They on the other hand have come out and said fine, if you want to treat us like that we will have to go Tuesday and show why we didn't belong in this game. Others on the team have said a statement will be made to the committee Tuesday night. Niagra should easily hold the rebound advantage with their height and strength here and they are high flyers averaging 84 ppg over their last 7 compared to 69 ppg. for FAMU during the same 7 game stretch. I think Niagra simply has too much firepower for this team and they will have had 8 days of rest compared to the 2 an already tired FAMU squad has had. If Niagra gets out and running, FAMU could be in alot of trouble. JMO but that's how i see it. Niagra by 16
GOOD LUCK
