Tues NCAA Hoop

[rwall]

I looked at today's slate and thought I would just take the night off. As the day went by I disovered that was an imposibility. Why lose an Income Earning Opportunity.

I don't follow the Missouri Valley so I will play small.
Taking a chance here.....

Illinois St. +2 over Drake
Ill St lost last time out to first place team Wichita st. Ill St actually had a 7 point lead at half. Then Wich st shot the lights out, 64% in the second half. They ended up 51% fg for the game and 50% from the 3.
Drake won their last outing beating N. Iowa by 9. Drake in that game had a 39 -11 free throw advantage. 25 of those in the last 9 minutes to hold off their competitors.
Ill st beat Drake on 1/15 by 13.
I believe there's some value here with Ill St losing last out to a huge effort and Drake winning a game that should have been a little closer then the score says.
Now the bad news...The home team here has covered 6 of the last 7. (A trend is your friend, but a trend must end)

Manhattan -7 over Siena
Going with Buddy Bry here. Playing against Siena not on Manhattan

Good luck to all.
2-1 Last night. I hope to continue, but I think the blind squirrel expression would be appropriate here.

Good luck Rwall, looks like some solid selections.

GL tonight Rwall, Siena should get waxed tonight. Word is Manhattan is w/o 2 players tonight? I dont think it matters. Manhattan could play suit up their cheerleaders and still whip Siena.

BOL

GL tonight!!!

[rwall]

Very Vigorish
1-1
Manhattan lost outright?....Yeah right..The next thing you're going to tell me is Barry Bonds is going to make up some lame excuse like..I'm having an operation so I won't be able to workout or play in the spring and that is why I'm so much smaller.
huh! Who'd believe that?

Ill St won by 1 (I didn't stutter there)
As usual thanks to all for the replies and well wishings.

THIS JUST IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Barry Bonds is having an operation so he wont be able to workout or play in the spring. He may be coming into camp smaller tho.

Holy shit!!! That is spooky.
I still can't accept Siena with a win.

What

a whacky night! Agreed with you on Manh and waffled off of Ill St as the numbers pointed to a major blow out for them over Drake. Coaching and home court not enough to overcome talent! Good call on IST.....Jaspers are a shell but did not know that they had a couple players suspended/out according to a post here.....

GOOD LUCK ON YOUR PLAYS TOMORROW!! Gv

rwall,

Sorry about the Manhattan play, I had no idea that a siena team like that was gonna show up. combined with a collapse of the jaspers.
