Decided to start ranking my posts yesterday on a 5*+ system. Went 3-1 for for a positive 15*. (I should quit now but I won't!!)
Today's plays:
Harvard -3 8* -Harvard is statistically better in every category but 3 pt %. Harvard beat Dartmouth at home by 13 pts on the 7th. I usually don't like back to back games in the Ivy league as they seem to usually split (my perception, not verified statistically), but Havard appears to be the better team here.
Sagarin Rating -5.76
Calif + 1.5 6* again, Cal is statistically better in almost all categories. Plus Cals stats are a little understated due to the injuries to Powe who missed 4 games. Cal also is coming off an embarrassing defeat by Oregon St. I look for them to bounce back.
Sagarin Rating Cal -3.0
Manhattan -14 5* (buy a pt for -13) Rider plays terrible on the road. Common match ups include St Peter's and Iona. Manhattan beat St Pete 95-82 at home, Rider lost 100 - 104 on the road. Manhattan beat Iona 87-68 at home, Rider lost 59-86 on the road.
Sagarin rating Manhattan -14.91
Non-rated plays for the NBA until I do some research:
NBA
NY -4 (1st half)
Denver ML +230 (small bet, Minny will probably win but Denver could pull off the upset) I've been expecting Denver to falter w/ Camby out, but Carmelo has played exceptionally well.
GL to all...
