SAINT LOUIS +7 200 units

SAINT LOUIS ML +282 120 units

 

I have waited awhile in the madness just being patient looking for the game that I feel deserves to be hammered.  Mich State is good, but they will have their hands full today.  STL loves to run and they can score.  I have seen this team play and I am impressed.  They are athletic around the perimeter.  They a fast when making decisions and are a very unselfish team.  One guy to take a look at is Kwamain Mitchell.  The dude is a ball hawk with 44 steals on the season....thats impressive.  They have good hands and quick feet, and if you are snoozing  they will pounce and drain 2-3 baskets in 10 seconds.  I have seen them go on crazy runs and they hold onto the momentum.  This team has legit skills, and while I know Mich St too has great skill and athleticism.  My money goes to the team I feel should win this outright.  I understand the spread but having watched both these teams play I can assure you that the better team here today is NOT Mich State.

Saint Louis 71

Mich State 68

This write up is a lie.

They do not love to run. They are not very athletic.

Their own Coach said at halftime on Friday 'we are not athletic enough to run with these guys (Memphis), and that's not our style anyway.'

Checkmate.

Please tell me what ranked teams they have beaten. If you are talking about how awesome they are at beating all the cupcakes in whatever conference they play in you are dreaming.

ML LOL

With all the upsets in this tourney their have been i don't know how you can make that comment.  If that were the case Vegas would have the line at lets say 22.5 points like the other day and oh yah didn't NFST win that game outright.

Good luck...I think you are going to be hoping that the spread is covered and you end up ahead. Michigan State can shoot the outside shots (Wood, Green)  Can play inside (Payne, Green) and can control tempo as good as anyone.    I think St Louis is underrated, but so is Michigan State.   Mich State takes this one

Yeah, Majerus said they will do everything in their power to slow this game down today.  So......you know STL better than even Majerus knows his own team?

I saw the same...you got to read between the lines man.....He knows that Mich St runs too....He is trying to get it to a pace where they wont have to run with them.....Maybe his confidence is they run but not better than Mich St....Yes I do not know the team better than the coach.....of course not....But my numbers and gut tell me they run today...and run hard.....How many times have we seen Jason Garret talk about running the ball more....only to have Tony Romo air it out all day....Part of coaching is bluffing....Not tellign your opponent on Nat TV what your game plan is.....So I am calling his bluff.....and letting his team run is their best chance to beat Mich St IMO

What teams have they beat. Beating up the school for the blind in your conference doesn't count

Who has Norfolk State beaten to have waxed Mizz??  C'mon man capping has to go far and beyond who beat who....I only consider that a bit and even then I look at strength of schedule vs Who beat who....You can be a shitty team like Depaul and still beat other teams that would appear to kill you because Depaul plays in the Big East which automatically makes their schedule tough as nails....

i do not see this happening at all , i think msu is way to much for st louis , they might hang around for a half but down the stretch msu will pull away and win this game by no less than double digits , msu is peeking at the right time , if msu lose ill be back later to tell you great call .

Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree, 'cuz I think if STL tries to run today, they may lose by 25+, if they're able to slow it down they could hang around.  MSU can play any style, that's why Izzo has had so much success in the tourney, his teams are always able to adapt.  People think MSU can't run 'cuz the Big Ten is slow and physical.  That's one of the biggest misconceptions in college basketball.  They can run with the best of 'em.  LIU's only chance Friday night was to run, 'cuz they weren't gonna beat MSU in a Big Ten style game, everybody knew that.  LIU got the pace they wanted and still lost by 20+.  IMO, if STL can keep this game in the 50's, they've got a shot, but if MSU is able to push the pace, they run away with this game.  good luck

If you feel STL scores 71 points today, you should take their team total over, it's only 58

This write up couldn't be more wrong.  "STL loves to run" couldn't be further from the truth.  Statistically one of the slowest paced teams in the country, comparable to Wisco and SoFo.

Caps the game at 139, and makes a 120 unit wager on the ML, and nothing on a total that is set at 123.  Clueless.

ST LOUIS runs the clock to 8 on every possession. The only way they can beat more athletic teams is to play hard nosed grind it D...never run...
