Oakland ranks #1 in the nation in scoring and #8 in pace of play. Have already beat Wright State twice this season by 23 and by 10, both times scoring 89 points. Wright has been playing well and has double revenge on their side, but expect Oakland to rally around sixth man Max Cooper whose Dad passed away and come out inspired. Wright State will come out hard, but Oakland's fast pace will cause them to wilt in the second half. I expect a shootout here, and the over looks good as well.


Bubba, give me Oakland -6 as the $$$$ play.

Number at -5.5 at some books.

Hofstra-1.5 $$$$ Play

Got on this early. It has now shot up. I think this will be a hard fought battle for the CAA. The Pride haven't made the big dance since 2000 or 2001 I forget which, But its been a while. This team has been playing much better down the stretch the UNCW and I think they have the better overall starting 5. I think Juan Green has been playing much better late in the season and Gustys should be a tough match up in the middle and should battle the big load in the middle for UNCW. Difference is Gusty has some skill and that 275 pound 7'0 sack of monkey crap in the middle for UNCW does not. UNCW has had 2 hard fought close to the vest games to get here and Hofstra had 1 with W&M. I think if the Pride can contain Flemmings they should be able to pull out a 4 point win here to take the CAA and punch their ticket to the dance.

Hey bubba, saw the lines on the hofstra v. Uncw game tonight. As I have said hofstra is unbetable when wagering on the side. Ironically,
They have covered each the first two games in the tournament. Vegas shocked to see that are posted as a favorite onight. Once again, leaving that line alone .play it at your risk in either end .

The line I like is under 151!for my $$$$ play. Expect a clawing game etween a tired uncw team, ans an exhausted hofstra squad. My recollection that inthe prior two games on each other's home the games came in about 140. Should come about the same. Hoping no overtime. Obviously, rooting for the pride under any circumst

I love the idea of the extra $$$$ play if someone is 4-0 in the week...I know personally if someone rattles off four winners in a row and they have something they really really like I'm open to considering it as a $$$$ play

I don't do a lot of picks on here, but I did have a Flor. Gulf Coast & ML pick last week that hit, but I didn't make it a $$$$ pick for some reason. 
My only $$$$ play did hit last week with Monmoth covering over Rider on 3/4. 

Today I like a hot GB team going 6-2-2 ATS the last 10. Playing in the Horizon League semi's against big bad Valparaiso. Val hasn't played since the 28th, and that was against this same GB team that covered the +5.5 at home. Val has a couple of banged up players to boot. I think this is too many points for Val to cover today, even with GB playing the last 2 days. Give me 

GB +9 $$$$ play

@KyleGT, Gatornation24, Chicag0guy

Thanks for posting your picks but please give a detailed write up on why your pick is a $$$$.  Chicag0guy, I like the BlueJays today too so if you could provide some more insight for your $$$$ that would be great



My bad for not having a better write up. I was trying to get it up in enough time for everyone to play it. Hey at least it won though. Haha

I do like another one though. The line is kinda fishy. But I like the over 2 in the Semouha at Enppi in the Egypt Premier League. 

In the last four games Semouha's game total has been over 4 in the past four games. They can score and they don't really stop others from scoring. 


Enppi in 3 of the last four games the game total has been over 3. They just game up 3 goals to Al Masry.

Both teams can score and don't really do that well at stopping people. Both middle of the pack in the league as well. 

I see this being 2-1 or 2-2 type game. Worse case 2-0 or 1-1. So it's still a push. Good luck guys.

He didn't have any info. I'm assuming the "heavy hitters" are encarnacion and Bautista, neither of which are playing.

New week 0-0, 3-1 last week

Wright st vs Oakland

OU Alum here, i'll just start by saying I love OU tonight.  Greg Kampe knows he must the table in the Horizon league tourny to make the big dance.  That begins tonight.  OU is known for having highly explosive offensive teams, and this years team is the best we've seen.  One thing I like about this team is they have the ability to hit the glass and score inside.  They also have this Felder kid who will be the best player on the floor for this entire tournament.  If you haven't watched him play, you need to tune in toight.  He's fun to watch, and his game is far above the talent of the Horizon league.  Sure, spread at 6 seems fishy given the two blowout wins OU has against Wright st this year.  Not putting any stock into that.  OU is better all over the floor, and has a massive rebounding advantage.  OU rolls tonight, also leaning towards the O 150.


$$$$ play

Oakland University -6

Quoted the wrong person there.  The Under in the Hofstra game is what I was trying to quote.  Last time I try that!

@Forty9ersfan80 and all..

I went back and updated every leaderboard person and people who weren't on the leaderboard's posts from Saturday and Sunday.  I have them all in the spreadsheet and yes Forty9ers fan I do have you at 3-7.  I posted the Top 25 today earlier and will update again tomorrow.

$$$$ IPFW Mastodons -2

IPFW has been good to me all year and I foresee a Championship Matchup against South Dakota State so I will lay the two points here.  Mastodons got beat by 16 against the Bison in there last match up and only beat them by 4 on their home floor.  So why are they laying points here on a neutral floor that will have more Bison fans?  Because IPFW is the better team.  In there last meeting IPFW started the game down 11-0 and were losing by 12 at half.  They only shot 29% in that meeting and still got within 5 points in the second half. I expect them to shoot at least their average of 46% here.  This team can be deadly from three and I hope they are tonight.
