12/22 Results: Illinois blows.

Sides: 30-20, +11.70
Totals: 19-9, +8.80
DNP: 37-27


12/23 Notes: Absolutely, positively, zero interest in back St. Bonaventure with four starters logging 50+ minutes last time out, including their best player in Nicholson logging 60 minutes. The only top defense the Bonnies have played all year was Cleveland State, and they lost that game by 18 and they only scored 51. Virginia Tech’s defense comes in better than that squad on the defensive side of things, and probably resemble Cleveland State the most as far as makeup of the team. They even shot a better percentage and out-rebounded Cleveland State by a ton. Just a bad spot to log so many minutes and have to come out and play a talented defensive team. Memphis is in a tough spot, can’t touch this game. I’m not sure if they try to run with Georgetown or slow it down. That will depend the outcome. They can do either/or and still lose. Just not sure how they prepared for this one. BYU is obviously a tough place to play and they’re a good squad that likes to push the pace, and they can play defense too. UTEP’s been playing the same way, pretty identical.  Floyd’s been pretty decent with slowing the pace if he needs to, and that’s the only way they can stay in this game. BYU won this meeting on the road last year by 6, and they won it without Fredette, who had mono at the time. St. Peters will be playing without it’s top two players tonight at Rutgers, they might not score over the 40 mark. Like UC Irvine too, but this is probably the style UCLA wants to play at, so I’ll lay off there. I like a few tourney matchups including a few early games, post those when I get lines.

Bets
Virginia Tech/St. Bonaventure Under 136 (1 Unit)

DNP: UTEP/BYU Under 146.5

Are you at all worried about Va Tech putting up 70-80 pts? Looking at their past games it seems like they have been lighting it up against weak competition 88-miss st, 79-penn state (those where also last two games) 72-northridge, 92 Greensboro and really struggling against good teams in the 50's vs Okie state, virginia, UNLV and Purdue. I really hate to go against you but I think these two teams are starting to get their scoring going and have this one capped a little different. would like to get your thoughts.

Definately possible they score quite a bit, but i'm depending on a flat spot for both teams, one who has dealt with a tough schedule that should start to show some wear and tear, and the other coming off a 4OT game. Playing more an angle than anything, but Va Tech likes to play slow too, so, we'll see. GL either way.

Yeah I think in the end I'm just going to stay away. Va Tech Seems to be one of those teams that has screwed me one way or another when I bet them this year. GL

Hey everyone, i'm new to this thread. First off, i'm impressed with the write-ups that you give (nropp) and appreciate that information. I also like that there isn't too much "clogging" in here which is great.  I had a stupid question: what's DNP?  thanks and goodluck everyone

Your math is poor, unless you left out the 15-6 record on totals for the month (or the 25-18 DNP record).

Enjoy your Christmas.

I have no problems backing Bona today as its been a handful of days removed from the OT game. Had it been a day or two, yes, but 4 is enough for me. Its a big game for Bona in so many ways and for the fans. I think they can keep this somewhat close. GL
