Why isn't Kennesaw St +9.5 (# 318) playing against N Florida (#226) a play? I'm on Kennesaw State based on Kine's system?

Nevermind my question above.... I see that both of these teams do not usually have lines associated with their games?
JV squads...

Still playing Kennesaw State, as it fits the system except for the fact these teams usually don't have lines associated with their games

Excellent point!

Us retards know that the "almost plays" have been hitting at a pretty decent rate. Good Day!

Tracking the System using the Kines criteria, since Saturday, Feb 12, have the record at 9-9 ATS with 4 SU ML wins. The two saturdays have been rough, going 3-8 ATS.

S. Alabama  a 48-47 winner over #175 Denver (just outside the System criteria) was a nice win. Would have been even sweeter played on the ML.

Don't see any System plays for Monday.

I think that's a No Play since both teams do not look like they get lines on the regular.

336 Maryland Eastern Shore at 250 Morgan St. -14.5

These teams are both in the MEAC......who are not excluded from the system.  I think this would be a play.
Do these teams both get lines on the reg?

i saw that too.  it fits all the criteria except the fact that they do not get regular lines.  i checked the matchup page on covers and each team had only 1 lined game so it would not fit the system.

Still playin' it though...

+14.5 is alot of points for (2) shit teams! 

Go Maryland Eastern-Shore  as opposed to the rival Maryland Western-Shore?

Just stay within +14 points in this JV game!

Maryland Eastern-Shore is not a system play but I like it as well and the "almost" system plays (whether by spread, kenpom ranking, or conference) has been doing very well
