Perfect at home this season and the wins haven't been close. Add in the revenge factor when they lost as favorites on the road last month. I'm not 100 percent but this will probably be there senior night and they will want to finish with a perfect record at home and do it in dominating fashion. They have made me a lot of money at home and I'm sticking with them and getting on it before the line moves. 

Also for those of you who love at least 1 stat? Akron shot 6 - 11 in the last meeting while Kent St shot 22-32 and only won by 9. That is an a number that won't be close to being repeated. GL to everyone and let's keep this thing moving. 

Thanks to a strong second half Akron saved my day. moving to 4-0 for the week.

Yeah they look like they are in a little funk.  Hopefully they don't give up the offensive boards and give OkSt second chance points again thats getting annoying.  They also need to pound it inside, they are getting to the rim with their bigs just their shots arent falling....but are very close.  Way too many deep jump shots that they are settling for.

take them for 2h then

like this

tex -4 2H $$$$

how am I suppose to give a write up for this?  Well if you are on the game for full and the game is tie by 1H, did you really lose?  No right?  No indicator that texas is losing.  They are still balling and they were still up at one point in the 1h.  This shows that texas is still a ranked team that can take the lead.  2h -4 here is a discount than a -5.5 for the full game right? 

So if you play -5.5 full game, you lose to me if I take 2H -4 by 1.5 points.  That's the discount that the bookie is giving you.  If you don't like 2H -4 then your full game -5.5 is a loser to you too.

The Longhorns are:

  • 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a ATS loss.
  • 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games.
  • 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss.
  • 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games following a double-digit loss at home.
  • 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games overall.

The Cowboys are:

  • 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 home games.
  • 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.
  • 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall.

I still trust in this.

Goodness, I followed TWO NBA bets tonight and neither are even remotely close. (Orlando -13, Wash +8)   If I had time to go through I would thank the two of you for reminding me why I haven't bet NBA for over 2 years.  I'll never bet it again!!!   Went small on them as I felt really terrible about taking either game but the write ups looked really good.......eek!  

Lets go Horns!!!!!

Austin Peay game was the game of the year so far.  I really want to see them make the dance now.  I won't be surprised to hear Chris Horton's name in the NBA next year.  

Looks like Indiana State showed up!

Ill st vs Ind St game is about as rigged as they come.  Refs just called Indiana State for their 2nd team foul with 3 minutes to go in the half.  They've called Illinois State for a defensive foul on a flop kick out the legs shot by Indiana State.  It's been a real screw fest here

Now Illinois State hasn't helped their cause.. They've played horribly

Real screw fest here.  Refs called Indiana State for its first team foul at the 6:50 mark

Fridays, man.  I think the thread's worst day in each of the last 3 weeks has been on the Friday.  $$$$ numbers are not looking good today at all.

At half, Indiana State only up a few despite Illinois State's worst half of basketball of anyone all season.  That was by far the worst I've seen by any team this year.  Got a feeling Illinois State plays better and wins this

I can't see the game, kinda glad.  I don't know how I would have cheered on a team with 17 TOTAL points in a half of basketball.  Reminds me of the score at half of some of my high school girls games we would have to watch before the guys game.

KC - I wouldn't take Indiana State 2h and heres why....

If Illinois State played the way they did just now against any respectable team they would be down somewhere in the vicinity of 20-30 points...the fact they are only down 7 is actually a small victory for Illinois State in itself....Indiana State has been just as bad if not worse but got a couple calls had a couple deep shots fall to give them the lead

If you didn't ride this game with us from the outset I would say go the other way and take Illinois State 2h.  Chances are they are going to make some adjustments offensively but their defense will still play well as it did in the first half.  This is their season, this is a team that beat Wichita State and went 12-6 in this conference.  I dont see them rolling over and if they can come back and take the lead I see them winning the game in which case we should have a good shot of covering the -3.5

Thanks for the info.
