Make sure you see the lineups before you make any bets on Tottenham.  They are a prime candidate to rest players in that game.  Not sure they will, but they might.

$$$$ St. Joseph's -2

Seriously, when is the last time this team hasn't covered a spread on the road? They are 9-1 against the spread on away games this year (10-0 SU) and the games haven't been close. Beat GW by 18 as a 4.5 point dog, beat Fordham by 22 as a 7.5 point favorite, beat Rhode Island by 9 as a 3.5 point dog. Meanwhile Davidson is 3-8-1 against the spread at home. These teams are just no where near each other. St. Joes may very well win at least a share of the A10 while Davidson will likely finish in the middle of the pack. This is easy money with a team like St. joes

Agree completely.  Plus this match is sandwiched between their two Europa matches.  They also might be more focused on the league right now.  We'll see though.  Palace on the other hand, have not much to play for aside from advancing here.  They're definitely not safe from relegation, but still 8 points clear.  Lineups aside, this isn't the best spot for them.  

Plus, I can't imagine the price is reasonable for a ML play??

Meh. Gtown 2nd half went awful, lol. Managed to get Louisville at -120 live at the tail end of this big run so hopefully that comes through with Allen now fouled out to make up for it. Duke just doesn't have the depth right now due to injuries, and Louisville is feeding off the crowd.

-3/4   I don't like it , if you win by 1 you only get half the bet..  but its the best lean for tomorrow but it will go to -1 by tomorrow for sure....

possible chance is draw or Tottenham , if they draw they will have another match until some one win.

The horrible loss and play with Monmouth last night. Congrats to all of the Iona players. Great call. 

Today, I am staying close to home with the Mastodons of IPFW. They atop the ATS standings in the country and atop the Summit League standings. They are the league's top offense and top three point team. Nebraska Omaha is near the bottom of the league shooting 3's. This is a home game for IPFW and the three's will be heavy. IPFW is 11-1 at home SU. Another nice ATS stat is they are 11-1 ATS after scoring 80 points. Now, Omaha is no ATS slouch. These two teams scored 207 points in their first meeting, won SU and ATS by IPFW. Got to go with the home team

$$$$$ IPFW -3'
Histrionic personality disorder. It's sad

Improve to 4-1-1. Should be 4-0 besides my stupid over/under play that I never really make.
