1 PLAY A DAY RECORD FOR 2009
0-1-0 (-8.05U)
It was only right to start this off with a 2nd half meltdown by ST JOHNS... Anyways tough to think my boys would start 0-2 but i am not surprised i have said this throughout the threads almost 2 weeks ago. What a great game that was. Anyways lets get started for Big Monday...
Nothing looks enticing enough for NBA to make a play so i will layoff.
LOU -6.5 Now is the time we start taking LOU a little bit more serious. They had this same start last year but once they moved into conf. play this team turned it on to another level. I know they have the number one team in the land on deck but this is the BIG EAST and when you have big match-ups like these there is no overlooking you have to come ready to play. IMO it is time for LOU to pick up a credible win and make a statement tomorrow. LOU has been up and down these last several games and what i mean by that is letting teams back in the game that shouldnt come back. They need to come out focused to play 40mins of ball and just have the mentality that they want to embarass this ND team. Which i think is very possible as they do have one of the best Coaches in the country who i am sure has been stressing to close out games. ND's downfall is there depth and trying to run against teams are more well suited to push the tempo. As we saw against UNC, TEX (Even though they escaped here,) and ST JOHNS. I think ND will get a heavy dose of the press tomorrow as Potino loves to do and reall wear this IRISH team down in the last 10 min. LOU will be throwing fresh bodies in out a lot tomorrow to really push this tempo. I strongly think Harangody will get his but Jackson and MaCalarney are going to have to have career games to keep this one close. Something just tells me we see a top 10 team tomorrow out of LOU and they just flat out embarass ND in all aspects. ND should be a very popular play tomorrow with both teams recent performances. Also LOU is 26-7-2 in there last 35 against the BIG EAST...
TEX/OU -4 Interesting match-up here. Battle of the bigs in OU against the guards of TEX. My inital lean right now is OU. As TEX in all of its losses were against good rebounding teams and well they have tough challange tomorrow in just person in paticular. This is going to be another great game to watch tomorrow. I think the thing that concerns me with OU though is there perimeter D as it has been suspect at times and James or Abrams could expose that in a hurry. If Atchley and Pittman can hold there own against Griffin i see no reason why TEX cant pull out a nice W but i hate backing teams that tend to live by the jumper at the college level and thats was TEX does IMO. Will def have sleep on this one has i can see it going either way...
Thats it for now if anything else pops out to me i will let you boys know...
