Nropp any interest in Oregon State?  They have looked good of late and Zona has been far from impressive.  Maybe an outright OSU win?

I'm probably not the right guy to be asked any question on Oregon State. I think they suck. They're coming off the upset win over Cal, and then the 4OT marathon loss. Gotta be a letdown coming I would think.

In a fast tempo which this game should be played at, have to side with Zona's guards. I won't be touching it, but I don't see OSU coming in here and winning, no. Two road victories on the year come at possibly the worst two schools in D-1 (Towson, Chicago St).

No interest in Duke. Like George Mason, but no interest in going against Drexel at home.

Manhattan can score. A lot of teams can score on Iona with the pace they play at. Total scares me. If any of these teams watch the game film of Niagara, they'll notice that the way to beat Iona and slow them down is to go zone. Manhattan's shown a bit of it, but their full court pressure is tough to drop back into a zone if Iona beats it, and Iona should be it. Think the overs safe, but I'd almost think if Masiello has any brains, he won't press and get into a half court zone if he wants to compete.

Hawaii's lone road win this year came against Hawaii Hilo. Fresno's been on the road for what seems like all year, but the few home game's they had they have looked much better than on the road. Team's seem like a mirror image. Concerning the matchup, Hawaii needs to get the ball inside to help the flow of the offense, and the way Fresno pressures the guards, it's going to be tough to get the ball inside + they turn the ball over a ton. 

Will have more on Zaga later.

Arizona State sucks, but sandwich spot for Oregon.

And will have more on Loyola MMT later.

She's in a good spot I think and I don't see any value. Game has the possibility of being a bit more up and down with the two styles each team brings, but I think coming off a few losses that the VCU defense is going to slow the pace a bit.

Why don't you quit asking questions until he makes his selections?

Hey Neil, after you do your own writeup, tell me what you think of the Cal/Colo total.  And by the way, do you get to see much west coast hoops?   Any opinion on Nevada?  Big line tonight, but they've played very well lately (weak conference though).

Always appreciate your insight.  Best writeups on the web!

Won't have time for write-ups today unfortunately. I like Cal and Colorado to go over, and am playing it. Two decent offenses that should show up. 

Didn't look at Nevada.

Like Drexel at home, don't like anyone trying to defend Davidson. WCU needs to slow it down if they want to hang.

1) Yes
2) Yes
and
3) Yes

Think Samford game analysis, only substitute Samford with a better offense and defense. If Appy beats me with a good shooting night from 25 feet, then I can live with a loss.
