Okie St. -9.5

YTD: 19-5-2

Lots of games today....some of those lines have to be off....I'll try to find a couple of them

I would have posted Oral Roberts today early on but they are missing their 2nd leading scorer & a real sparkplug for the team (Obi Emegano) so I'm staying away from that one....otherwise no leans & still looking

YTD: 19-5-2

Penn St. -16: I think Vegas wants you to look at the way Monmouth has hung around with Big East schools Seton Hall & St. Johns and say "No way Penn St. covers this"....for me I see Penn St. as a squad with a FAR superior backcourt (Tim Frazier & DJ Newbill are a top 3 guard duo in the Big 10) and a decent young frontcourt (Ross Travis & Brandon Taylor)....this Penn St. roster is much deeper and more talented than their MAAC opponents tonite

Might be back with 1 or 2 more....GL tonite everybody!

YTD: 20-5-2

Penn St. -16

Stanford +6 (bought the hook): I know it's on the east coast but at a neutral site I'll take the points in this one....this Cardinal team might be one of those better than you think type teams as they have gone up against some decent competition this season already (BYU, Northwestern, and up & coming mid-majors Denver and Houston) while Pitt has torn through some cupcakes....I really like the inside-outside game that Stanford brings with their backcourt of Chasson Randle & Aaron Bright combined with the frontcourt of Josh Huestis & Dwight Powell....this just feels like a close one to me that Stanford may even win outright

GL tonite!

Wow did I read that Stanford game wrong

YTD: 20-6-2

Just starting to look at Wednesday's slate now....

Not an official posted play but I'm playing San Diego U. -1.5 early today....I just like that Anderson/Dee backcourt with Jito Kok up front....too much for the Salukis today on a neutral court....official plays to come....

Indiana St. -5: Playing on a neutral court I feel these Sycamores are just double digits better than Tulsa....Jake Odum is leading the charge for Indy St. and is surrounded by a veteran core who are hungry to give Wichita St. a run in the Mo Valley....I think Tulsa's team defense (or lack of it) will be their downfall today as Indy St. comes into this contest averaging about 85 ppg and Tulsa has been giving up about 82ppg....meanwhile points will be tough to come by for Tulsa as they have been putting up a little under 72ppg this season already....maybe I'm fondly remembering Indy St.'s run through a similar early season tournament last year in Hawaii when they knocked off Ole Miss & Miami, FL and gave San Diego St. a decent game as well....they lost no one from that team and I think they might have a run in them like that one in Alaska this year

BOL everyone!
