I'm nervous about it because of how Milwaukee played vs. ND. I've been trying to stay away from o/u's, they always kill me.

Main reason for Milwaukee -2 is they seem to have more success in Neutral Zone Courts and the players are more athletic on that team, they also tower over Murray players so that helps.

Also, they only lost to ND by 8, who is a T25 team while Murray St. lost by 11 to a UGA team, I'll definitely take Milwaukee over Murray St. for the first play of the day, let's start off with a  nice win here fellas.

i like your insights, hope you keep posting like this through the day and from now on...have you looked at the 230s yet?

Really liking St johns to keep it under 16 at a neutral tournament. Vandy (as good as they are) still have the new bugs at a hawaiian tourney, no blow outs early in this tourney usually right?

yeah the o/u's are pretty nuts, unless it's football, the trends are a little better in that sense.

I'm liking st johns as well, 16 point spread is huge. I'm a bit nervous about this play though because the books don't give a team that many points for no reason... will look more into it before I make a decision

but for sure Milwaukee -2 for 1.5 units ($165/$150) I should start an actual thread that shows my wins/losses moving forward.

That Murray/ Georgia game was much closer than the final score. with 4:11 left Murray was up 2. It was one of those games that just wierd stuff happened down the stretch. Pro's and Con's to both teams in this one. UW-M has edge on the inside, a good 3pt shooting team, outstanding ft shooting team, horrendous defensive team ranking #325 in fg% defense and #259 in 3fg% defense. 

Murray good defensive team ranking #18 in fg% defense and #157 in 3fg% defense, average offensive team and good from the line. This is a tough one for me. Hate to go against a good ft shooting team in what should be a close game but also hate to go against a clearly better defensive team. Just my take. G/L

Trucifer...thank you for making my pick on this game. Your thought process on the margin of victory for the two teams in their losses was spot on. Believe it or not it's a solid way to cap a game. I'm being serious here. The only difference is that I'm taking Murray St and the +1

Thanks again for that angle. Works almost every time in these type of games. Needed some cash
