If DePaul gets off the mat after another heartbreaking loss in South Bend, all the power to them. Not sure how the Demons keep RU away from the offensive glass, either. Game should be very fast and at times sloppy.

I have no idea how you can bet on that awful South Carolina team but good luck.

No clue. Big rivalry and Purdue should be ready to play after getting eviscerated on its home floor a few weeks ago. Indiana's schedule the rest of the way is rather brutal. If the Hoosiers are into it, not sure 20 is enough given the disparity in talent and Purdue's youth.

I think young and Melvin will be too much for RU up and down offense/def.  In matchups like these I usually fav the home team - I see DePaul def creating turnovers today.

Too many Alabama lapses for them to be laying 12 in conference. Keep in mind, too, that "bad" teams don't scare me.

Oh, and I have a soft spot for motivated Frank Martin teams.

Think so. Probably the most underrated team in the country now from a rankings perspective. KenPom/Vegas fully aware, though.

If memory serves me correctly, they played about as bad a game as possible against Marquette the first time and still took it to OT, right? I seem to remember your guys not being able to make a free throw.

I understand not being scared but you must not have watched them against LSU.  I thought LSU was dumb...

JFen,

I've noticed you've been on East Carolina a couple times this year. I thought for sure you'd like them tonight given 4 points at home vs Southern Miss. Your thoughts please...

utfootball4,

Thanks! What's the status of guard Corvonn Gaines? It appears he played just 5 minutes against UCF and missed the UAB game. Is he injured or were his minutes cut significantly? Is he a factor?

I couldn't help but notice Southern Mississippi's last four road games. Sure they've gone 3-1 but their three wins have come by just 4, 3, and 4 with the lone 2 point loss at UCF.

Southern Miss also lost G-F Michael Craig for the year. He will certainly be missed.

Hoping to hear back from you before the 5PM ET tip.

Not a JFen thread if one joker doesn't call for a bounce back.

Any picks for the rest of the day J?

Chewing on:

Baylor +4.5

Nebraska +8.5 (Michigan State off big win vs. Michigan and they play Indiana on Tuesday. I see letdown potential as well as look ahead potential. Could be value in Nebraska)

San Diego State +4

Your thoughts?
