Go back and read the thread. I had no interest in the game you have mentioned. And I quote:

"Wake Forest, it's a decent spot I guess w/ an FSU letdown. But not interested in backing that offense against this FSU defense. Totally different ballgame than the last time they were seen against Boston College"

It's good to know that you liked Florida State. I must have missed your thread you started with that as a selection. And you're 139-2 record. Start a thread, share your thoughts. That's what this place is about.

Yah, that Hawaii game is interesting to say the least. Which USU team will show up? They've been hit or miss and just had a pretty rough roadtrip. Should be a nice bounce-back for Utah State, but I think the #'s too high. Hawaii in a slow pace; not sure I can trust that defense in that case.

Rutgers has also beaten Uconn and Notre Dame at home, two teams that are much better than any of those Ole Miss wins at home.

Tennessee's home performance is also better than Ole Miss.

Please, no comparisons of Florida's offense and Mississippi State's offense in this thread. I was on Ole Miss that game. Good spot for them. This is not.

At the time UT beat UF they did not have Jarnell Stokes. They since beat UCONN with him. UT no better home record than Ole Miss before the UF win. Ole Miss gets their chance tonight. Also, UCONN and ND win came after UF win for Rutgers. UF win a confidence builder?

Reggie Bullock. He was the 6th man, but is basically a starter off the bench...6'7 beast of an athlete. Kind of a Jackie Manuel from years past, but can score...Great offensive and defensive rebounder. The guy gets on the floor.

Averages about 18 mins, 8.4 ppg...

I could see him having a BIG night tonight if his nerves are settled...

Valpo struggled with them the first meeting and has the showdown with MKE, with revenge on tap. Nice situational spot for Wisky GB if they can drum up some offense like they did in the first meeting.

Mini-sandwich for EIU. Game should be a snail.

Like Weber, SCST has nobody to defend Lillard.

Fullerton's offense has the ability to go off at any point and Northridge just allowed Poly to score 100 for crying out loud.

Just not sure this is the spot having LBSU on tap.

As for Georgia Southern, not sure it's the greatest of spots. They upset COC at home, then went to 2OT with The Citadel, and this is the first time hitting the road after those. Not only that, but they're going to defend a rather weird offense in Samford. Then again, Samford has Davidson coming in next. Tough spot and another sharp #.

Pace will be there, not sure the Ole Miss offense will be.

NROPP-

YOUR THOUGHTS ON LA TECH?   I saw someone else brought it up but I didn't see your take on it.

 

also, are you giving out your picks anymore or just giving your advice? 

 

Thanks for your time

Thoughts on South Dakota State @ Oakland,I know Oakland has the revenge card. These teams dont play dick for defense but it seems like SDS size at the guard position could give Hamilton a little trouble, there top 3 Guards in terms of minutes are all 6"4.

Thanks

Thanks in advance.

Home Team Parlay: Coll Charleston, Utah State, FAU, James Madison (1.2/1 roughly). Risky.

Like Florida so far, haven't had time to go through the card.

Think you're safe. BC blows.

Would just be scared laying a big # in a low possession game. Little wiggle room there.

Nropp, you certainly have a handle on the games all over the country, but don't you think you might do better just specializing in a few select conferences rather then spreading yourself out?  It would seem it would much easier to make a selection .

Thanks in advance. 

Gonzaga ahead of BYU is a bit sketchy, but Zaga's 2nd team is just as good as Portland's 1st. No clue what's going on at Portland as they've sort of done a complete 180 this year. They're playing much faster now and aren't using the three-pointer within the offense which has always been a staple of the Reveno offense. Should be plenty of scoring opportunities for Gonzaga, and few and far between for Portland. Just scared of the massive looksydaisy.

We can go back and forth about who beat who and when they beat them and where they beat them.

Give me something as to how Ole Miss scores with Florida tonight, and how they stop them from scoring. Give me offense. Give me defense. 

I can agree the home court certainly should help both the offense and defense, but the teams they've beaten at home this year suck, outside of the big win against Mississippi State (which again, was a spot I played Ole Miss).

Portland very inconsistent team. Is the chalk too heavy on Gonzaga, or is there some lookahead to BYU?
