Why do you people ask this guy about your picks??  No confidence in yourselves??  Do you're own research and make the pick, that simple..

I mean no offense to NROPP but it's not like he is killin it

thx very much brutha. you are, by far, the most knowledgable capper on this site...

thx very much brutha...

1. Why do even care why anyone asks him anything?  What difference does it make to you.

2.  Did you ever stop to think that this IS part of people's research?  Not just asking Neil his opinion, but just having a general conversation about a game or scenario.

3.  You mean no offense to him, then compare him to a magic 8-ball.

Hi Nropp,

Often check in on your thread for your insight, and thought I might give it a crack with seeing what you thought about any of the games I've listed:

Tenn Tech v. EKY

Davidson v. Chat

Val v. WIGB

Colorado v. Southern California

Florida v. Ol' Miss

If you've already made comments about these games earlier in the thread, my apologies. Just direct me to the post #.

Thanks for your thoughts!

I hope all can see what has happen here? Nropp, has had it with all the childish act's. Do you think for one minute that he has stopped wagering on college bb? I don't. I think he really like's sharing his knowledge with people who wants it, but is tired of the hater's when a game doesn't go the way he predict's.

Why does it have to be like this? What do people get from doing this? Now, I do realize that i'm pissing in the wind here, and that is all good. I just will never understand. 

Nropp, I honestly don't understand why you keep on, BUT I'm glad you do! THANKS    

I mean I don't mean to offend ya'lls God but I was just saying why not trust in ya'lls own eyes....I read through this whole forum and I don't see a lick of info that isn't immediately available on the net

Now if he lived in a certain part of the country and had some info that would be valueable about a specific team I can see the point...for instance, if someone from Hawaii would have had some insight about Zane Johnson not playing a couple nights ago that would have been invaluable.

But look I'm not going to just attack Nropp (didn't mean to in the first place) but also people who post in here...post quality info and maybe it would be worth reading....I mean one guy actually said that USC will force Colorado to take outside shots and if they miss them then they will lose....no freaking way lol

Bet on a home underdog coming off a straight up victory as an underdog in their previous game.

Past three seasons: 59.04% win rate.

Confidence + Motivation + Momentum = Upset.

Any team that fits this situation has this equation working for them.

Confidence is produced when the team gets a victory as an underdog.

Motivation is created by the home court atmosphere.

Momentum is present from the previous victory.

Neil -  Looking at the Iowa-Neb game, With Iowa on 9 days rest, I think McCaffery had these guys work on a few things...With Iowa already tying their win total of all of last year, they finally have a fan base thats pay attention to the team and is making some noise at home, resembling a home court advantage. The Hawkeyes have alot of confidence and looking for an NIT berth.  I think Iowa is poised for a double-digit win.  I feel Iowa will try to push the tempo is this game and see if the Huskers can keep up.  At first I liked the over, but even with Iowa playing 3/4 press and running up and down the court, I think Nebraska on their end tries to slow down the pace and just doesnt hit their shots...Im looking hard at Iowa -4.5.  Your take?

who the fuck asked you for your opinion!!
