Can you let me know if you do or do not mind me using your name in my thread to distinguish your picks.  Thanks.


Interesting idea. Fine with me.

GL tonight, J.



Rare for me to take a heavily square side but I had a weak moment

Good luck tonight buddy

Minnesota looking clearly the inferior team here by half-time, getting killed by the 3pt shooting, but the Wisc defense has been excellent also. Was hoping they would keep it close so I could get out of the play at half-time but no such luck.

At least I can get out of the NC State play - they are getting KILLED on the offensive glass, doesn't bode well for the 2nd half.

Just got home and haven't seen a second of either game. Very troubling numbers in the Tech-NC State game. I'm staying with it, but hopefully the effort picks up from the Wolfpack.

Seems like Wisconsin put on quite a 3-point clinic in the first half. Wide open looks or contested shots? Either way, Tubby Smith is one of the best in the business at adjusting his defense at halftime.

I'm only following the NC State game on box score, thankfully Georgia Tech are shooting horribly - that's keeping them in the game.

I'm watching Minn vs Wisc, and Wisc have been hitting some miracle 3's, so the score doesn't 100% reflect the actual game flow, but Minnesota are really struggling on offensive, both from the 3 and inside the paint. I just realised I have live betting on this game from Pinny - will gauge second half and hopefully get a chance to at least hedge out if things are looking bad!

taylor hit  a few with the shot clock running down.  Usually not the best shooter in the world!

Fk me - Taylor just keeps hitting them. And Minnesota has a total of 1 - that's right 1 - assist the whole game so far

"Game flow" is what the realistic score should be given how two teams are playing - it should have been a 3-4 point lead for Wisc at half-time not 8, and that was because of a few miracle 3's - could be the difference in the game.

Thanks for the extra encouragement on NC State. Bad start but they asserted themselves eventually.

Big thanks to Riccio for the Elon/Chattanooga over, which allowed me to middle at halftime. Cancelled out another shoddy night to this point.

Final add:

SMC @ Zags -3 (1 unit)

That would probably involve way too much sweating for both of us.

85-69 sounds a lot better.
