6-3 Tuesday, 5-2 yesterday, but forgot to click to ole submit button yesterday so didn't count towards my total.
Arch Madness is where I'll spend my afternoon and here are my two picks for those games.
Indiana St/SIU-Carbondale Under 153.5
These two just met four days ago, and Indiana St shot 77% from 2, and 41% from 3. That ain't happening again. SIU probably doesn't shoot under 30% from 3 again either, but they don't take a lot of 3s as it is. Playing in a much larger gym than normal, throws off depth perception for shooters, and it takes time to adjust. ISU relies on the 3 ball quite a bit, so hopefully a slow start doesn't allow it get close to this number.
Illinois St -5.5
The Redbirds are the far superior team, and the Bears are just ready to be done playing basketball. They've lost 5 straight, and 17 of their last 19. They had their Super Bowl last and gave Drake all they could handle, eventually losing in OT. The atmosphere for these first round games aren't usually that great, so no benefit to either team, but Springfield, MO is about 1.5 hours farther from St. Louis than Normal, IL so could be a bit more Redbird backers.
I'll post the rest but no write ups as it'll be from my phone and I don't want to type that much. GL everyone.
