Nice writeup nropp, gl tonight

I agree with your under in the Badger game.  No way in hell Bo let's this game generate any kind of pace to it.  He will ugly it up for 40 minutes.  Also, I know Cuse is not a good defensive rebounding team , but I do not think Wisconsin will be able to exploit that tonight.  Reason being, I don't think Bo will allow any more than 2 guys to crash the boards when a shot goes up.  He is so concerned about Cuse in transition and stopping easy baskets that he will make sure there are at least 3 guys back all the times...this game has 58-54 written all over it

Think the pace is up there, also think MSU scrambles to score from other spots on the court if Green's touches are limited, and that should produce a faster pace than usual.

GunToHead...over.

Impressive record for Pitino in the Swt 16 rds.

You've done your homework (as usual).

Agree w/ the over in Marq/Flo, and feel the line should be 150 (70 1st H and 80 2nd H).

Cuse down to 119.5. On an under, I hate to lose two points like that. Will look for a fast start and maybe getting in with a Live! under bet. Or pass.

When they played in 2009 or so, Pitino said the reason they lost was because his team got used to playing against zone defenses and when they played MSU,  they had to adjust to a man on man defense.

Just got the Ville +5.5 on 5Dimes but Cuse is still 119.5.

Marq/Fl at 146 but I expect I can get lower after a slow start to the game. We'll see.

I also like Marquette -2, but might not play it. Speed and strength advantage. Also, might be good to go against the 3 point shooting teams first game on a new, unfamiliar court and environment.

Amazing stuff. Sadly, I'm opposite of every side (play and lean)

When you talk of the Wisconsin game you talk of them relying heavily on the 3. 

I think they hold their own tonight. 36.3% of their points come from 3. They shoot 36% from 3 as well. 

I think with the down time their will be able to efficiently attack the zone. Short corners, stepping the bigs out that can shoot the 3. They can essentially put 4 guys on the outside that can ALL hit the 3. Awfully tough to play the over here but I think Wisconsin will score the ball tonight.

I felt like someone molested me twice when I wagered on Marquette/Murray over for the full game and then hit the 2nd half again with another over wager only to watch both teams fly up an down the court and build enough brick houses to form a brand new subdivision...

Like the over this time around to but you could understand why I feel a bit reluctant or in this case maybe "Still stunned". BOL tonight Nropp & thanks for all the great posts, after posts, after posts, after posts, after posts, after posts. Did I mention all the great posts you continue to make for us all...

Great stuff! Being primarily a MLB guy, I appreciate the homework you do and post for ncaab. A great read, indeed. These games tonight area tough call.  I am looking ahead to the NC state game tomorrow as a big play.  Best of fortunes tonight.
