These are some decent points, but we have two teams with completely different mind sets in this game tonight.  Heels are looking to just not get embarrassed again on national T.V.  I honestly think that this team can't handle any sort of pressure at all.  On the other hand, as of stated GA Tech will mean all business tonight.  Peackock is another player that will cause match-up problems for the Heels, along with Lawal and Favors.  Shumpert is probably a little better than Drew, but both teams have less than stellar guard play.  Line is up to 4 already, which is not a surprise.  The fact that Tech won the first two meetings doesn't concern me because the Heels have been mentally destroyed after be embarrassed  in Cameron.

Thanks for all the support fellas 
Always feel free to play devil's advocate in my thread, as it spices things up a little bit.  I don't get offended if you disagree with me, as that is part of the fun of this site.

Also Locking in:

G'town +6 (2 Units)
  The Orange are no doubt a tough match-up for any team, as they play great team ball on both ends of the floor.  The zone can be susceptible if you are hitting from distance, and I think Clark, Freeman and Wright will find some success from beyond the arc in this one.  G'Town seems to be coming together after the news about Austin Freeman, and they are licking their chops to get another chance at this Orange squad.  Should be another great Big East battle, and I will gladly take the 6 points.  

UPDATED CARD:

GA TECH -3.5 (5 Units)
G'Town +6 (2 Units)

    This team loves playing tight games, and they can match-up with Nova's guards well.  Should be a back and forth game, but I like MU's defense more than Nova's and I will take the underdog yet again in this Big East tourney.

thank you fellas, let's all have a nice march run 

Some Leans for the Night slate:

GA +1.5 (solid lean, Ark. is fading and Georgia can play)
Baylor PK
Cincy +9, maybe ML +375 (this team is dangerous)
OK State +4.5
Cal -10.5
SDSU -10


Clearly won't be playing all of these, in fact may only play 1 or 2.  


Come out strong here Marquette

time to watch my heels implode again.  Likely going to add UGA +1.5 and Cincy +9 to the card.  Want to see how things are shaping up before I place anything else

Adding:

Cincy +9 (7.5 Units)
  The way this tourney is going this seems like a rock solid pick.  This team will compete hard on the boards with WVA and stephenson likes putting on a show in front of his home fans at the Garden.  Cincy has the size to control WVA inside, and they seem to be gelling nicely coming into this game  Should be a close game, so the 9 pts. is plenty.

GA TECH -3.5 (5 Units)  
Heels imploded, but I did not expect to sweat that game, in fact I thought it was over for a bit.  Very weird to bet against your team in a close game.  Not sure I like it

3-1 Today (+8 Units)

Pending:
Parlay- Gators ML, SDSU ML, AZ State ML (1.5U pays 1.8)
Cincy +9 (5 Units)
bought off 2.5 Units from original bet

Cincy +9 (5 Units)  lose .3 in juice from partial buy out
damn tough loss for Cincy, that team has a ton of heart, that sucks to go out like that, but I'll take the W.  Stephenson is a man child and will be legit in a few years if he stays at Cincy
4-2 on Thursday (+11.2 Units) 


113-86 YTD (+80.4 Units) (56.7%)
15-12 on ML Parlays
15-8 2nd Half Plays
3-2 on pounder bets (10+ Unit bets)

So far I've been feeling it in these tourneys, but tomorrow is a new day with new challenges
