that people that blindly tail are total jackasses and that betting on a short day like this just to bet in college bball is a way to lose money; I will give you a REALLY BIG TIP that for whatever reason people can't figure out; DONT EVER PLAY A ROAD Fav. EVER; I will bet my life that you will lose 3 times more than you will win. Also just to go to College bball scores and any home team that any home team that is getting 5 or more points and the public is only on that team around 35%; that that is the team to play even away dogs that are favored by a 5 or more and the public is all over the home team; bet the other way, the only game that didnt go my way last night was SD; look at Oregon winning SU; UC RIverside winning by 9; Marymount almost winning the game giving 10  the percentages will only get more skewed as college football is over and now people pay more attention to college but games are easier to gauge as Non conference is over and conference play is in. You obvously don't cap games yourself so this is some valuable knowledge that if you listen to you won't make mistakes that professional cappers do all the time. If you are going to look to play a favorite dont play an away favorite; HOME COURT RULES SUPREME in college bball

Coach G! Fairfield did score higher than any, then Valpo and Iona. I bet Valp, and Fairfield. And looks like fairfield will be the fitty dolla play Ill play in experiment!  but lotta time left. I want to make sure I know a clear consensus and Iona is getting a lot of come back votes! BOL and thanks guys! I would like to be 2-0 with this after tonight. Im thinking out of seven days these picks should be well over 60%...IMO?

He had a tough day but is due to rebound might stay way from any game he picks today.

I already had a wager on Oregon + 6.5 locked in. I saw that pregame show for the new arena and that place was rocking so I sprinkled in some on the money line. Nice write up.

Fairfield beat Loyola at home by 10 earlier in the season so getting 5.5 at home does not look like enough.

Detroit kept Syracuse close does not seem like value on either side.

Valpo and Wright State looks very close.

Few garbage games...

Rider and Iona have a good win.  I think the -1 Iona road favorite is a little risky gonna look at the NBA tonight

I really hate away Favs so I would not put a play on Butler.  It may sound crazy here but I think it might worth taking a shot at Marist tonight.  They're not as bad at home WITHIN THEIR OWN CONFERENCE as when they're away.  Oh yeah, Siena sucks away from home.  Combining these 2 factors, I don't see why Siena is favored by 8.5 points here.  If Siena wins this game, it would be much closer to that but Marist might win outright here.

whatever carolina man is on I am on the other side; another quick tip just rattling off that the other team beat the other team at home by 10 means NOTHING; did you watch the game; did you look at the play by play; or box score; someone could have been out; head to head is important but doent equate out to total domination; its all about matchups

YO Handicapper my friend.......back down Kool! That was about an irritating know it all rant you just went on dude. WTH?  Your errelevent, bc you dont know what your talking about and you dont know what is going on here, or the reason! .#1 These guys are not tailing anyone, we mutually agreed on a play and it cashed, so we are gonna try it again. #2  they are not assholes, seems that pronoun is more fitting for you... Unbelievable?  I cant remember the last time I had a basher, know it all troll like you come in with this kinda babble. #3 You come in here trying to tell me how and when to gamble! Your a moron, man? I have probably been doing this longer than you have been alive! No need for you to talk about that you win 3x more than me,  this year has been a very profitable year, my best since 1991 buddy. You were probably still sucking your thumb? On all my posted plays I check the box and it goes on my blog, and do very very well! Its on my space :) Feel free to look! In the meantime plaese refrain from coming on my threads unless you have something positive or productive to say! I dont know you but Ive seen some of your antics my friend and I dont need any negative BS in any part of my life! I dont believe in it! .

I never fade ! Thats not logical to me? But it works for some guys! Its a strategy, just like the top guys in cbb contest. Some are picking all dogs, and are winning or second I believe. If it aint broke dont fix it I guess, but I like to put a little more thought than that in it ! I like sports, even though there are many pure strategy plays that can can be very profitable over the long run not deviating from it at all!  BOL Carolina

Funny you mention this because I just ran my database picks for the past 3 seasons to see if it was better at picking any certain scenario (i.e. certain spread, certain situation, etc.) and when it picked the road fav of between 1-9 pts the thing rolled out winners at about 64%.

That line moved from Siena -7 to Siena -8.5 beacause Siena is getting their 2nd leading scorer back for tonight's game (Clarence Jackson)

Okay I get what you saying but I would have looked for the number to be more around 7 if I was gonna play it.  If you really want a write on the bottom feeders of division one basketball then you need to do it yourself. Not gonna waste my time on garbage basketball.  But for yo lazy....here is a little info

Loyola was dominated in that game in the first half by like 18 made it tight late got it down to like 2 points late and Fairfield put them away.  Loyola had allot of turnovers and that cost them the game. J'hared Hall and Justin Drummond were out for Loyola don't know why or care why. ( They both give mid level minutes and score about 7 ppg)

It could noted that with the team putting forth good effort in the second half and cutting it to 1 point with the added depth and the 14 points missing from these two that Loyla cound be value at +5.5 tonight.

So take Loyola +5.5

Rider, Siena, and Butler look like the other best plays of the night.  Butler plays solid and consistent basketball.  So if you must bet these games they are probably the safe play.  Rider has beat a major and is a home dog. Siena as stated in a prior thread is getting a player back tonight that may spark the team. 

So play Rider +1

Butler -5

Siena -8.5

 

Hope that puts you on the other side tonight.....I am gonna pass putting any money on this crap basketball.
