Wednesday CBB

30-24-2

Oregon -6 (Ducks have put together a great season so far.  Despite the schedule disparity between these 2 teams, Oregon is still shooting and defending much better than the Trojans.)

No Colorado -4.5 (Is NoCo still under the radar or am I missing something?  I could see a more competitive game if this was in Minnesota, but it's in Colorado where St. Thomas is not as sneaky good.)

Lehigh +2 (Lehigh has played a tougher schedule than Monmouth and their metrics are still better.  Getting points at home is a plus.  Also expect a letdown after Monmouth's upset at Seton Hall.)

Harvard -3 (Everything here screams Holy Cross, yet Harvard is getting the points on the road.  Smelly line makes me go with the road favorite.)

 Duquesne -4.5 (Metrics are shaky - effective FG% leans to St. Pete - but the Dukes look like they are starting to grasp what Dru Joyce is getting them to run which should help offfset early slow start - I hope)

 Adding Bradley -4 (Bradley has had success against a slightly tougher schedule than S Illinois.  Couple that with a sufficiently better shooting percentage >10% and it should be a nice MVC opener for the Braves.)

With you on N. Colo.  USC makes me nervous at home.

@River_fish

 I'm worried about an Oregon letdown after last week, but they have a veteran coach who I am expecting to not let that happen.  But, yeah, USC can either show up and win or be USC and lose by 20.
