correct. it's because of the tournaments and non conference games. you're right and i probably shouldn't be betting nearly as many games as i am. lol. you have almost nothing to go by because a lot of these stats are inflated/deflated to look into from teams playing previous games.not only that, there's no history with these teams playng each other for the most part

some early degen action: tulane +2.5 FH

i highly doubt georgia st will have another performance like they did against georgia. it's education day and tulane is packing the school with all the local kids, so i'm hoping they can bring some noise for what everyone thinks will be an empty gym. off two back to back losses, i expect tulane returning home to be hungry for a win here. they definitely have a big height advantage and should be able to keep georgia st outside of the paint forcing them to take long shots.

Yeah, im not looking to get too involved at the moment with kids ball until they grow up a bit more in conference play...besides the occasional halftime wager im content sitting on the sidelines for now and looking for team trends, who to back and who to fade...right now gotta say Nevada has exceeded my expectations, and Cincy looks to be again an excellent defensive team which may yield many 1st half unders

this is very true. big 10 gonna be tough this year. really like how nebraska has looked. ohio st, too, (i'll most likely be fading them tonight).maybe the best conference in the league, but i won't shoot my load just yet. big 12 looks like a mess so far from what they used to be. still too early to tell anything concrete

tech will surprise a bunch of teams this year.  picked to finish 7th in the conference is a joke.  a dog the other day to Nebraska was just laughable.   Beard is the real deal Holyfield.

ODB,nice call on Tulane second half,I went with over instead which looked bad to start,but was looking in the mains and looked like most were on under and I missed start,but have to say this Geo.St team is looking good,like your OD play and already took Miami O.,should be a close game.
GL today P.Box guys.

ODB,How you feel about Bradly-3.5 and SD+7.5,those 2 plus Miami and tail on your OD play are my early games,also looking to take Virg.under FH but have not looked at those lines yet,might have to just put in the low # without looking,lol.
And looking at Brown getting 8.5,any thoughts on these?

literally just placed my bet for IUPUI +4 and was about to post it. watch out for all these short road favorites of 3-4 points today. they're heavy public sides and look dangerous. IUPUI coming with vengenance. not a bad team this year. well coached, too. game will be very close. was taking a look at san diego. still on the fence.

i think brown is a good bet, jegs. looks like the market agrees, too

'cuse +5. ohio st is tough but this team is young and i'm not sure they will know what to do when the zone hits them. frank howard is back now and should be able to play up to his potential. i'm afraid chukwu will be announced available to play and that'll bring the line down so i'm gonna grab this now. 

got a couple more but let's see how these turn out first. ugly lookin' card today

6-1 FIU visits 2-6 Gulf Coast and the 2-6 team is favored. FIU plays at the fastest pace in the country and have had a ball beating the little sisters of the poor so far. You should know what to do.

FGCU -2

looking b/e so far hitting ODU on the big play. man, look at the stats for rider. their shooting %'s beat WV's. they had some bogus technical's and got outrebounded which lost them the game. they played better in almost every way, though

florida st -4
