Units?

Just an appreciation thread. 

I have been refreshing all day!

Can we get a play ?

@Rojero

 Stop messing with me! I thought we had a KC play

Kent State hasn’t been practicing. The coach ended their season when they lost in the MAC. They did not expect to get invited to the NIT. 

hopefully shaking off the rust 

@osubucks1

 Hope you lost with Tennessee 

Great call again! 

@osubucks1

 Damn dude! You got an absolute hard on for me! You must be losing your picks or just a terrible person in general. 

correction the last matchup not the first. 

and I won by GCU pick despite screwing up my write up. I could easily just take the easy way out and post only my pick. But I try to provide some insight. 

At the end of the day you’re still a loser and I’ll just keep winning to myself. 

It was nice knowing you! Good news, covers allow you to come back as a new you. WooCubs

 Nice GCU pick! 

Good luck 

I like VCU here!

George Mason has been a nice surprise this season, sitting at 25-7, Unfortunately for GMU, their record isn’t enough to get them a spot in the tournament. They need a win today, or they’re likely looking at the NIT or CBI.

The problem? This matchup is terrible for them. VCU is by far the best team in the A-10 and has been on an absolute tear, going 11-1 since the start of February. They’re not here to mess around—they want that NCAA bid locked in. Just last month, they beat George Mason by 16, and there’s no reason to think this won’t be a repeat performance.

George Mason has turned it on in the A-10 Tournament, going 2-0 SU and ATS after snapping an ugly 0-6 ATS skid to end the regular season. The Patriots just took down St. Joe’s 74-64 as 1.5-point dogs, and both of their tournament games have flown over the total.

VCU, on the other hand, has been the team to beat. The Rams have won 11 of their last 12 games and have been printing money for bettors, going 8-2-2 ATS in that stretch and 12-3-2 ATS in their last 17. They handled Loyola Chicago 62-55 but failed to cover as 9.5-point favorites. The Under has hit in 5 of their last 8 games.

GMU has had a nice run, but VCU is simply on another level.

Sure, VCU had to grind a little against Loyola Chicago yesterday, but they pulled away late. Expect them to come out aggressive, take control early, and win this one by double digits.

VCU covers

Florida minus the spread is the right play—no hesitation. Let’s break it down.

Tennessee looked great yesterday, knocking off one of the best teams in the country, but let’s not overreact. The Vols got to the free throw line 27 times and hit 25 of them—that’s not sustainable, especially against a Florida team that only commits 16.9 fouls per game (compared to Auburn’s 18.5). The matchup isn’t in Tennessee’s favor this time.

Florida, on the other hand, just dropped 104 points on Alabama, completely dominating the second half. Yes, Grant Nelson was out, but that doesn’t take away from how good the Gators looked. That was a statement game. They looked like the best team in the country..

Now, I know the first matchup between these two was ugly. Tennessee won 64-44, but that was at Tennessee, and Florida had an abysmal shooting night—just 24% from the field. That’s not happening again. Florida is far better inside and out than they showed in that game, and with the way they’re playing right now, I trust them to get the job done.

Florida covers.

That over loss is brutal especially with MOH making all those threes in the FH. They had so much momentum.

 Good luck!

@osubucks1

 My bet! You asked if I really made the bet. 

I took ownership in the bad first paragraph.

I took GCU -4.5 for $2,500. 

you’re really acting like a Xichigan fan right now. Get lost!

@osubucks1

 Can you post screenshots? 

I did place $2,500 -4.5

@osubucks1

 Agreed 

Had to look at my bet to confirm I actually even took the right team.
