29-12-1 ytd with South Alabama pending

Will update record later on tonight as I have one
play for the morning games.
I will be at work so I wanted to post now for anyone who is interested.

Syracuse +3

They need this game in the worst way as they each blew each other out of their own house this year. The difference in the game was Cincy's 3 point shooting as in their win they were 9/21 and in their lose they were 4/19 and from the floor they shot over 50% in the win and below 35% in their lose. Syracuse shot right around 35% both games from behind the arc and a shade above 40% from the floor. Terrence Roberts contained Eric Hicks in both games and I expect him to get Devendorf and McNamara some good open looks. McNamara does not want to go NITin his senior season after starting out with a national championship.

Good luck and comments always welcome

your right gjn 23 it is hard to back them, but a lot of people would never have backed USA last night either. Jim B. is not one of the best coaches to ever coach the game for nothing and the players will be up for this one. Cincy has a short bench also.

good luck to all

i dont quite get the correlation between a south alabama team that is/was playing some of its best basketball of the season and a syracuse team who has shown no signs of having interest in the postseason. kennedy has done a helluva lot better job than boeheim this year as well. one year doesn't make a coach by any means but i just don't see the usa/syr correlation at all. two completely different circumstances.

please don't compare wise and wiser to payne.
jayhawk thor and payne are two of the more underrated guys here. and they do it quietly

Not comparing, they both have different style or system. Both have more ncaa b-ball capping experiences than I do...and are good at it, my 2 cents.

BTW, we don't have to agree on this, but one thing for sure is we are here to look for WINNERS & :mj12: our books! GL & Peace.

good luck guys and appreciate it

31-12-1 ytd



gman2 i was not comparing the teams as a whole. I was saying a lot of people didnt like that south alabama team and i did because everyone knows about western kentucky.

I figured a lot of people would be on cincy as they thought cincy was on the rise after their big win and everyone wrote syracuse off.

ya get what i am sayin now?

should have another play in a bit

1-0 today with syracuse

Rutgers +2

I like the Rutgers to bust Seton Halls hopes and put seton hall back on the bubble and make them have a tough week as they wait the outcomes of so many bubble teams. Douby will have a huge game and dominate as he had 28 and 29 the last two this year. His shooting percentages were not that great but the were decent. In Rutgers lose against them they shot over 50 % and still lost by 6. I expect Rutgers to control the tempo and shock a lot of people.

Looking at a couple more games and might have more.

Good luck and comments always welcome
