Determined to have a big day!
Penn State +13 (-120) for 4* - Nittany Lions have really improved as the season progresses which typically happens with young teams. Penn State has won 4 of their last 6 (5-1 ATS) and I think they give the heavily favored Buckeyes a scare today. Geary Claxton and Parker keep PSU within shouting distance. Buckeyes win by 6 to 7 points.
Miami +14 (-120) for 4* - Duke isn't playing well and I don't see why they will have a breakout game today. The Blue Devils will need a huge game from their key players to cover this spread IMO. Hurricanes only blowout loss of late was @ Duke and I expect a maximum effort to keep this game close. I also believe an ailing Dockery will have his hands full with Diaz, Harris, and Hite. Guards typically are the difference in late season games and Miami has 3 solid guards. Duke wins by 7 to 9 points.
Texas Tech +15 for 4* - Red Raiders have been beaten worse than a redheaded step child by the Longhorns the past 2 meetings. So the logical choice is Texas in another rout which could happen. However, Texas Tech looked very good yesterday and this is too many points too pass up against a very inconsistent Texas club. Enough points also to keep the backdoor open if the Horns open up a big lead. I think Jarius Jackson can have a good game and I'm hoping Texas will once again play to the level of their competition as they have in losses @ OK State & A&M in recent weeks.
Going to add more plays as the day progresses. Comments are always welcome good or bad...
