    Tuesday 11/13

    YTD: 2-1 Coming back with another total, hopefully this one does better than last nights. Siena/FDU Under 160.5 Key match-up is Ubiles vs Hazard, a FDU f who can shoot the three. I think Ubiles will keep a hand in his face and the smaller guard-oriented O for FDU won't have as much luck...

    Monday 11/12

    YTD: 2-0 Columbia/Delaware State Over 118 I have no confidence in Columbia winning this game let alone their ability to play D. Columbia has no answer for Roy Bright who should put up at least 30 by himself. Delaware State tends to play "milk the clock" O but I think there will be enough...

    Saturday 11/10

    YTD: 1-0 Rider +6 Thompson too much for smaller Murray State. Total of 139 tells me that Vegas thinks Rider will be able to set the pace. MSU won in NJ last year; I think the Broncs may return the favor this year in KY... good luck. - Jon

    Friday 11/9

    0-0 JMU +4 Siena should be good this year but it will take them awhile to adjust to the graduation loss of Michael Haddix. JMU should be much improved with transfer pg Jalloh who led St. Joe's in scoring and rebounding 2 years ago. Siena won by ten last year on their home court; I think JMU...

    Siena @ Iona injuries

    Iona will be without forwards Anthony Bruin and Alejo Rodriguez when it plays Siena on Thursday at Times Union Center. Bruin, a 6-foot-7 senior from Colonie High, sprained his ankle Monday during a loss to Canisius. He will miss three to six weeks, Iona coach Jeff Ruland said Wednesday. Bruin...

    Sunday NCAA Hoops: Niagara @ Fairfield

    YTD: 18-10 Everytime I get to 67% I get knocked back. Guess Iona is going to have to wait for StP to cut down the nets... PICK: Niagara/Fairfield Over 140 These two teams both come in to this game on winning streaks, Niagara off a big win Friday night at Marist. These two have one thing in...

    NCAA Saturday Hoops: Loyola MD @ Iona

    YTD: 18-9 PICK: Iona +3 This is it guys, this is the day that Iona gets their first win. In their match-up last month at Loyola MD, Iona outrebounded the hounds 47-41 but hit only 26 of 72 from the field which resulted in their 66-75 loss. Loyola MD should be favored by six so why is the...

    NCAA Wednesday Hoops: Temple @ Penn

    YTD: 17-9 Should have posted Iona last nite but got home too late. Sooner or later they are going to win one!! PICK: Temple +6 These Big Five games are typically very close; the L3 between these two were decided by 4 or less. This game is the homecoming of Fran Dunphy, the new Temple coach...

    Sunday NCAA Hoops: Siena @ Manhattan

    YTD: 16-9 Sooner or later, Iona is going to win one of those games SU as the big dog. PICK: Siena +2 Manhattan looks to be coming in as the hot team, going 5-0 in their L5 to MAAC opponents but 4 of those 5 wins were against MAAC teams in the bottom half of the league. Siena did poorly in...

    Saturday NCAA Hoops: Iona @ Niagara

    YTD: 15-9 Lost a couple of tough ones lately, time to get back on the right track. PICK: Iona +14 Call me crazy backing an 0-17 team, but Iona is coming off tough OT losses and it's time they get their first win. Ruland may have finally found the right line-up. Niagara plays terrible D and I...

    NCAA Saturday Hoops: Princeton @ Cornell

    YTD: 15-8 PICK: Princeton -1.5 Tough loss by the hook last night as Harvard and Cusworth performed as expected. Princeton lost to a Columbia team that couldn't miss a shot: Columbia hit 80% from the field in the 1H and 67% for the game. Princeton played pretty well, shooting in the mid-40s...

    NCAA Friday Hoops: Dartmouth @ Harvard

    YTD: 15-7 PICK: Harvard -6.5 Harvard has lost their L4 and Dartmouth has won 6 of their L7 yet Harvard is favored by 7?? Guess Vegas agrees that the Crimson is the play here. Revenge: Dartmouth beat Harvard in OT last Friday in NH. Harvard was up by 12 at the end of the first half but got...

    Thursday NCAA Hoops: Canisius @ Siena

    YTD: 14-7 PICK: Siena -11.5 If Siena hadn't lost to Loyola MD in OT earlier this week, I wouldn't touch this game, with Siena looking ahead to Marist next Monday. And the fact that this game is the second of two games between these two in 8 days with Siena winning the first match-up on the...

    NCAA Sunday Hoops: Buffalo @ Bowling Green

    YTD: 13-7 Disappointing loss last time out with Niagara who seemed to give up in the 2H. PICK: Buffalo +3.5 69% of public on BG but line has moved from -4 to -3.5 I have it on good authority that Idbihi will play for UB. Two players out for BG. Small home crowd for BG as school is still on...

    Friday NCAA Hoops: Siena @ Niagara

    YTD: 13-6 PICK: Niagara -4.5 A lot has changed since Siena beat Niagara 81-69 in Albany 29 days ago. Leading scorer Charron Fisher is back for the Purple Eagles and the team as a whole is playing much better, turning a 1-6 record around to 7-7. I like Siena a lot; at 6'6", 250, Haddix plays...

    Canisius leading scorer out tonite

    Chuck Harris, Canisius' leading scorer, will be out of tonite's game with a knee injury. Might explain the big line move in favor of Siena. - Jon

    Wednesday NCAA Hoops: St Peter's @ Niagara

    YTD: 12-6 PICK: Niagara -8 Since starting the season at 1-6, Niagara has won 5 of their L6. The primary reason is that they have gotten all of their players back from suspension including Charron Fisher who is averaging 20ppg in his L5. 6'10" center Benson Egemonye, a transfer from...

    Saturday NCAA Hoops: Princeton @ Iona

    YTD: 11-6 PICK: TOTAL OVER 101 This game opened at Princeton -6 and with 65% of the public on the Tigers it has moved down to -4. Looks like the sharps think that Princeton is going to hand the Gaels a late Christmas gift: their first win. St Johns transfer Dexter Gray has played well in the...

    Thursday NCAA Hoops: TSU @ Siena

    YTD: 11-5 PICK: Tennessee State +9 I like Siena to bounce back after the loss to Buffalo but I think nine points is too many to ask the Saints to cover. Tennessee State is big and should hold a strong edge on the boards; Siena's weakness this season to date has been rebounding. I think the...

    Saturday NCAA Hoops: Siena @ Buffalo

    YTD: 10-5 PICK: BUFFALO -2.5 Siena tries to extend their 4-game win streak but they should start a little slow as they haven't played in 2 weeks. Buffalo is better than their 7-5 record indicates: they nearly upset Pitt a couple of weeks ago, leading with possession with less than a minute...
