Fairfield-Manhattan

[Stag]

I have the privalege of sitting at press row tonight at this game. I'm covering (sportswriting) the game for the Norwalk Hour newspaper.

Hopefully, I will see/learn something in the pre-game that can be useful in handicapping. I'll be looking closely at the shootaround and chatting with some people close to the teams.
If I get a good feel, I wish I had internet access to post it here at the forum. Unforunately, my labtop is ancient! No internet access.....I can only file stories and send them to the newspaper.

Anyway, top plays are now 2-1. I should have taken Hofstra last night, especially since both Superbook and Box and One were on them. I just thought Him and Her would take are of business at home.

As for tonight...........I took the UNDER 144. Tough rims at Harbor Yard and a battle for first place should mean lower scoring.
I think the line on this game is where it should be.........maybe a slight lean to the Stags +1 at home.

Top Play: Manhattan-Fairfield.........UNDER 144

Just posted on this game myself, I reversed direction with a slight lean to Manhattan...but I wouldn't be surprised to see it come down to the last shot.

I think the Jaspers will pressure Fairfield's big men. The under is a good call here...only danger is OT.

Have a great time, should be a real battle.

stag,please report on the game tonite when you get home.
I like your under play.I agree.You have 2 of the best defensive teams playing.Stags frontline alters shot all day.Holmes with the Jaspers speed pressures and contests shots.
But lyr in the quarters the score was 155 with a 81-74.
Went to a wedding in Norwalk this summer.My best friend from North texas got married on the "sound".

Superbook,I'm glad your on the jaspers too. GL
