I dug really deep for these...

[double down]

6-3 last night...not bad considering Nevada really stuck it to me.

Penn +18 Ill is one the elite in the country..they have every intention of win the shootout...but, they are not thinking about Penn...well, they should..Penn is a very discplined and suprisingly athletic team with very good shooters (Toole)..I think they have the size underneath to play competetively with Illini.

Gonzaga -4 Same kind of Gonzaga team minus Calvarly..watched them vs Illinois...they looked very good until the fuel ran out in Champaign. St. Johns without Omar Cook will have a hell of a time containing Dickau...and when St. Johns gets down they become selfish....I like this alot

S. Ill + 4 Iowa State will struggle this year...Marcus Belcher and Kent Williams are very good guard combo..I fully expect Iowa State to wilt under the pressure of these two...Also Salukis get the services of VT transfer Rolan Roberts..ver strong presence underneat..I like this alot too

E. ILL +9 Not my strongest play of the day...because I was disappointed in Eastern's performance against Ill last week..I fully expected a cover that night...well, Eastern has, in my opinion, the most explosive forward in country in Hank Domercant...this guy will be in the NBA..he can inside and out..very versatile.
I watched GT vs Penn and they suck...very very green and looked out of sync...small play on E. Illinois

Good Luck

Double Down---nice write up ...appreciate your thoughts..i'm also looking at St Louis..Hartford's been down for years..surely will stuggle athletically in this match-up??...any thoughts???

 

[loophole]

since i like penn and st lou was brought up above, i'll stick these two in here if you don't mind dd. was really impressed with the way quakers controlled tech and tempo start to finish. hartford is just plain terrible.

penn +18 (hold for awhile - i bet it goes up.

st louis -17

good luck today - let's get fat in more ways than one. happy turkey day.

Crib...I thought and researched St. Louis/Hartford....If you put a gun to my head I would play St. Louis....Hartford has a couple new faces and 2nd year head coach Larry Harrison is a great recruiter (he worked for Bobby Huggins at Cincy)..so I don't know who he brought in to play...PLUS PLUS PLUS...since he was at Cincy..he knows St. Lou

Loop...mi casa su casa

is!!!

just saw where st louis is probably going to shake up the starting lineup tonight because of lackluster play and rebounding in the siu game. this most likely accounts for the line move. don't really like change right out of the gate so i'm taking this play down. will add these:

oregon state +8-: antihorns

gonzaga -4: key losses, wrong coast for the redmen.

good luck tonight.

 

[double down]

I played St. Louis -17....Shake up will probably do some good....The gun is at head..what can I say?????

 

[double down]

By the way....the E. ILL and S. Ill picks were really toooooo easy.....somebody gotta get on the Gonzaga with me

just kidding...sometimes you win.....

 

[bohawk]

Double D, I climbed on Zaga with a teaser with the Tex-Men.Got Zaga win by 12& Tex by 15.Also played both st. GL : bohawk

[double down]
