Wichita Shockers -2 over UConn **
Wichita has played and beaten OU.VCU and Memphis..they are better on offense and lite yrs better on defense.. Huskies haven't seen this type of defense yet..
Mich -3 over Purdue **
Memphis 4 over USF ****
USF lost to ECU by a couple.. Offense is bad and defense will have trouble the Tigers Achiuwa...even though they have lost 2 in a row and best player is going pro...they still will win and cover big
Utah +10 over Colorado ***
Buffs just lost to Ore st by 8..Utah just lost to the other Oregon by 5..but Utah has 2 fds in Gach and Allen..try stopping both of them...and jones at the pt...way to may pts for Colorado to give up..got the line last night and jumped on it..think today it might change
Zona -4.5 over Ore St **
MAAC
Iona -8,5 over Niagara *****
Iona is 1-2 in the MAAC...they are the New England Pats of the MAAC...lost 5 in a row until they beat Rider the other nite by 3...no way they could go 0-3.. so today will be 2-2..Crawford the lefty is still one of the top players in the conf..can drive and shoot,.. Gist is starting to hit his 3's and Agee inside should have a field day in the paint today vs a front line of Niagara that is non existent ....Purple are bad... can't score,can't play defense can't rebound .. that 3 can'ts ..they did play Manhattan close the other day but Man played a soft 2-3 zone that gave Purple some open looks..Iona isn't back yet but after knocking off Rider and a chance to be 2-2 and one game out of the conf lead there somewhat back...Niagara has no post defense and Agee at 6'9 can rebound and score inside.. Gist the pt gd needs to step up and Crawford should be able to drive and shoot all day...
St Pete -2.5 over Cansisus **
Griifs are that bad..they have all 3 "can'ts.. Peter really isn't much better and could be still celebrating their Iona upset but they are 2-1 in conf..at home,better defense . Griffs are 0-4 in conf
Quinn -2.5 over Monmouth ***
Quinn has won 6 of last 7.. Kelley is just doing everything right..could be POY of conf..Rigoni can score and hit 3's and Marfo who is among the leaders in rebounding in the country.. A vacuum cleaner on both ends...love Baker as a coach and has his kids playing a little like his Nova's kids..
Siena +1 over Manhattan *
Saints are 0-6 away.. MC playing a soft 2-3 zone the other nite...Saints have the pre-season POY in Pickett.. if MC plays defense like they did the other nite Saints win big..
Rider -8 over Marist ***
Rider beat them by 10 a few weeks back at home.. Foxes finally won a game vs fairfief after losing 11 in a row...Rider has lost 4 of last 5..Foxes have one of the worst offense's avg in the 300's in about 2 or 3 categories. Rider has so much more talent that not 1 Fox could start for Rider..yet Rider only won by 10 a few weeks back As bad as Marist is still think Jordan,Scott ,Marshall and co. can win by double digits in Poughkeepsie ..Foxes have a great coach in Dunne and riders Baggett is lost in space..hate taking Baggett over Dunn but Dunn can't play..
UTSA won by 10 and covered ..a little to close but a win is a win...went to the Appa St-Texas game..Appa has one player that an score..Tx st smothered him and although he scored no one else did...and Pearson was left alone to drive and shoot uncontested jumpers..don't these coaches watch game films when they scout..if anyone of these Sun Belt coaches watched Troy play Pearson they would follow...not sure who Appa plays next but they are not a very good team or well coached..
