Decided to try something new and post only one play that I feel has the most value on the entire card for a given day. The reason for this is that lately I have posted several games only to come out 50% overall at the very best! Gonna try and play more quality games than quantity. I will try this out for a while and see how it works and maintain a record. No, I do not guarantee 70%+ results, but I do promise valid reasons for my pick! Hope that's enough ;)

So lets begin with:

Wichita St. PK over Creighton:

Main reason for this play is that Wichita State has been solid at home while Creighton has struggled on the road. I feel that Creighton has looked better than they really are with their posted record because most of their games have been at home. Creighton has posted a 10-5 record but only 1-4 both ATS and straight up on the road. Yes, their competition on the road has been difficult with games at TCU, BYU, Western Kentucky, and Northern Iowa, but IMO Wichita State plays just as tough at home as these four teams.

Wichita State has gone 5-1 at home and 4-2 ATS. Most impressive win at home IMO was against Southern Illinois by 9. This game also has huge implications in the Missouri Valley conference race where Creighton is tied with Southern Illinois at the top while Wichita State is a game behind. Huge motivational factors for both teams, but especially Wichita State IMO as they have to take down the top teams in the conference at home in order to have a chance at winning it all. . . especially with road games in the future against Southern Illinois and Creighton.

Good luck to everyone tonight!

FWIW I'll add sides that I have an opinion on:


Ohio laying 11.5 over Eastern Michigan. . . Eastern is a VERY bad team but still am not 100% comfortable with laying double digits on the road.

Virginia laying 4 over GT. . . Cavs are clearly the better team, but GT has owned this team in the past.

Pitt laying 3 over Cuse. . . Pitt's D should be the difference in this one. . .

Final opinions:

Manhattan laying 7 over Marist
Kent laying 14 over Buffalo

Sounds crazy right? These are revenge games and the lines are set to take the dogs. . . don't fall for it!!! :nono:
