Sun Conference... UAB -North Texas

[Box and one]

Sun conf
Troy -1 over Coastal **
Both teams have a big man Mostafa vs Odigie ,both teams play solid defense think Coastal has over all the better team after Troy lost to UTA the other day. But since I watched Troy vs Tex St last week and interchangeable they play 4 or 5 gds that are lightning fast Deen needs to understand he cannot take 3's from 3 feet beyond the NBA line . But speed and quickness goes to Troy. Mostafa needs to be slowed down and think Odigie although really a forward needs to play some post defense.

UL Laf -5 over Ark St ** Both teams can't play defense and can't shoot Ft;s . Brown is a great addition to the cajuns and with his other 6'11 partner Akuba think they can dominate inside .

UL Monroe -5 over ArK st **
UL has Ozier one of the best gds in the conf. Nika M can rebound and score at home where Ark can't win on the road.

SMU +2.5 over Cincinnatti **
Mustangs haven't beaten the Cats in years. But Smoo has Davis and Cinciny has some kinks in their Armour .

UAB + 2 over North Texas ****
best play.. NT plays outstanding defense 2nd best in Conf USA. But tonight NT plays against the best defensive team that is relentless and pressures full court. Two solid defensive teams, But UAB has the better offense. With a solid pt gd in Jackson and 6'7 fd Buffin who is on fire. Last yr they ranked 22nd on defense and lost only 1 players.. NT is on a roll winning 6 in a row but NT graduated their top pt gd and Perry a juco has done a good job replacing Hamel but tonight he will be pressured all 94 -96 feet NT doesn't have the offense it had and has won because of their defense. Tonight they meet a beter defensive team. UAB is the best team in conf USA and shouldn't be an underdog .

With football over, I finally started watching this forum.
Tonight looks like you have been having fun, Box.
I played a few games a couple weeks ago but the virus thing is screwing up teams
With players down at the last minute you get ambushed.
Players down on and off and teams can't have very good timing, tempo and rhythm.
It just felt like a dart game to me.
Best of luck the rest of the season :0074

thanks smax the virus has really put a damper on handicapping . In football when Sincere McCormick didn't play for UTSA in the bowl game and a week later Andre for North Texas I got cooked. Then last week at the Tex St game I didn't realize Harrell Tx St best player and point gd didn't warm up before the game. Maybe the game was 2 minutes long when I realized he wasn't even on the bench. I had Troy so for the 1st time I had the advantage with covid . I made about 4 live wagering plays for Troy and won them all Trying to recoup some of my lost ***'s in those 2 football games.
Then last night I have UAB and find it real strange they are the underdog. The game is on WWCBS TV and I see NT's best player Perry is not starting. Waited a few minutes to make another live wager on UAB and then Perry comes off the North Texas bench . The tv announcers explain Grant uses him as a 6th man even though he gets more minutes then anybody . Perry comes in and hits 2 three's and see's he is NT's best player. BUT UAB was better then North Texas and one of my best friend is at the game texting me and telling me there is no home crowd in Denton. Also calling me a traitor and how can you play against our alma mater. He was a teacher and coach in Aledo outside of Fort Worth .. He got his doctorate in Kines-logy and still teaches one or two classes at North Texas. Saw him few weeks ago at the North Texas football game.
Really did an outstanding job taking Smoo over Cincinnati. Bearkats have beaten them 12 or 13 straight times. But I actually thought the game was at SMU. Thats really doing your homework I would never have taken them if I knew SMU was on the road. smax could to hear from you
