Duke -22 over Appa St **
Dukies front line of fds and posts Banchero,Williams are to much for smaller Appa defenders. Then you have Moore and King at 6'5 and 6'4 Duke shoots fg% 48.. Thats almost 50%. Appa will slow it down tonight and try to play half court but Duke has to much depth and Appa kids will be under the Cameron crazies . Appa has trouble scoring avgs only 64 pts a game. But I think the control of the paint will be Appa's problem Watched Appa the past few years when they played Tex St. Delph and Forrest are solid . Well coached and think they will try to take some air out of the ball tonight. I don't have all my notes on the score cards since last year Tex St didn't print them out before the games. , But Appa sts does have the ugliest warm ups ever. Last yr they won the Sun Belt tourney and went dancing in the NCAA's I like Appa in the sun Belt but don't like them tonite in Cameron I think this is the Sun belt conf champions again ..Appa lost to Iona ,Charlotte and Furman .

ORU -7 over UTA ***
Abmas is the best player in the country that no one knows except teams in the Summit conf . He did lead the nation in scoring avg 24 pts a game and carried his team to the big Dance only to lose by 2 to Arkansas . UTA has Azore who can score but think Abmas and co win and cover tonight.

Stanford -16 over Dartmouth ****
Dartmouth avg SAT scores are a little higher then Stanfords but not sure if that will help them tonite. . But Cards have Ingram at 6'8 who singled handled Oregon the other nite. Plus Delaire and Jomes there top scorers are all 6'7 ,6'8 and 6'9 . Stanford has trouble scoring esp vs baylor but after seeing what baylor did to Nova maybe you can throw that game out. Greens top 4 or 5 scorers are all 6'5 and below. And Dartmouth is a bad rebounding team allowing opposing teams off rebounds . Dartmouth has lost to BU,Quinn,Fl Gulf,and BC by 3.3,10,18 and 16. Dart did beat G-town as there one legit win. Think with the win the other nite over Oregon it has awakened Stanford somewhat.

Rice -14.5 over Incarnate Word ***
If IW qb Ward plays basketball this bet is off. Rice covers at home regardless who they play. Incarnate has lost 6 or 7 in a row but they did beat Lady of the Lakes . So if you beat Lady of the Lakes you lose your next game . Lamar last nite was an example . Their last win was lady of the lakes and Tex St blew them out last night. I'm not even sure where Lady of the lakes is . Not sure if Ken Pom has that stat yet. You are 12-0 ats by taking the last team to beat the" Lady" just kidding
With my wife out in Florida am going to a D-2 game here in Austin tonight where I know the coach who recruited some of my players when he coached juco in upstate NY I got a email from him last night inviting me to the game. His team last year was 30-2 and they went to the nationals . The campus is about 5 miles from my house here ..

Babies are in the NICU but Becca is coming home tomorrow morning, Her 2 sisters are surprising her tomorrow morning. My wife asked me if I'm Ok " I'm fine hon take care of your daughter and 2 new grandkids . Its boring here without you .. thanks ez and the rest of you guys for the kind words

I think you mean Keels at 6?4?. Don?t sleep on AJ Griffith whose dad is NBA coach. Was injured for senior year of high school but is projected as first round pick. As their 8th man he led Duke in scoring in last game.
