sunday's plays go 2-2, overall record now 43-34-2. sunday's dogs 2-0, favorites 0-2; hmmmm, what can we learn from this? i'm convinced the hand of jimmy v reached down to guide melvin's buzzer beater. gladly paid the money for the thrill. on the other hand, tubb's tcu pitiful in scoring 24 first half points against mean green, glad they lost outright. for today:
notre dame +2: alabama unproven in my mind, only quality win @ memphis back in november. tide easily handled @ ucla, iowa and mizzou. notre dame the better team i believe, certainly the better shooting team across the board. irish should be small favorite on neutral court imo.
miami +2 may want to wait on this one as line appears to be going up. my 11-0 canes just don't seem to be getting any respect from the linesmakers despite being 11-0 s/u and 6-1 ats, beating uab, clemson, indiana, uncc among others. lsu schedule weak, tigers only 1-3 ats with no road covers and lost to new orleans last week on this same court.
washington +3: guess i'm prejudiced against the university of spoiled children as i seem to always pick against them but they just seem to be perrenial underachievers. plenty of motivation for huskies who have lost last five in this series including 29 point blowout back in march. huskies also have dropped last two home games to gonzo and ucla, so this game a must. was shoots 43% from the arc and 72% from the line, both superior to trojans. trojans usually lucky to shoot 60% from the free throw line and this could be the difference in this game. bender has his boys ready.
nevada +1-: a little risky here as reno pulls into san jose on the way to hawaii but just feel the wolf pack (note two word not one) the better team. san jose has alreaby lost at home to naia vanguard and on a neutral court to div ii neb-omaha. my numbers have nevada seven better.
manhattan -4: don't really understand this line as i figure manhattan wins by dd's. pitino/gillen disciple bobby gonzalez has his boys playing some solid ball - if they can handle the johnnies by 17 in the garden i think they can handle fordham.
good luck to all.
