Thursdays totals

[Valuist]

I'm only playing one right now: Over 134.5 in the Minnesota/Mich State game. There's not much margin for error here with the under. MSU is usually in the 120s but Minnesota is usually around the 160s. MSU will need to completely dominate the tempo to keep it under. MSU also a good FT shooting team so if Minny starts fouling late, that only helps

Duke/WF no play. It wasn't that long ago we would see a 156 or 158 for ACC games like this. Those days are gone.

USC/Stanford; close to an over play. I'm projecting 159.5 and at 156.5 it could be playable.

Syra/Seton Hall: Big East trend has been strong under play but doesn't appear to be any bargain here.

Mich st last 5 at home: 123,131,115,121,127
Minn last 5 rd: 114,164,140,137,158

minn at wi produced 137 see similar scenario here, the 135 total looks about right. Good luck.

I like the under in the Syracuse game!

I like the under in the Syracuse game!

Both teams have fresh legs, they have played a total of 2 games in about 15 combined days. If you look down they schedule both teams usually play lower scoring games when they are rested.

Rrc-

I think Wisky is definitely a slower tempo team than MSU. I also tend to go back a few more games (usually 10, not 5) and I don't differentiate between home and road. I do differentiate between conference and non-conference, which is more significant IMO.

Last 10 conf:

Minn 129,114,164,162,164,160,140,137,158,172
MSU: 121,124, 131, 110,128, 115,146,142, 121, 127

It could go under, but MSU will have to completely dominate the tempo.

Stewy-

You could be right about the Syra game. If I play it at all it would be under. It seems the Big East teams let the air out of the ball the last couple minutes.
