Hey all!
Year to date 23 wins 31 losses... still climbling
over .500 goal for the week 15-9 ends tomorrow.

(remember how bad I started... ugh)



Today...

Drex -8.... Just a different beast at home. Cant not take them when they are the better team and the number is single digits!! Bruiser not as bad as I thought.

Providence -3... Northeastern a very good team, Prov a very hungry team, at home.

Iowa -12.5... number looks funny, its not. Horner should be back. Iowa stepping things up defensively. Will be the best D Drake has faced all year (sorry BC Iowa a better D than you). Alford ready for the press.

Colorado -8. TCU always pretty good at home. Colo is on a different lvl this year, should roll even on the road. Bad match ups for TCU.

Memphis -18... They name the score.

Houston +4... I am NOT a Lon Kruger fan. I will take Penders over him any day of the week. Look for a strong bounce back game from the Cougs.



Good luck guys!!!

The Coogs dont bounce back.
The live b the 3 and die by the 3.
All Coog games depend on if Oliver Lafyette and Lanny Smith are hitting. Thorpe is a nice athletic player as well.
Good Luck with the play,but playing in Vegas one phrase comes to my mind when betting U of H.
"Crap Shoot"
If UNLV plays like they did against TT then Penders and Co. have no chance. Penders teams do not defend whatsoever.

thanks

thanks

Well I read that he "should" play. If he isnt than this line is even MORE strange. So it is play for me no matter what. Thanks for the feedback G

Yeah I hear ya. I am also NOT a big Penders fan. I actually dont think he is that great of a coach. But I do think he is better than Kruger. I can tell you dont like him so much :mj07: !!!

Thanks for the input and I did consider all those angles, defense as well. UNLV doesnt play much D either. UNLV has allowed 46% shooting on the year vs opponents... Heck Ttech shot 54%!!

Houston allowing 41% shooting. But at LSU they allowed 58% !!! yikes...

So I see your point, and sure UNLV might cover, heck they might blow them out. I am taking a shot with Houston.

Thank you a ton for the feedback, I really appreciate it!!! Take care and good luck today!

I miss Penders at Texas honestly. I live in Houston so I get my fill of him.
Penders put Texas on the map before Barnes came along. He had them 1 Travis Mays 3 vs. Ark away from the Final Four in 89.

Everytime I think U of H will TCB, they don't. When I doubt them they win.
Tonite I am doubting them so you are on the right side.
Good Luck. It is a no play for me.
I have too much tied up in the So Miss(fb) and Louisville(bb).
I think both roll tonite.
