Evening all.

Not much time for writeups at the moment, so just basically listing the plays tonight:

Purdue ML, -130 over Penn St......Purdue is a solid club, perhaps the third best in the league. Penn St always plays tough, but will be without leading scorer Geary Claxton for the rest of the year. Playing road chalk to win is always a dicey proposition, but the Boilers won on the road in Iowa seven days ago, so there's no reason to think they cant find a way to squeak out a win tonight.

NC St ML, -130 over Ga Tech.......It took all sorts of efforts for the Pack to get that win over the Canes Saturday night. I like this Wolfpack club and feel that miagical win will end up being the turning point for Lowe's club. The Jackets seem to have played more of the early important league games at home, and think they'll struggle on the road tonight. The good times will keep rolling in Raleigh with another big win.

Kent -2 over Akron......The Zips have played a pretty easy schedule, mostly at home. now, they hit the road in a huge rivalry game in front of acrowd that hates them. I'll take the home team and lay the short number.

Cincy +3 over Uconn.....Bearcats have already won home game against Syracuse, Villanova and Pitt, and they weren't lucky flukes, either as they controlled much of the action in those contests. No reason to think they cant take the Huskies either, so i will ride Cincy in this one. Hey, the Cats have covered 8 of their last 10, all as underdogs. Deonta Vaughn might be the Big Easts most improved player. Their improbable run this year in the Big East race will continue at least for another night.

TTech -1 over Missou......Knight's team looks focused and can play with anybody in the Big 12 in Lubbock. Should be a nice battle tonight, and what tips the scales for me is how Tech destroyed A/M on this floor last week, while the Tigers got rolled in their only league road game last week in Ames. Think the disparate home and road outcomes will continue in this one.

Baylor +9 over Tamu.....yep, the Aggies will be steaming and ready to show they're not paper contenders. But, they might be playing the most athletic team in the league this side of Lawrence tonight in the Baylor Bears. While, they have a front court edge, it will take all the Aggies have to keep up with Baylor's scoring. Besides, the Bears are 19-7-1 ATS in their last 27 conference games. Plus, the dog has covered 7 of 8 in this series and Baylor has won the money four straight times in College Station. This is a better Baylor squad than those predecessors, while the Aggies just are not as good as they were the last two or so seasons.

There it is....guess I had time for some write ups.....maybe risking some extra juice with the money lines on those first two, but I just have a hunch it may come in handy. We'll see.

Either way, it looks like a fun ngiht of hoops!!

Good luck!! :toast:
