Nice job yesterday.
Looking at a few for today but gotta ask you about this one...does Eastern Michigan have any shot at all of stopping Dionte Christmas and losing to Temple by less than 8? My gut says hell no but the line seems quite low...maybe Temple isnt getting respect anymore with their .500 record, even though they've played stiff competition.
They other one I got on was Michigan -6 before it moved...Indiana is god awful but they do have homecourt going for them, who knows what thats worth though since they let Lipscomb come in their place and beat em...:shrug:
Air, I was a big fan of the Eagles and picked them to win the MAC west before the season started. Then the unthinkable happened and their all everything guard Medlock was lost for the season. Now they sit at 2-11 and appear to be hopeless. They do have a very solid frontcourt with Dobbins and Bowdry. Both are vry good players. EMU's biggest problem is guard play and that will play right into Temples favor. The assist / TO ratio is poor and getting the ball inside to their talented big guys is not as easy as it should be, With a lack of punch from the outside teams are able to load up on the block to defend the Eagles strength.
Meanwhile the Owls have even more strength and depth at guard play with the addition of Fernandez, a very talented kid from south america who just became able to play and played his first game in the Owls last game. With Temples strength being EMU's weakness, this play looks very solid to me. I rarely lay more than a bucket or two on the road but may bite on this one. Also in the Owls favor is that EMU can't draw flys at home. They play in a beautiful fairly new building that is quiet as a morgue.
best of luck tonight, the play looks solid.
