Everyone should be they were 21-10 last year and only have to win by 1 bucket against a team that was 12-18.

With u and king kappy on Brown, I think I will tail you guys.  I have been trying to get enough balls all day to bet Umass, but I haven't pulled the trigger yet.  Any thoughts on Princeton and Manhattan tonight?  I think it is a good spot for the Jaspers.  Good Luck tonight.

PRIN games are usually so low scoring that laying ANY points seems almost foolish in my mind.

Don't see any STRONG angles here yet,other than it's PRIN's home opener and MAN's first road game. 

If you asked 100 people on the street or in a sportsbook have they ever heard of these two teams. 100% would say PRIN,what %  would say MAN ????

King,

Why do you think Cornell is getting all the love on this forum? Just based on last years records?  I got Umass winning by 5.

What do you think about these:

Ill Chic, Cin, Kent, Cal Irvine and Manhattan?

Thanks

I LOVE HOME DOGS !!!!

But something stinks in denmark,both teams had equal records last year 18-13 and 18-14 but NEB was only 4-8 on the road while STL was 14-3 at home.Yet NEB is favored by 1

Mostly because of last year because that's the information everyone has,some will use results from this year so far,but when you put those 2 together it looks on paper like a slam-dunk for COR and you only have to win by 1 bucket.

How convenient for the SIMPLETON bettor to feel COMFORTABLE placing their money down.

ILLCHI/C.MICH - Don't like HOME teams that only have to win by 1 bucket,unless they're playing a BEAST.

TOL/CIN - Not a fan of DD's games,but are teams really ready to cover DD's right out of the gate.

KST/YOUST - First road game for a team that only had 5 road wins all year and again they only have to win by 1 bucket.

UCIRV/LOMAR - Shocked at how many people are laying points on a team that only won 3 games last year.Thought LOMAR was the play but now i'm scared.

I'm was being witty and sarcastic in responding to that remark.

I DO NOT LIKE CORNELL TONIGHT

• UMass has one of the youngest teams in the country as UMass features the top recruiting class in the Atlantic 10 with five freshmen. The Minutemen are also welcoming two transfers who will be eligible this season in Sean Carter from Oregon State and Hashim "Big City" Bailey from Memphis. Sophomore Trey Lang also returns to the team after not playing in 2008-09, giving UMass eight newcomers for this season's roster.

• UMass returns just 36.1 average points. In looking at it by percentages, UMass returns 49.1 percent of its scoring with Harris leading the way. UMass lost nearly all of its rebounding with the graduation of 2009 Atlantic 10 Defensive Player of the Year Tony Gaffney, the final cut of the NBA Champion Los Angeles Lakers. UMass has just 24.3 percent of its rebounding returning as Gaffney grabbed 10.2 per game.

Got this from the UMASS website.  Concerns?  Cornell brings back their starting five.
