Back to the grind -- anyone else have the NCAA Full Court package from ESPN? I love it, I get to watch random ass games that only total degenerates like me care about. I was flipping between games last night and my wife goes "why are you watching Texas Tech and Northwestern State?" I was truthful when I said it was "information gathering purposes."
You know you have a great woman when, for your birthday, she gets you NBA League Pass and NCAAB Full Court Press. I told her that she should never expect her husband to get off the couch on the weekends as a result.
Oh yeah, I'm really pissed that we aren't getting a line for the CSUB/UCLA game. I called 5Dimes to see if one would be put up but they said no. Has anyone seen a line on this game anywhere? If you do, please let me know what the line is and what book is offering it.
To today's card, just leans for right now, will lock in final plays later:
1. Toledo +30.5 -- bense covered this well in his discussion thread about the game. This will be the biggest game on Toledo's schedule, and if we are going to get a good effort from them on any game, it should be this one. Thirty is a ton of points, and if Toledo were playing, say, UNC or Louisville, then perhaps I'd hesitate about getting this many points cause those two squads (more importantly, their coaches) have zero qualms about running the score up. Izzo doesn't do that. My only concern is that MSU's bench might be good enough to extend a 20 point lead when they come in to 35 or so. Either way, MSU has to completely dominate this game for 40 minutes to cover this number. Too many variables to want to lay the chalk here. Late 3 to cover? It's possible.
2. Dayton +6 -- Dayton is an impressive squad with a great win over a talented but young Georgia Tech team. Given Nova's terrible playing last game, I don't know if they can get a comfortable win over an experienced, disciplined squad.
3. Cornell -4 -- The Ivy League looks like it is gonna surprise people this year, with Cornell leading the way.
Will add more leans/thoughts later and lock in plays accordingly, just want to get this out there.
