SU winners: 20 OT record: 6-1 Record on the open: 29-23-1 Winners because of the Open: 4 Losers because of the Open: 1 Pushes because of the Open: 1
Notes: -Felt good about the card today and got rewarded with some easy wins -Wisconsin got off to a great start and Ohio State couldn't keep up, nice to see the lead extend and when you trail by that much to a Bo Ryan team there's no chance to come back because they're gonna run the clock down under 5 seconds on the shotclock and still drill shots -Iowa got off to a bad start/Minnesota made all their shots early. Thankfully the Hawkeyes bounced back and went on a good run while the Gophers went into a long drought. Rodney Williams didn't play at all in the 2H I think due to a lingering shoulder injury so that's something that needs to be watched. If you can zone them, you win -USC choked up a game they led for 38 minutes at Haas, important win for a bubble team like Cal who I don't think is in the tournament -Miami/Arizona/Michigan all survived but didn't look too impressive. It's that time of year where great teams don't get motivated
Guesses: Pitt 5.5 Nova 6.5 K-State 10.5
leans: Notre Dame +10.5

Pitt has a great homecourt and are one of the deepest teams in the nation, I just don't think they're this good. A lot of this number is based on kenpom ranking them as a top-5 team, which I don't agree with, and Notre Dame did get blasted on Saturday in Providence. Pitt ran into a buzzsaw in Milwaukee as well, but the extra defensive intensity i expect tonight isn't going to make Pitt 6 points better on a neutral. Mike Brey will use his burn offense and will probably go zone, which is exactly what I want as these 10 points will be more like 15 in a game played in the 50s (also like under). The Irish haven't shot well this year, but the Scott Martin injury has forced them to use more big guys in the rotation and that's good to match up with Zanna/Adams/Taylor as that is what usually sets the Panthers apart. Cooley should be motivated tonight and I don't love Jamie Dixon at all

seems to me ND has tired legs their second half numbers have been way down. the line was set at 10.5 and with over 75% of the bets rolling in on the Golden Domers its strange that the line hasnt gone down.

thanks GW. i agree with most of what you said but this ND 2-3 zone is an abomination. ND's only hope is if Brey unveils a couple wrinkles tonight. i just don't think he has anymore tricks up his sleeve. GL

Number seems inflated, you're right about that, and no one wants to be on a public dog cuz that's way worse than even a public favorite. However, I trust myself and I liked the Irish preseason quite a bit. While they've had some puzzling defeats, I think that's only increased this number and added value for me
