TEXAS TECH +6 Think I am 5-0 on this blog posting big12 and ivy picks every once in a while the last 2 weeks. Hopefully my raiders can keep it going.ATS this year. Helps that two of oklahoma's starters are out. Tech has not had a conference road win in 2 years, however they are a little better than in the past few years, so they should know with OU short squaded they will have more belief that they have a chance to snap this conference road loss streak. They also treat this game as more of a rivalry than OU treats it so I like that as well. Let down as well for OU following the texas win. Overs is a good value play as well. Expect that line to move up around 152 . Can see this being a 3ball fest for sure with cade davis and warren needed to do most of the scoring tonight for OU, and this will probably occur on the perimeter. |

Oh ya, mason and fitzgerald. Two of the sooners productive freshman starters. Espn radio lubbock had the guy on from SoonerScoop.com or whatever the rivals affiliate is for OU and he definately said those two will not see the court tonight.

Looking into this TTU/OKLA game tonight. BTW everyone is aware that two of OU players are out for the minor pettytheft incident. Forgot which two they were if anyone can remind me.

I have only made two plays in one post on here, doing an extremely lengthy write up on BIG12 TEX/OKST on monday. Spent alot of time on it to come up with TEX and UND and the game seemed to go exactly as what my post read. I said I would only do IVY and BIG12 posts since that is what I really know best so I am looking into iowa st vs baylor and aggies and mizzou and will post my opinion after I finish reading some more of these teams local media and what not. I need a Bigeast play. Anyone have an opinion under 137 in Georgetwn. Seems high, doubt GTOWN shoots 33/46 from the floor like i watched on saturday against duke. |

yeah i know but they outrebounded mizzou 42-26 and still lost by double digits so it can be misleading. I am not expecting rebounding the be the biggest factor in this one. Barnes knows the struggles they have had in the past playing at ok st as his team has often overlooked state in previous years.. But I Just dont feel they will overlook the cowboys tonight as in the past. They have @ok st, @ou, home vs kansas their next three. More concerned about them letting us down @ norman which is sandwiched in between tonights mathcup and next weeks battle vs KU. |

Ok, I posted friday on this blog about possibly helping out everyone who struggles with their ivy league plays since I was an ex pigskin player for brown and know alot of connections still associated with the conference. I was only going to post ivy league plays on this blog on thursday night but being a grad student at Texas Tech and wintessing alot of BIG 12 hoops on local lubbock tv's espn plus, I feel that I should contribute to this blog in BIG12 as well. I saw UNCforev struggling between Texas and OK st. Couldnt agree more with the unders on that game. While those teams avg 160 pts a game combined on offense they only give up in the mid 60's on defense. Since ok st will definately be fired up in hopes for another markee win, and texas as well if they hope to regain a chance at a 1 seed, I see a premium of intensity on every defensive possesion the whole game for both teams. Now as for the line. I love Texas in this spot, even though I have no affiliation or love for them. I noticed they are on a current streak of 0 for 8 ATS. This seems to be typical of texas football and basketball where they have superior talent but get lazy in stretches of games during the season and keep inferior talent in the game. This university is very similar to another texas team, THE DALLAS COWBOYS, whom also have amazing talent, will start the season hot like the longhorns did, and will crumble ATS mid season as both the cowboys and longhorns typically do. then they begin to turn things around mid/late season. All my buds loaded up on the cowboys after they started strong then were let down in nov to early dec with losses ATS to the skins, giants, san diego and greenbay. Then everyone stayed off the cowboys in disbelief they would have yet another collapse but then precede to cover their next four, @ wash, @ saints and philly twice. Then my buds all gets back on the boys wagon and minesoty spanks them to end their season. I see a similar pattern with the horns tonight. They have great size and length. Look for balbay to completely take away the 3 from the little white boy gage all night. Also, Texas has been horrible at the line the last few games especially Damion James. With the short layoff since the baylor loss id bet a hobos dickcheese Barnes spent a GREAT deal of time having these guys practice shooting drilles especially from the FT line, while also spending minimal time doing other drills and keeping his one practice yesterday relatively mild in intensity to conserve energy so they can play great defense all 40 minutes tonight. I feel it will be low scoring and tight first half. Texas will eventually pull away late and finish for once by knocking down the clutch FT's they need to. Finally, i like the horns and unders because of who ok st played last game. We all know mizzou plays at a crazy ridiculous up and down the court pace, and causes the opponent to constantly be sprinting the entire game which can really take a toll on the legs of an ok st team that only gets one day to recoop from that track meet where they probably sprinted double what texas did on saturday against baylor despite that game going into OT. Expect those legs to get tired by 2nd half and jumpers and ft's by the cowboys to come up shorter as the game progresses. TEXAS takes this one 77-68 |

My friend told me about this blog a few days ago and has been doing well tailing this UNC guy who apparently is very good. However, I see that he is struggling with his picks today on Ivy League hoops, but most people are not good betting the IVY. I just graduated out of Brown two years ago and am a proffessor/researcher at Texas Tech. I do not have enough time to follow hoops and cap it but I played football at brown and have alot of connections and buddies that played or currently play hoops in the ivy. I will only post on this blog every thursday night with ivy league exclusively but it will help everyone out considerably. Have a good weekend everyone
