Both teams lost 3 of 4 top scorers.. but FSU has 6'6 gd Mann who is the best player out there..FSU has about 4 or 5 athletic gds that can all play..one of those is Walker a 5 star frosh who will erupt very soon...they also have Cofer at 6'8 that can score and 7'4 Koumadge and 6'9 Kabengele...will take time for these guys to gel together but vs the Rams frontline they should dominate ...Rams have Chartouny one of the best gds in the A-10...this kid can do it all but cannot shoot 3's...the Rams offense is hurting..they lost to an avg Miami O team 55-54... Rams shot 3-24 from the 3..and gave up 51 rebounds...and 25 offensive bds...FSU could get double of that tonite...think this is a bad matchup for Rams...FSU has Mann,much depth in the backcourt and a much better front line... game is in Montego Bay...many years ago I was a contestant on NBC's game show "3 on a Match"...Bill Cullen was the host.. I was a junior at North Texas home in NY for x-mas vacation...I was winning and had a trip to Montego bay...all I had to do was answer one more right question...Bill Cullen to Box.. " box,true or false Aristole Onassis was born a poor person"...I answered " that's true Bill"...Sorry box,his father was a great tobacco owner in Greece". The contestant next to me answered the next question and went to freak'in Montego Bay...
Col -16.5 over Quinn ***
Col loaded with decent gds,..Has King who should dominate..Quinn has one player in Daniels...Quinn offense is just avg,,,,Buffs win this by +20
Iona 3.5 over Weber *
Just want one * back from the Cuse game...McGill shooting 3's just maybe they play enough defense.

Great story, Box. I asked my wife your question and she will not be going to Montego Bay either. Sounds like you answered Bill with some confidence. Who the hell would know the answer? By the way, when was this this show on TV? I never saw it or heard of it.
Glad to see you at this forum. I always enjoy your comments and insights on college BB. Good luck with your picks.

moman.. the show was on NBC at I think 10 am est...We had just visited NYC{ I live an hour above the city}..we had gone to see the Johnny Carson show the night before and in the NBC elevator a guy was handing out flyers to appear on "3 on a match"...the tests was at the Waldorph Hotel the next morning.. I was with my girlfriend from North Texas who was visiting NY for the 1st time...I took the test..it was 100 questions multiple choice..over 100 people took it...it was easy for me..a lot of currents events,history,trivial pursuit type stuff.. I'm good with that...after I finished my test I got in line and watched them correct...the 10 people in front me all failed....the lady behind the desk said thank you and they walked out into the lobby...then she said you passed please take a seat over there...I got 90 right.. 2 weeks later I get a call from NBC for the shooting.. I was put in a group of 25...then the producer comes in a matches you...house wife,straight short hair guy and me... my hair was long...I watched 5 shows taped before me...then on Jan 25th[ not sure of date it was going to be televised nationally.. I was already back at North Texas...the week before I was on LBJ dies..so NBC shows are preempted...Match wasn't shown for 3 days..so we were told just go backwards from how many days it was preempted..and it will be shown..so on Thur was my original date..so I figure I will be on Monday....well thursday comes and I think I will still be on .. The show opens with me Don Pardo of Sat Night fame is the announcer...says Its 3 on a match and our 1st contestant is " box a phys ed major at North Texas St,et....well its on ...I have all my friends and roommates watching laughing there behind's off...those 5 shows that were preempted before me never got on....bill cullen also said Box you went to North Texas..Joe Greene went there.. Bill Cullen was a huge Pitt Steelers fan....anyway I win the 1st round. I go for a match..answer the 1st question right...2nd question T or F.. A philatelist is someone who collects stamps...I looked right in the camera and said" thats false bill"...oops I'm wrong...back to the board with everyone alive..again I win and go to the board...then comes the Onasis question...wrong again...back to the bd and the woman wins..gets my Montego Bay vacation...
about a month after the show in the mail comes my winnings.. A Sears blender, pots and pans and a case of munchy peanut brittle.. my girlfriend who was with me in NY I married.....I gave her the sears blender...I still have one pot left in my basement as a trophy...and the peanut brittle..my roommates ate it all and left one small piece for me because they were ashamed of me....The North Texas Student Dailey had put an article and the Dallas Morning News also mentioning Box a North Texas Junior will appear on NBC's game show...not allowed to give the results out...so for the next 2 years at North texas I was famous all over...with 16,000 at my school I was constantly told " great job,gave NT a great name,etc.. it was always in jest...I think...but llife was good for me after... coached HS basketball for 23 years...was a teacher,coach,Athletic Dir asst principle and Principal for a total of 39 years....but still went to Montego Bay
