4-0 this week - Thanks to Fairfield, Maryland, Temple and La-Lafayette!

Wednesday:

St.Louis +2.5 at Georgia - Georgia is horrible and StL has a good coach in Majerus.  My guess is StL wins this game.

I'm going to guess people picking the George Mason/GW game will all be on GMason tonight getting 3.5.

S'up Stud!

This game isn't really on my radar but at a glance St.Louis has lost last two (neutral/road) games while Georgia has won it's last two home games SU.
Georgia has been flat out horrible ATS this season but tonight is the lowest number they have seen.
I can't convince myself of either side so no play here.

Rockstar - agree with your thoughts, but STL was playing tougher opponents (Notre Dame) and Georgia barely beat Jax State by 3 at home!  Should be a close one.

Koose - Under is probably is the play, but I don't look at Totals often.

K43 - Just trying to keep up with you buddy!

bracks - don't like my SEC?  The top teams are tougher than expected this year, good for winning money ATS.  And the bad teams are real bad!  LSU, Georgia, Arkansas right now!

Bradley -5 at Northern Illinois - Bradley is a better team and coming off a win over Illinois.  NI has only beaten TSU who is horrible this year.  The big difference, if NI can keep this one close, they'll lose the cover at the end of the game considering they shoot 51% from the FREE THROW line.  I'll take a low spread vs a horrible FT team!

Duke -4 at Wisconsin - I hate Duke with a passion.  But gotta think they win this game by more than 4.

vols- Didn't mean it like that, although, i did think they got a lil too much credit early. Just mean it has always been a conference that I really need all yr to get a hold of. I will be waiting for your thoughts of "The Real SEC Game of the Day" on the 5th. UK vs. NC

Ohio State -7 vs Florida State - If this was football fade the Buckeyes, but it's not.  OSU has a very solid team and minus a slow start vs UNC should be undefeated.  FSU has only reached 60 points once in the past 4 games and those were against half decent opponents.  I think they only get to around 60 tonight as well and OSU has been lighting it up averaging 85 ppg.  Look for a double digit win here.

bracks - I'm not going to say I have a good hold of the SEC.  I don't know what my record picking SEC games is, it gets worse once it is in conference I think, haha.  If I had to do a run down here it is:

UK - talented, but haven't played much together and will be overvalued.
TN - hate to rate my own team...blowing bad teams out, teams that slow it down have an advantage vs us ATS.
UGA - Bad program!
UF - they are surprising me right now
Vandy - will be undervalued ATS early season
USC - good guards, Downey is fun to watch...they play tough

LSU - bad team now
Miss St - probably overvalued from their luck run in SEC tournament
Ole Miss - Undervalued as they have strong guards
Ark - they are all suspended, fade them
Aub - hard to read, feel they overacheived last year
Bama - not sure.

I really like the Bradley play, but shouldn't this line be closer to DD?  NIU is brutal and Bradley has beaten and/or hung in there with teams much, much better than NIU.  Is this too good to be true??

The only knock on Bradley is they've faltered so far on the road (0-2)...but the season has just started so I don't know how much stock I can put in that.

clutch22 - BOL tonight!

parlaid - That one just looked way too easy to me...BOL if you play

ATLfader - I think OSU is going to be very strong this year.  I lost on FSU earlier this year, if I lose this one I'll be done betting their games.

fennster - My biggest worry with Bradley is the fact they are coming off a win over Illinois...could be a let down spot.  However, if it is close with a couple of minutes to go I think FT shooting becomes the difference in the game.
