I am doing poorly this season on the basketball after doing well in NFL and college football, so you may want to fade my picks and make money while I lose it. That being said, I think my rationale and reasoning for my picks is solid and if you guys have any insight into what I'm doing wrong, feel free to let me know so I can stop the proverbial bleeding.
First big play is UConn Team Total Over 55.5 (max bet) : UConn is averaging 71.8 pts a game and have only scored under 60 twice this season. Once against Harvard, who I am sure was trying to slow the game way down against a Big East opponent and the other was the beginning of this week against Louisville who has went crazy with their emphasis on playing solid D...and it is working well in Big East play.
Second play Neb / Penn St under 118.5 (2 units) :
Both teams averaging just under 60 pts a game and I see this game being slow and low scoring. The chances of one or both teams not getting to their average is high and as a Nebraska fan, it pains me to say it will most likely be the Huskers. I have seen half a dozen of their games this year and they like to slow the game down to stay close.
Third play is Missou Team Total over 58.5 ( 2 units) :
Missouri is averaging 77 pts a game and even though they don't have Bowers (their best player), I still believe they find a way to score. The game after Bowers went down, against Georgia, they were back on track and scored 79. They may not cover against a talented Florida team, but they will put up a fight and score more than 60. Take this one with confidence.
More to come, posting these before the early games start. Again, not having much luck this year so fade me if you like, but either way, good luck to all and I hope you have success in your bets.

Canisius is not a dominate team that can make other teams look inferior and that is what this spread is suggesting. There are only 1 or 2 teams that are heads above the rest of the conference in the MAAC and Cani is not one of them. Siena beat them by three a week ago and I do not see Siena getting their doors blown off this time around.
Next play Tulsa +8.5 pts (2 units) :
Tulsa is doing much better than Tulane in conference play and I believe that is indicative of Tulsa being a better team than Tulane. Tulsa had a tougher non-conference schedule and ended up with a worse record than Tulane because of it. I believe this spread has value because of this fact and the cappers aren't digging past the records in this one. Tulane could win, but no way it is by this spread.
Next play La Salle +2 and ML +120 (2 units on either) :
I'm going with the ML personally for obvious reasons money-wise. I see Xavier getting favor from the books for being good most years and starting conference play 3-0, but they have done this against two of the bottom feeders in the A-10 and a solid Temple squad that shot very poorly in that game (33% from the field and 20% from 3 with 20 attempts). I think all of La Salle's loses have come against quality teams and that's why I think La Salle edges them here.
Next play South Dakota State -10.5 (MAX play) :
IUPUI is awful and have lost by an average of 20 pts to conference teams and the Summit has a lot of really bad teams in it. SDS is not one of them. SDS has played all of the top teams in the Summit and done well against them and the two bottom feeders they have played in the conference they've beat by an average of 17.5 and IUPUI is the bottom of the bottom-feeders.

Next play Louisville -5 teased down from -7 -150 ( 1 unit) :
I know that this is a VERY risky play laying 150 to win 100, but I don't see Louie losing this game with their new emphasis on playing suffocating D to compliment their offensive prowess. I've watched Louis' last three games and they are getting much better with each conference game.
Next play Creighton ML +145 (max bet) :
Creighton is taking care of business handily in the Mo Valley this season, beating good teams by 20+. Wichita State is the Blue Jays only threat for the lead in the conference and I see the Jays sending a message today. They are the top dog and want to establish to those doing the voting that they are the real deal and not an average mid-major. Creighton is a well-rounded and well-coached team with few weak spots and one of the best players in the nation. Creighton should win this game handily and I would take them big if they were the three point favorite, not the three pt dog.
Next play Charlotte +3 (2 units) :
Richmond has lost the last two games by an average of 13.5 pts to teams that remind me of Charlotte. Those games were away and this one will be home for Richmond, but I don't think that makes that big of difference in the A-10. The biggest reason I see this game going Charlotte's way is the discrepancy in rebounding between these two squads. Charlotte ranks in the top 30 in rebounds while Richmond is one of the nation's worst coming in at 331st place with a difference between the two teams of 11 rebounds. That is 11 extra shots the 49ers will get in this game. I will be taking the ML at +135 since I see Charlotte not only covering, but winning.

Adding one that I skipped over accidentally: ASU +7 and ML +280:
Arizona is overrated and ASU is a solid in state rival that will fight to the end and probably end up winning. Game starts now so not much of a write-up.

Adding two games that I like alot tonight, BUT you should like the title suggests. FADE my Picks!!! I am getting fukked like you wouldn't believe today. Every call going against me and in the Creighton game EVERY CALL the whole freaking game. That was such a rigged robbery and I should have known that the MVC would pay the refs to give the game to Wichita St so that the MVC can get two teams in the tourney. Still sick about that $hit, lost my a$$ on that one. Anyways, last two picks of the day are:
San Diego St -2.5 (4 units)
Western Mich -2.5 (3 units)
Again, not having much luck this year so fade me if you like, but either way, good luck to all and I hope you have success in your bets.
