***GWarner27's 12/1 CB Picks (26-7 78.8% YTD)***

GWarn- I fell into the same trap with GTech last night....I will be playing against NWestern on the road vs physical teams that play in your face D.....towards the end of the game (which Nwestern didn't pull starters) GTech started to play hard physical D and NWestern couldn't get a shot off.....

Richmond +3.5 (-110) @ Old Dominion

-This game should be a battle, but I like the road team here because their style of play will make it very difficult for ODU to get easy baskets. Richmond is coming off a huge victory against Purdue, and a lot of how they won that game is why I’m making this play today. A good team in Purdue shot 30% from the field and 25% from beyond the arc, which is really where teams can beat the Spiders. St. Mary’s was the absolute worst matchup for them last year in the NCAA tournament because they shoot the lights out from 3, but I’m not afraid of ODU doing the same. ODU struggles enough at the FT line without a hand in their face, so covering the line late with FTs will be tough even with the short line. Getting this over a possession is fine for me because I love having my money behind returning A10 Player of the Year Kevin Anderson. To win this game handily, ODU will need to shoot well from deep and while they are at home I doubt we see a Northwestern-like performance tonight. ODU is certainly a good team, but I think the Spiders are better and they have the perfect defense to slow a very talented squad.

Nice Run and BOL Warner

Concerns me as well.  I could see a team like Richmond getting amped up to play a team like Purdue, but not pumped up to play a team like ODU and get schooled if they come out flat.

............on top of that I can see ODU amped up to play a team that is already 6-1, beat Purdue, and coming into their house.  Three Whammy's
