MONDAY NCAA 151

well what a huge slate of monday games....39 games on a monday starting at 11am  championship monday hoops  why not have all the games end before 8pm so players can watch the championship???   well again mostly mid majors, a few bigger teams but they will be done by 8pm   so lets see if we can find some winners  

 11am looking at this N.eastern/monmouth game  1st thing looks like this could be a higher scoring game, last 6 games N.E, has scored at least 78 pts 85 twice 82, and 91 ..Monmouth not so much they seem to score in the mid 60's usually  NE is 12-5 Over, 4-1 over after a win, 6-4 over away, 9-3 over as a dog

the line is Monmouth -3.5  146.5  and it seems N.eastern likes to score on the road also, they just played 3 home games going 1-2  but before that they played 5 str road games and scored 77, 82,83,85,91 last 3 games they are avg 80 pts and giving up 84  and Monmouth last 3 are avg 65 and gave up 70  away NE is avg 77 pts and giving up 81 at home MM is avg 68 and giving up 69  reason i am saying this is because N.Easterns TT is 71.5 , and with the line what it is and total what it is oddsmakers are calling for a 75-71 game , NE is avg 16 assist last 3 and away they avg 16 and MM at home is avg 12 assist  last 3 games just 10 assist , last 3 games NE is shooting really well much better than monmouth is , and even when away they are shooting better than MM does at home ...NE has 5 players scoring in double digits  3 for monmouth  no injuries on either team  

in this game i do favor N.Eastern +3.5 and might play it  but for now i am going to go OVER 71.5 TT they have the offense for sure, and just going by what they have been scoring , they should get this  i have them scoring 77+  they are 6-4 ats away   7-5 ats as a dog  monmouth is 2-5 ats at home and are 3-7 ats as a favorite and 1-5 ats as a home favorite   

over 71.5 TT N.E.   and possible play on N E +3.5  i do not see the line going up at all  maybe the total 

Merrimack @ Marist should be interesting  2 hot teams right now, still pissed i ddnt bet merrimack last game, they have won 5 of their last 6 and 9 of their last 11, both teams coming off a win and cover merrimack has won 3 of their last 5 road games , and Marist has won their last 7 home games , last year each team won on the road as dogs marist is 8-1 str up at home, and 5-1-1 ats at home, 7-3-1 ats as a favorite, 5-1-1 ats as a home favorite, Merrimack is 5-2-1 ats in conf games this year, and 6-3-1 ats after a win, other stats i give the edge to Marist, but to be honest its a tuff call  , 

Drexel at Towson  heres a game for all those Under bettors , the total is just 125 , but drexel's last 3 games they are holding teams to 48 pts, stony brook 37 willmary 58 and monmouth 51  drexel has won their last 3 and towson has won their last 2 we all know how towson likes unders but i think with drexel playing like they are this should stay under the total here, towson is a 6.5 pt favorite, towsons TT is 65.5 and drexels is 59.5  i mean towson did just score only 48 pts in a loss to Monmouth and they won scoring 61 their last game  maybe a under TT 65.5 towson????  wonder where this total will go

well doing what i love doing going through all games and thinking out loud even if i do not have a play  why not??

Love your insight to these games RUM!  My take is road pups awake home teams hung lol.  Took NEastern +3.5 1 u straight up and a 3 team ML dog par NEastern +150, Drex +220 and Albany at home +190 24-1 per dollar fer shitsNgiggles. Well done bud! 

SF Austin at Nicholls st and again just a 3.5 pt favorite, same as they were last game when they played at N.O. and they did cover winning by 5 ...SFA has lost just 3 games all very close, and Nicholls has lost 2 in a row now after winning 5 str and 8 of 9 ..Nicholls won both meetings last year they won 73-61 at home as a 4 pt fav, and they won 94-70 at SFA as a 1 pt dog , its very hard to bet against SFA in these spots, its not a big number and they are a really good team and they just seem to win, and they cover when they are a favorite as they are 10-2 ats as a favorite, 10-3 ats after a win, 6-3 ats away, 8-1 ats in conf games , and they are 11-1 str up as a favorite, 5-1 str up as an away favorite, this game does worry me a little but so did their last game when they were a small favorite at N.O but they won by 5 giving 3.5 so they barely covered, and Nicholls st is a good team also and at home they are 5-1 str up, they have not been a home dog yet, but they are just 3-8 str up as a dog, and 5-6 ats as a dog, now if i was going to bet this i would most likely buy down to -2.5 because i think every point will be important, and they are due to not cover, even the game they lost 4 games ago vs Mcneese st they covered as a 10 pt dog and lost by 2  ...but i am going to go a diff route here for now, i may still play them i think many probably will its just too tempting  but i am going to go OVER the total here ....i am going over 143  SFA does score in the mid 70's a lot 2 of last 3 they have scored 84 and 85 pts, and Nicholls st has been scoring a lot also Nicholls is avg 74 a game but they give up 78 , so i think SFA should be able to get to 76-78 pts , Nicholls last 3 games they are avg 79 pts and giving up 87  , i think this should be a 79-73 type of game  i think this could get to 150+ and so with this total being 143-143.5  i am going to go OVER  and maaybe still try SFA after i see what this line does  i do not think this total will go down so i am betting it now, 

Over 143 SFA/Nicholls st  

possible SFA-2.5-3.5

 interesting   

Looking at LIU at Lemoyne now off the top this line looks low to me, or maybe i just think LIU is a much better team than Lemoyne and i do...they are undefeated in conf play so far at 5-0 but they are just 1-4 ats , they are 9-0 str up as a favorite, 4-0 str up as an away favorite, with this line being just -1.5 i would play this ML , now LIU has won their last 5 and Lemoyne is at home coming off a road win at chicago st 72-57....also reason i think LIU is much better, for one they were picked to win their conf this year and if ya look at the 3 games they played on the road right before this 5 game winning streak, they lost by 4 83-87 at Miss st, they lost at FIU 79-86 and FIU is very good at home , then they lost at georgia 74-89 in a game where they were ahead at halftime 44-41 and in the box score they made as many shots, had equal offensive rebounds they lost by 15 because they were just 3/13 from 3 and georgia made 10 and they took 5 fewer ft's and made 6 fewer  this is not a bad team , LIU has won the last 3 meetings and all of them they were a small favorite also  they were -1.5 at lemoyne and won 76-61 they were -2.5 at home and won 78-62, and they were a 3 pt dog in 24 and won 76-64  so maybe this line is about right  i do not think so i have this at -3.5  so its not far off  , LIU should have a big advantage on the boards too which should lead to extra shots, last 3 games they avg 14 offensive boards and Lemoyne is avg just 6  , only thing i do not like is that they only shoot ft's at 61% ..and this is back to back road games for LIU but they did win back to back road games earlier this year when they started the season with 3 road games and they won at IU Indy and then at Airforce , they have won 6 road games this year, soits not like they do not know how to win on the road , and there are no injuries to worry about 

at HardRock LIU ml is -120    thats where i am going  

LIU -ml  -120

3 plays in so far  2 possible plays  

yeah holiday bucket day . like the road dogs early, ya neva know. got in on that over Nicholls/SFA see that going up by morn. Gnight RUM Lets cash some Crumpets and Coffee in the morn.

@DicksPicks4U

 yea was my 1st thought too, that the line seemed low but when i seen that their spreads have always been like this maybe its just the way it is, i felt same way about SFA being low, but road teams cannot be huge favorites when its the mid majors or smaller anyway,  and i do not bet unders , like the towson one  ill follow maybe but i just do not look for unders, hell it could go way over,  the line seemed low at 125, if i liked the under i think id go under TT before under 125, 64-62 is over  lol  

there are 10 games tomorrow with a spread of -1.5 and +1.5 thats crazy  and 4 games with a 2.5 spread  and 7 with a 3.5 spread   thats 20 games that either team could win easily in my opinion ...theres 1 spread of 14.5  and 1 of 12.5  the rest are under 8  to be honest by the spreads its a very competitive monday in hoops...39 games and only 2 with a spread higher than 8 pts 

I was noticing that RUM ... was actually thinking of blindly picking the home team for $20 per game on every game with a 1.5 spread and see how it plays out. Worst I do is lose $200 (2 units for me) but I tend to think the home team wins at least half of those games, maybe more. 

@RUM151

 For the Northeastern game, where did you see that there was no injuries? I peeped last game Northeastern played , 4 of Northeastern's opening night starters didn't play due to injury?

@Craginator

 You say Northeastern has 5 players scoring in double digits???

Did you not see that 3 out of those 5 are INJURED,  not playing. 

Should fact check a lil

Good luck 151

@FadingseanS2

 i use teamrankings and it showed no injuries  sorry if they were wrong  they are usually up to the minute 

again i use a site called team rankings  they are usually up to the minute  thats where i checked   very sorry  

again i use a site called team rankings  they are usually up to the minute  thats where i checked   very sorry  

@Keyzs

 Yes I stood away, because of that!

always do your own homework!!!

p

Northeastern has no reported injuries at this time.

this is what I saw

covers wont let me paste from other sites

i just googled n.eastern basketball injuries  no injuries reported

then it used my site teamrankings  no injuries

not sure whaT YOU GUYS ARE TALKING ABOUT INJURIES    THEY HAVE THE SAME lineup playing today that they had the last game when they beat Elon 85-78   i i am looking at the live scoring in the game  same starting 5 that started  and i went to 5 sites even their own website  and see no injuries...but the one guy pratt only played 3 games this year  and another guy i cant find anything  but if they have been out since early in the year maybe thats why  ....but i know since last few games they have no one out  they are up 12-5  14 mins left 1st half 

@Toothfairy1

 1 thing look and see how long they have been out also  2 of the guys have been out since beginning of the year  if your going by how a team has been playing???  what site did you use because i googled it  it took me to my site, covers, and finlly i went to the teams site   then i looked up each scorer to see when they have played  their leading scorer that is shows played 3 games  ... but they should still have him listed  

friggin NE was up 27-22 with over 5 mins left  and scored 3 pts last 5 mins  38-30  the over is possible  not sure if 1st half over hit  it might have at 68 , i went with team total here and that 5 mins scoring droubt hurt 

oops seen the score wrong  NE is up 38-30  sitting here watching the game at half because i left  and they kept talking about how well NE was shooting and im thinking they are losing...lol   its what ya get from staying up till 3am then getting up at 7
