I only use that comparison based on the public perception of how "good" Marquette is in comparison to Florida. Lets just see these numbers already...

Dude, I'm on all three of those too. Hell yeah.

If you're still thinking about Peay, keep waiting...it opened at 6 and already moved to 6.5....I'm hoping to get it at 8, but am expected it to move at least another 1/2 point...

Any thoughts on GW catching 17 in a game with a total of 118? Seems kinda odd. Will be on all 3 of your early plays

Only issue is GW's offense is beyond gross and SLU is coming home off of two extremely competitive losses on the road. The Bills are usually awesome on their home floor. I'm looking at SLU first half.

Cuse has been just moving along taking care of business.  They do not seem distracted by the Bernie Fine business or the fact that they are ranked #1 in the country.   It seems lately that every big number they cover.  Thing is - Boeheim has a deeper bench this year that can actually play ball, and with the grinding Big East Schedule he is using that bench to keep his entire roster fresher for a deep run in the NCAA.  It seems like a big # to cover against Marquette but the # is spot on when you consider the big win at G-town and now going on the road to SU.  Wouldn't be surprised if Cuse wins this one by 15 but could also see a 5-6 point win.  Better to stay away IMO

North Texas @ Arkansas State -3.5 (1 unit)

Very young Mean Green team on a back-to-back roadie after an OT win at S. Alabama Thursday night. Arkansas State has 3 home losses in Sun Belt play over the past three years. Like the Red Wolves quite a bit here.

Tone- Much appreciated. This is our best time of year with conference play finally underway. I like several of those (Oklahoma, Providence, Austin Peay, ULL) and could see us getting better lines on all of them (hopefully). UAB-Memphis line is strikingly low. Why Fullerton?

JFen- any thoughts about UF/Tenn game tomorrow. UF will be bombing 3's and Tenn loves to run and gun. Leaning over (146) and waiting on the line to go up as I'm sure the public will be on UF -7.5...

Florida should theoretically be able to score at will but my concerns are Tennessee's horrid shot selection and the abnormally early (11 A.M.) start time, which typically produces lower scores. Pace will be definitely there, just not sure about the shots falling at a consistent enough rate.

Definitely agree with you and the early start concerned me with the Gators. I attend majority of their home games and i can't remember a game starting this early for them in a long time. Probably just going to stay away.... Good luck tomorrow!

JFEN- Been follwing you, like the write ups!!

What do you think of the Florida ST vs Clemson under? I see this game barely breaking 100 pts.

Looking at Fullerton based purely on Cal Poly's last two games... a heartbreaking loss against UCSB on a near buzzer beater, followed by another hard-fought loss against LBSU that came down to the final minute. If Cal Poly has designs on winning the Big West, then they had to know those are the two teams to beat. And Cal Poly was oh so close to beating both but ultimately came up short both times.

Essentially, I just don't know how much Cal Poly has left in the tank emotionally. Quick turnaround from the LBSU game on Thursday, and I don't see them fired up to be playing Fullerton after those two games against UCSB and LBSU. Looking hard at CSF 1H plus the points.
