Arizona State -6.  1 unit.  Was hoping for 3-4 but I cant pass on the fact that ASU has already been battle tested at UNLV and passed with flying colors while Marquette hasn't really seen tough action at all.

Want to go with Oklahoma State so bad but wary of the 10 on the road...

ASU let Marquette back in that game.  Still, Gonzaga can hopefully make it a 3-2 day....not looking good though.

As for tomorrow, early play:

Utah State -1.  2 units.  Nothing about Weber State this year looks like something I would bank on, just recently being worked by Colorado State.  Meanwhile, Utah State has rolled off some impressive wins on USC, UCSB on the road and Mississippi State.  Not sure why the line isnt higher.

Waiting on a few others...

Haven't had an upside down day in over two weeks and to lose two that were in complete control...ugh.

2-3 on the day for -1.3 units.

Overall 39-22-1 for +18.1 units.  First month so far at 64%...

OK, new day, ready to start a new streak.

Illinois -3. 1 unit.  The Illini are just blasting teams including a 26 point crush of Bradley.  UNLV has been disappointing so far losing at home to UCSB and ASU.

Wisconsin -1,5. 1 unit.  St Louis may be taking care of business like the Badgers but ultimately, the Badgers and their lock down defense has already proven itself against big league talent vs Florida.  It's enough evidence for me.

These and Utah State today....

Syracuse -4.5. 2 units. Minnesota will have put up a tougher test than Cal is about to.

Wichita State -4. 2 units. BYU can match offensively but the Shockers D should put this away in the second half.

Baylor -3. 1 unit. Baylor won't let up like Gonzaga did.

Two early plays.

Indiana State -7.  1 unit.  Tulsa has had the misfortune of playing and losing to 7-0 Wichita, 4-0  Creighton, and 5-0 Missouri State.  The tell is they have also lost to a meh Oral Roberts team.  Indiana State has taken down Notre Dame and should have had Belmont.  I don't see things changing for the 0-4 Golden Hurricanes.  

Drexel +10.  1 unit.  Arizona is winning this game but Drexel played UCLA tough at Pauley, I think they can keep it single digits on a neutral floor with their defense.

Syracuse -3.5. 4 units.  Baylor is good no doubt but this Syracuse team is blowing through really good teams like Baylor.  Line is too low to not drop the hammer.  What's curious is its dropping.

Dayton +1. 1 unit.  Cal hung in there with Syracuse but I was more impressed with how Dayton played Baylor.

Lines moving all over the place fast this AM.  Lots of people off early for Turkey Day I guess.

Chaminade +22.  1 unit.  Minnesota has been handling teams but in the teens range as a margin of victory.  In the case of the 30 point blowout for Chaminade, Gonzaga runned and gunned them after being pissed they let the Dayton game get away.  Chaminade played Baylor within 16, I expect the same results here.

Unbelievable.  Indiana State was pulling away too.  Lost two bets on the same team.  

At least huge pick Syracuse came through.

4-2 on the day (both on Indiana State) for +4.8 units.

Overall 46-26-1 for +25,7 units.

UCLA -12.5. 1 unit.  Alford is better than Howland in one way, he beats up on mediocre opponents.

Arizona State +4.  1 unit.  ASU has taken down Marqutte (were up by 20 at one point), UNLV in Vegas, and Bradley.  Creighton 4-0 but not playing top tier talent.  I expect an "upset"

One last add.  Wake Forest +14.  1 unit.  Maybe at KU that line can be justified but Wake isn't a push-over and this is being played in the Bahamas.  Every year it seems the dogs do well in the Atlantis tourney.

Have a good Thanksgiving everyone!

SC is horrible and will get run out of the GYM... Their whole lineup is D2 type players... Nova is going to run them...

Might want to look at Mizzou, Nova, UCLA parlay... These teams are playing teams that will not be able to hang... Strongest play is nova, SC has not played a single quality opponent and 1 road game... Not to mention SC has no talent and this "run and gun" style is avg 72pts a game...

I want to believe that about SC but I really think they keep it close today despite obviously wanting them to get buried.  Enfields group has overachieved so far, why not today?  Line up to 12 so Im definitely in the minority...

I think NW can hang.  Id take Missouri at a couple possessions but not 4.

GL lmontalv. 

Hugh - GL as well.

PGA - Princeton is a dirty word to a UCLA Bruin (96 tourney).

Hey, someone else can bet it, Im just staying away.

Lol agreed. UCLA looks solid. I really like Coach Alford. Being a resident of NM but a NMSU grad he was a thorn in our side for awhile. Glad to see him leave lol

PGA - ha.  Glad we could help out. Ill take his regular season winning but maybe well need a tourney bullpen closer coach.  He definitely has no mercy on lesser teams which even Howland didn't do so I like that.

I think you need a bit of a mean streak in college sports as a coach and he seems to have that.

GL today.

I really don't think the Tourney failureswere his fault. UNM has a history of being overhyped and choking in the tourney. Too much pressure on that college to winbecause of the crappy history. Also they rely too much on the 3. His guys are discplined and play good fundamental BB. You won't be disappointed.

This game was a neutral site game not a road game. You missed out. Purdue is errible. They had trouble with Rider, Siena, and Northern Kentucky. No leadership and turning the ball over at will.
