POM
Wisconsin -1.5 Wiscy is the best team in the big ten and Illini are still inconsistent scoring wise and will struggle against Wiscy's defense... Also the best player on the floor is clearly Tucker and he should dominate this game... I have been banking against the Illini at home so far this year... OSU, and Maryland were both POY's for me... this one isn't because the Illini has improved since then but I don't think they are close to the calibar of Wiscy.
POW
Creighton -3 Creighton has finally peaked and just starting to hit there stride... Southern is a tough defensive team but the differenecs between these teams is the fact that they both play very good defense but Creighton has consistent scorers on the offensive end....
Indiana +4.5 Indiana is playing there best basketball of the year and I think this team is finally taking on and buyin into Calvin's system. UConn is young and will struggle against defensive minded teams like Indiana... also I think Indiana is two big and experienced down low for this young UConn team... I think Uconn gets the outright win in this one...
Regular Plays
NC State +7 Getting 7 points at home against a defensive minded low scoring Duke team? Sure Duke looked great last night but that was a terrible team. NC State is far from a terrible team... if the ML has value here I will take it because NC State has a shot to win this game outright and I think they might just get it done...
Wichita +1 Bradley is still a year away and I think Wichita goes up I-74 and goes 1-1 on there I-74 road trip.. THey lost to Illinois State but it won't happen twice in one trip. I still put them as being a top 4 MVC team and they are starting to shoot the ball better... They should win this game and they will win this game... As I said Bradley is a year away...
Okie State +10 (Bought the half point) Look This is way to many points for a team coming off a big win and looking for it to carry over. They are the better team IMO and even though Texas A&M has played way past there potential they are not a better team here but there home court advantage is big... I think OKIE STATE has a shot and a small play on teh ML is definately worth the value... but I think OKie State loses by 4-6... Or wins outright... Only reason this play isn't bigger is because they could be warn out after there big win.... but i don't see them in a let down here.. this is a huge game for them....
New Mexico State +2.5 Love there home court advantage... Think they can pull this game out... Place will be load because they want to take down this Nevada team... They also do create matchup problems...
