Washington -11.5 (-110), 2 units
I didn't see any value on the line where it opened, but I am willing to get involved at the current number. Plus I'm having a good night which makes it a little easier to take a stab here. Washington is winless and this appears like it could be a classic "get right" game for them before they resume conference play with Oregon over the weekend.

Yesterday 6-3/YTD: 51-43-3, +8.55 units
Could have been a big night if Northwestern didn't blow their game with less then a minute to go. A turnover followed by two missed free throws allowed Pitt to come back and steal the game. But there are crazy swings in college basketball and this season will certainly be no different. Things have been going well for me lately so I'm not complaining. I'll be back tomorrow to try and keep it rolling.

Florida +2.5 (-110), 2 units
UMKC +11.5 (-110), 2 units
Kentucky -7.5 (-110), 2 units
I know Kentucky has not looked good to this point, but that is based on Calipari getting the pieces to fit together. There is talent on that team and this seems like a great matchup for them. Notre Dame is not the same team that they were years ago when Demetrius Jackson, Jerian Grant and Jack Cooley were running around. They are still well coached, they just don't have a lot of talent. This spread would probably be double digits if Kentucky got off to a better start. I will grab the 7.5 and look for Kentucky to right the ship today.

Oklahoma State -3.5 (-110), 2 units
Florida's best player got stretchered off the court in the first half and they are simply not the same team. They are lacking on offense without their 20ppg scorer and they are clearly distracted mentally. Maybe Florida's coach gives them a great halftime speech or they get some good news on Johnson and feel better about it. But it is hard to feel good about Florida coming back after seeing their team in tears on the sideline and watching FSU take over the game.
I was leaning towards BC +3.5 against Syracuse, but I'm going to pass. I like that BC has faced a very tough schedule and have shown well in some of those games. But Syracuse is getting Buddy Boeheim back today and their improved 2-3 zone could be problematic for BC.
