Friday NCAA

[PirateAlew]

frustrating to lose UT Chat and Drake in OT, both teams with 2-3 times more fouls. refs were terribly inconsistent for the road teams today. sometimes that happens this time of year esp in college ball. Hopefully TCU and other take care of biz tonight or at least NBA/NHL. 2 close losses suck but we grind on and keep going.

Last good one I played big for tonight:

Tulsa-7 (Top play)

Well looks like you can stick a fork in TCU, Refs T'd up and ejected their Head Coach Jaime Dixon way too quick on a few Techs. they look shook.

Playing some dogs a little big smaller where I feel too many pts esp against a struggling FSU squad giving up a lot of points, and an inconsisten Iliinois team in a raucous enviroment against a team from Missouri with a lot of good athletes.

Missouri+7
Winthrop+9

8PM game I love is UL/Rice. UL has a Porous D ranked 201st with a slow offense ranked 150 overall, 129 in efficiency. They rank 243rd in pace and really struggle on the road while Rice has had some nice DD wins of late and at home tonight. Rice ranks 161st overall by Ken Pom, while offense is 171 and Defense better than UL's at 174. Believe these are 2 teams going in Opposite directions with Rice winning its last 3 and covering and Rice's Travis Evee should be simply too much for UL to contain tonight on Rice's home court.

Rice-4 (Top play)

Well, Tulsa just made 1 of 2 free throws at the end of the game to cost us the tie. Marist made both at the end of there game to give us the W. Go figure

yeah i was following, very frustrating with Tulsa, started out with a huge deficit and thought they'd pull it out then saw Marist almost give it way, what a sweat on that one. Hopefully we get Hawaii, and Colorado state (up 14-3 to start) a little easier and no sweat.

Some crazy results tonight, Rice really ticks me off letting a terrible road team Lousisiana score 90 on them. Gotta love college kids this time of year

So, UCLA missed a free throw with under a minute to cost us the W on the over. We salvaged a tie, at least, I guess. I was able to grab them at +10.5 during the game, which was nice!

Thoughts on late game - umass/port?

Thank you for reminding me, was watching this terrible Hawaii team not show up at home and getting embarrased. Not a big play but playing Umass tonight.

Umass-7-108

Much appreciated and continued success.

Hawaii just wasn't in it in the first half and it cost them.
20-0 run in the second half and they ran out of gas. Let's get UMass! Goodluck!

That you Pirate for a +2.55 unit day, with the Minutemen hit! I went 12-8 on the day!
