Indiana St/N. Illinois Under 133.5
Not sure where they came up with this number, but it is off by about 12 points. There is not much firepower on the floor, if any. With the departure of Marico Stinson, and Harry Marshall not being eligible for the 1st semester the Sycamores severely lack any consistent scoring. That was a huge blow looking for a team to possibly contend in the Valley. I expect points to be few and far between in this one. With no Stinson there is no player that has even averaged more than 10/ppg in their career on the floor. Patton will have the Huskies playing hard on the defensive end since that will be their only chances of being competitive. This team has no outside shooting, and not much of any scoring on the floor. The one thing Patton does insist from his players is that they play hard. I expect this game to be played in the 50's and will be shocked if it comes close to the set number.
Will be back with a few other total plays and a preview of the SU - Richmond game. BOL
Interestingly enough in the service plays forum Bob Akmens likes the over in this game but I don't really think he's done well as of late. I still like the under. The reasoning is logical. Neither team has a ton of scoring firepower and the game should dictate that.

My leans have been hitting at a very high rate so I will be posting some of them for 1 unit each. Both games I am looking at (Syracuse/Rich Over, and Clev St/Wash Under) are both moving in my direction so I am going to hold off for a better number.
**Note** All 1 unit plays, win or lose, will not be counted as a win or lose, just unit value.

Looks like the line (total) on the Indiana St/N. Illinois under (total) line is going up.. went from 133.5-134... i hope it keeps rising before i lock in my bet on UNDER, i like this play alot.
:money8:
btw, homedawg do you have any wagers on the syracuse game?
Do we have any shot left at this indiana state under you think? Need a LaSalle and FSU type first half for our second half.. that halftime buzzer beater was a killer
