Kojak's Thursday College Hoops (Wed 12-3-1)

[Kojak]

Coming off of a great day to hopefully start up another stretch of solid winning. Similar to Wednesday, I see a lot of value in Thursday's card as well.

Wake Forest -6 - Demon Decons are reeling and what better way to get back on track but a trip to last place Clemson. I expect a focused and motivated Wake Forest team to show up.(win)

Denver -3 - This team is for real in the Sunbelt. I look for a big home win here against Western Kentucky.(loss)

Idaho +10 - This team has been playing extremely well of late and I will ride the hot hand here with the generous 10 vs Pacific.(win)

Oregon +2 - Ducks can't afford loss here with trying to solidify 3rd in Pac 10 which will probably get tournament bid.(loss)

Pepperdine -14 - Wave should run SD out of the gym.(win)

Pepperdine/San Diego over 160 - I expect a lot of offense and no defense in this one.(win)

San Francisco +13 - Gonzaga has been playing at a very high level and at some point there has to be a let down. SF is one of the tougher places to play in the conference so I will go out on a limb and predict a close game in this one.(loss)

Murray St. -5.5 - Murray St. should be favored in this one by more than posted line. I see lots of value in this one against Tenn Tech.(win)

CS Sacramento +9.5 - Sac has enough on both sides of the court to keep this one closer than the spread.(loss)

South Alabama +7 - In a rivalry game, I'll take the home team especially getting the points. So. Alabama is coming off of tough road stretch and should play a strong game now that they are back home.(win)

Like I said, I like 10 vs 16 last night. May add a few more tomorrow. best of luck.

hanson bros,

Kojak great job yesterday! I like the Denver pick, I agree very solid team. What are you going to throw on them, just curious? Play of the month must=serious cash. One game that jumped out at me-Washington, it's definately a 5* for me. Solid home team with the low number against the Ducks I like it! Check it out! Love it when games jump out at me! Like your plays good luck to you!

 

[Kojak]

Kapusta,

Thanks for the kind words. I am looking at Denver as a dime play. In terms of Washington, I guess we differ there. I like Oregon in this one. Both teams play a similar style but I think Luke and co find a way to get the job done. Best of luck.

Kodiak, I might only have 3 posts because I don't cap much CBB. I enjoy winning and I have been winning with both of you guys picks! I respect most of the cappers here and I appriciate all of the work U all do! I want to thank U all and keep it up, PLEASE!! Blue Roses

 

[MrGreen]

Another big card. You kicked ass last night. Keep it up!!

 

[Kojak]

Mr. Green,

Best of luck to you tonight as well. Keep up the solid winners!

After seeing the exposer thread, I went back as far as the old pages would allow to pull my record to help out people. I had stopped keeping ytd records back in late December due to a couple of bad apples. Until the pages are regenerated, I won't have a complete ytd record for me. All I know is before late December I had a solid winning record ytd. I do not have the record between late December and up to Jan. 29. But I can tell you my ytd record since Jan 29 is 65-42-3. I will go back and pick up the rest of the games once pages have been regenerated. I hope this helps.

Adding...

Nevada -12 (win)

Louisville -3 (loss)

The pages finally regenerated so I was able to go all the way back to the start of the season to get my overall record posted for college hoops for this year. ytd 221-185-9. I don't know if anyone cares but I thought it was about time to get back to ytd.

Like the Cards tonight K...but I'm Zig-Zagging it and laying the lumber at San Fran.

Good luck tonight!

I was thinking of playing Samford to but havent yet found enough to make me confortable. Also had a strong system play with UCLA, but alittle spooky still. GL and Aloha CC.

 

[Kojak]

vegaswahoo,

Great job on pod. Thanks for comment and best of luck.

 

[Kojak]

sportsbet,

Best of luck tonight. You may be right on Gonzaga but I really think they are due for a subpar game. Best of luck.
