Thanks,Bill
1*Oregon-3(-20)
This will be played in Charleston so it will be more of a home game for Marshall.Nevertheless,I still like the Ducks.Both of these teams are incorporating some new players this year.Hairston is an impact freshman for Oregon and Brooks will be the best player on the court.The Ducks will also enjoy a significant height advantage so look for them to control the boards.

VT are certainly not world beaters,but Greenberg seems to have them headed in the right direction.Sailes is out,but they should have enough left to handle a Tribe team that will be hard pressed to match last year's 7-21 mark.W&M is coming off a 13 point loss to Campbell, a team that is picked last in the Atlantic Sun conference.

1*Washington State-3.5(-20)
Idaho lost three starters from last year and are struggling as a result.They have extremely sloppy with the basketball,averaging 18 turnovers a game.That does not bode well for a team facing the deliberate and disciplined Cougars.
1*Iowa-8
I know these teams have played close games in this series the past few years,but Iowa has not lost in this series since 1978.Judging from their performance in Maui,this Hawkeye edition looks to be for real.The heat is on Alford this year-look for them to pull away here.
1*USC-6
I know USC were destroyed by USC and they have been on the road for a long time,but LaSalle will the A-10 whipping boy this year.After last year's rape scandal,La Salle has added 3 walkons from the student body just to be able to scrimmage.They are essentially a one man show and even a horribly coached and inconsistent USC team should win here easily.
Seriously considering upgrading one or more of the above plays.Also looking hard at Xavier,ASU,CSU, and UCLA and will add to this card later.
