double-dime bet 624 Kansas St. 4.0 (-110) BetUS vs 623 Kansas
Analysis: NCAAB: Kansas Jayhawks at Kansas State Wildcats - Kansas State +4 -110 | Unit Value: 2
Game Date: 1/30/2010
Note: I usually stay away from these high profile games and this is one of the biggest this year. But this is actually going to work in our fa~vor today as the Wildcats and their fans are going to be jumping as high as the roof tonight. While Kansas is clearly the best team, and perhaps the best team in this country, this is a tough spot for them. K State has the physicality to play with them and with this 4 point spot on their homecourt, I have to grab it. This should be a great game to watch and I want to be the one getting 4, not giving.

double-dime bet 588 UMass 3.0 (-110) BetUS vs 587 Charlotte
Analysis: NCAAB: NC Charlotte 49ers at Massachusetts Minutemen - UMa~ss +3 -110 | Unit Value: 2
Game Date: 1/30/2010
Note: Great spot for the Minutemen catching UNCC off a big win and while this team has struggled to do anything right on the road, they have been very competitive here. Shooting has been a problem for UMass this year and they are not as talented but they do hit the buckets better here and they do play a good brand of D. The Niners should be flat and I think they have a hard time getting up for this one..

triple-dime bet 537 St. Louis 7.5 (-110) BetUS vs 538 Richmond
Analysis: NCAAB: Saint Louis Billikens at Richmond Spiders - St Louis +7.5 (Best Bet) -110 | Unit Value: 3
Game Date: 1/30/2010
Note: This line is starting to show movement at some of the sharper books and despite more bets being placed on the Spiders, it is moving downward. I don't know if this trend will continue and I do care if it does. I like this number right now very much. These two teams are moving in different directions here late in the season and our team is moving forward. They could have easily covered 4 straight but an OT loss by 5 at GW on a 5 spot stopped their streak. Both teams have demonstrated very good D this year but while the Billikens continue to play well in that department, the Spiders have slipped their efforts over the last 5 contests. This is more than likely going to be a very low scoring affair and these points are large for that alone. Stl beat Richmond by 5 on their homecourt a couple of weeks ago and they have reeked havoc with this team a lot, winning the last 4 of 5 outright, and everytime in the Dog Role. Depending upon when you are reading this, you might have to settle for +7. That will be fine. I don't know if St Louis can pull the outright here today, but I do think the~y give it one Hell of a Shot, and they can do that with their strong bench which will give them the advantage in the second half.
