jeff bentonq
5-5 for the week....yesterday lost his biggest play of the college season 60 dime loser on new mexico.....
ONE THING THAT AMAZES ME WITH JEFF BENTON AND SOME OF THE OTHER HANDICAPPERS....IN THEIR ANALYSIS, THEY STATE SUCH IN SUCH A TEAM IS ON A 14-3 ats COVER OR A 10-2 ATS COVER.....HOWEVER, DURING THAT RUN THEY WOULD NEVER BE ON THAT TEAM AS A SELECTION...HMMMM, WITH ALL THE INFORMATION THEY HAVE (BULLSHIT) DON'T YA THINK JUST ONCE JUST ONE TIME THEY WOULD HAVE SELECTED THIS TEAM THAT IS ON SUCH AN INCREDIBLE ATS SPREAD COVER????? nope rarely ever...so when i see this on his analysis as i did yesterday with his new mexico pick, i selected BYU and won.....
Jeff Benton Saturday's Action
30 Dime college basketball seleation on Michigan plus the points vs. Ohio State in the Big Ten Tournament semifcinals. At the time I relecsed this play at nearly 4 a.m. Eastern time, there were no odds posted on this game (or any of Saturday’s contests). However, I expect to see the number come in at around 7½ to 8.
Michigan continued its impressive late-season surge yesterday, battling back from a 14-point second-half deficit to dump Illinois 60-55 as a three-point underdog (holding the Illini to just one field goal over the last 5+ minutes). Not only have the Wolverines won three in a row, seven of nine and eight of 11, but very quietly they’ve been the most profitable team in the country over the past six weeks, cashing in 11 of their last 12 games. That includes eight consecative spread-covers from the underdog role!
Speaking of cashing tickets, that’s all Michigan has done the last two years when facing hated Ohio State, going 5-for-5 vs. the pointspread against the Buckeyes. That includes two spread-covers this year and one in the opening round of last year’s Big Ten Tournament (in that latter contest, Michigan had Ohio State beaten 68-66 until Buckeyes star Evan Turner launched a shot from just past half court and drained it to steal a 69-68 victory).
Ohio State – which needed overtime to get past Northwestern yesterday 67-61, falling way short as a 12-point underdog – has been burning bettors the postseacson the last couple years, going 2-6 ATS in both the conference and Big Dance tournaments. Additionally, the Buckeyes have failed to bring home the money in five of their last seven at neutral sites and seven of 10 when coming off an ATS loss. Meanwhile, Michigan’s 11-1 ATS run includes nine straight covers versus teams with a winning record.
Bottom line: Teams like Michigan and Northwestern have figured out how to frustrate Ohio State with a slow, methodical offense and a matchup zone defense (in four games against those teams this year, the Buckeyes have averaged just 63.8 ppg, and that includes yesterday’s overtime game over Northwestern when Ohio State had just 52 points after regulation). Look for the same thing to happen in this one as the Wolverines keep this one tight throhghout and cash for the sixth straight time against their bitter rivals.
