hno:
exactly... clemson is too good to let vatech put up 100 dude. They will make a run at this for sure and at least make it close. I might consider making the same wager. I've done plenty of wagers like this and if you got a goo team especially thats ranked down big at half, take em for the 2nd half and they almost always cover

SMOOTH44 / WSP
***KNOCKOUT PUNCH OF THE DAY***
RUTGERS ML +320
Pre-game Comment: In my opinion this is a clear example of over-valuing a bad team on the basis of one perceived "great win". The Hall upset Georgetown their last time out but as we are learning, after their loss again last night, the Hoyas are just an average team. The hardcore reality is the Hall, at 1-6 in conference play, is only 1 game better than Rutgers on paper, who sits at 0-7 in the conference. This is an in-state rival as these schools are only 20-30 minutes apart depending on traffic. So forget about records this one is all about bragging rights for New Jersey and the opportunity to attract the attention of their respective recruits. I expect this one to stay close throughout and for Rutgers to get the cover and SU win!

CLEMSON ML -110
Pre-game Comment: This is simple for me! Va Tech is playing great of late winning 5 straight while Clemson has struggled losing 2 of their L3. However, this line opens as virtually a pick - WHY? Simple! 5 of the L6 meetings have been decided by 2 or fewer points so history was factored into this line. But history is just that - history and I don't expect it to repeat itself tonight! Look for Clemson to dominate the boards and for VT to come crashing back to earth! I expect Booker to control the pace and for Clemson's balance to be too much for Hokies in the end.

ORLANDO -4
Pre-game Comment: Tonight we have a similar line and scenario as when the Magic hosted Boston a few weeks ago and lost. We backed the Magic in that one and walked away disappointed, however, we expect a much better result tonight. The Cavs are just 2-5 ATS when coming off a 5-9 point win including a perfect 0-2 on the road. Meanwhile, the magic are a perfect 9-0 ATS after scoring more than 110 points!

WASHINGTON ML -110
Pre-game Comment: It seems like the entire world is on Zona here but I don't understand why! I realize Arizona's Big 3 can compete with the best but I believe it will be Washington's balance and guard speed that will be the difference in this one. Look for the game to stay close with the Huskies pulling away down the stretch.
(NBA) 10:30PM EST
PHOENIX ML -125
Pre-game Comment: Rarely, if ever, will you see me lay the extra juice to play SU. However, call me a little gun shy after Toronto ruined my perfect night last night! The Suns come in on 2 days rest and are at their best offensively in this spot and should be ready to run the Spurs into the ground as a result. The Spurs are a perfect 0-2 ATS when playing a team on 2 days rest while they are on just one days rest. The Spurs are also a dismal 1-9 ATS after giving up 100 or more points! Look for the Suns to protect home court tonight!
