775 George Washington3.5(-112) Greek vs 776 San Diego St. triple-dime bet
Analysis:GW had a 14 point lead over Phil Martelli and St. Joe's in a second round game of the A-10 Tournament. The Colonials couldn't sustain their hot shooting touch in the second half and lost that game and their opportunity to go to the Big Dance instead of the Hawks.
HC Mike Lonergan got George Washington refocused and the Colonials have ousted Hofstra, Monmouth and Florida to forge into NYC and Madison Square Garden to play San Diego State.
Aztecs come out of a weak ass Mountain West Conference and played all 3 games in the NIT at home. GW's wins were at home vs. Hofstra & Florida but the i “mpressive win was at Monmouth by 17.
I think GW wins the game but I bought it up to 4.......Cavanaugh & Larsen give the Colonials size at 6'9 and 6'10 and Patricio Garino and Joe McDonald can both shoot it especially Garino at 43% from behind the arc. I respect Steve Fischer and the Aztecs but this is a cross country trip and outside of Trey Kell & Jeremy Hemsley SDSU does not have shooters although Matt Shrigley will get in off the bench and is dangerous when left open. All in all, I made this a pick'em game so I'll take GW and the points.
