Aloha Gang! I'll get right to the facts. Yesterdays I ****ed up! It was a terrible day and I must apologize for letting those who look to follow my selections down. I have enjoyed a hot streak with my selections from the start of the NFL Playoffs till this past Wednesday. Since then, the past three days haven't been following that successful trend for me, and I am thinking that this streak we enjoyed, has officially gone cold. The upcoming days results should shed more light on if this is true or not. Anyways, I just wanted to advise all of you who follows my selections, that they be careful with them. I understand that things like this happens, so I am not going to change anything that I was doing previously which helped us enjoy those wins, but I just thought that you would appreciate the heads up, regarding myself. Ok before it gets to late, here are my plays for today.
7 Unit Big East Revenge Game of the Month on:
Pitt -l (WINNER- by 7pts)
Ok, I am with the Panthers because of the following info below.
-Pitt is #1 in the Conf in Scoring Def holding its opponents to ONLY 56 ppg. At home this average decreases to 54 ppg and just 38% from the field.
-Pitt has the HCA. They are undefeated at home this year at 17-0, and 39-0 lifetime in this Arena. Longest Home Win streak in the Nation.
-Pitt has the Revenge factor on their side in this one , as they lost earlier this year at Uconn.
-Pitt is currently 2-1 ATS, 9-3 ATS last 3 seasons , in revenging a road loss vs opponent.
-Pitt is currently 3-1 ATS, 13-9 the last 3 seasons vs good offensive teams scoring 77+ pts a game. Also currently 2-0 ATS vs good Offensive teams scoring 77+ pts after 15 or more games.
-Pitt is averaging at home 71.1 ppg and 51.1% from the field, while they are holding opponents to just 54.6 ppg and 38% shooting from the field.
-UConn is currently 1-5 ATS in road games this year.
-UConn is currently 0-1 ATS vs good Defensive teams allowing less than 64 pts per game after 15 or more games.
-UConn is currently also 0-3 ATS after allowing 80pts or more.
-Pitt only lost by 3pts at UConn in earlier game between the two. In that game, Pitt was successful in holding UConn's leading scorer in Okafor from scoring his season average of 20 pt per a game. Pitt held him to just 11 pts and 7 rebounds in that game. Also encourage statistic to take out of their previous game, was the fact that Pitt and their stingy Defensive play held UConn at home to just 68pts, 14pts below their average at home. I can only expect that things could get worst for UConn playing at Pitt today. If Pitt could dictate the game at UConn, nothing tells me that they cant do it again but better at home today.
-This game reminds me of Yesterday's game between AP and Murray St, where AP had the #1 Scoring Def, and Murray St had the #1 Scoring Off, and traveling on the road. The better dominant Defensive team AP won outright and at home.
-Def, HCA, and Revenge as well as securing the 4th #1 seeding in the NCAA Tournament, is to much on the side of Pitt today.
4 Unit Plays on:
Kansas -2(LOSE)
Cincy +4.5 (LOSE-by 1,5pts ats DAM!)
-The Jayhawks style of Off will be to much for Nebraska to control today. Kansas likes to run it, and usually it starts with the long rebounds that Kansas uses to get it going. Neb who plays good defensive , will be caught in awkard situations because of this style of play by Kansas. HCA here doesnt seem to strong, as Neb lost here at home to Col and Oklahoma. Kansas already whipped Col in their own house, and Oklahoma doesnt compare talent wise to Kansas. Plus, Nebraska's current 11-2 home record is the result of facing and beating alot of nobodys at home this year. Neb is simply also catching Kansas in a bad spot, in regards to them finding any success Offensively today. Kansas will take out it frustrations from this weeks ASS Spanking they received at Oklahoma ST, Nebraska unfortunately is the first in line. Kansas current two game slide ends her at Nebraska.
-Wake this year is struggling against good Defensive teams. In fact, this year they are 1-6 ATS vs good Defensive teams allowing less than 64pts per game. They are also currently 0-2 ATS vs good Defensive teams allowing less than 64pts per game after playing 15 or more games. Sorry Wake, but Cincy is another Solid Defensive team allowing opponents an average 61 ppg. Not good News , I know and that is just One reason why I am grabbing the pts in this one.
4 Unit 5pt Teaser Plays on:
(Teaser #1)
Western Mich -2 & NC -2
(Teaser #2)
NC St +9.5 & NC -2
3 Unit Plays on:
Dayton -12(PUSH)
Iona +1
-Dayton is still one of the Conf's elite, and Duquane is simply not. Todays game follows a disappointing 14pt loss at the hands of St Joseph and it must not be sitting to good with this Flyers. Duquane does not possess the guns to match play with this angry Flyer club and that points to an ugly dd blowout by the Flyers at home.
-Marist is a very poor team and it showed in their inability to get a win at home against another poor team in Rider a couple of days ago. Iona is better than this Marist squad from top to bottom, and although they are just 2-10 on the road this year, they should be able to handily get another win here today. Marist is Offensively is simply terrible averaging just 61 ppg, 39% from the field, and ONLY 29% from behind the ARC. Iona already beat Marist by 20pts at home earlier this year, and nothing tells me that they cant do it again today. Iona is a 1pt underdog, so they need to just win this one SU, and that is more of a guarantee than expecting a Marist win.
***Ok Gang, this is my card for today. I hope you ALL find success today in your plays. Good to you and Aloha Co-Captain.
