Aloha Gang, well todays a Big Day as we have the Super Bowl to watch this evening. But before we get to that game, lets make alittle money on some good match ups for today. Yesterday, I suffered my first losing day of the week. But it was bound to happen, still the loss was minimal, and we already took a whole bunch of Units from the man during the week. Rec for the week is : 33W-21L-1P= +46 Units. Lets get some more in BB , before we capitalize on the SB. Lets Rock-N-Roll!
7 Unit Play on:
Niagara -1(BIG WINNER)(BY 6pts)
-Yes, I know this line seems alittle low, but I wont go into why I think its like this. No I am just going to say Thanks for the gift Vegas. Niagara already beat Iona by 18 at home, as they are simply the better talented team here. Niagara is a solid 6-3 on the road scoring an average of 80.4 ppg. Niagara also is 6-1 ATS vs Iona the last 3 seasons. I feel in this game, Iona will feel the loss of Sr F Steve Smith in this one. His 11 ppg will be definately be missed against this scoring machine of Niagara today. Easy win .
4 Unit Plays on:
Maryland -6(LOSE)
-Terps are 9-1 at home and 5-2 ATS in home games. They average scoring 82.5 ppg and shoot 48% from the field at home. NC State struggles on the road going 1-5 and only scoring a LOW 60.3 ppg avg. Maryland is 5-1 ATS vs NC St since 1997. 2-0 SU and ATS the last 3 seasons at Home. NC St is coming off a heartbreak loss to in-state rival NC and may still be burnt out and reeling from that hard fought, yet emotional and physical setback. This is not a good spot for them to recover from that loss. Maryland has the advantage of the home crowd to keep them motivated and keep them focused in this one. They are also coming off a loss but Big Adv for them playing this one at home. To Much Home Cookin in this One. Terps Roll Today!
3 Unit Play on:
Providence -6(buy .5pts)(LOSE), Oklahoma +4.5(WINNER)
-Providence tough at home, and their returning 5 starters and deep, deep bench is the reason why. They break out with a big win.
-I know Oklahoma is banged up and missing Booker, but I am not sold on this Nebraska team with such a solid home win record. If you look closely , that record was padded alot by nobodies played in their house. Oklahoma is much better than this cornhusker team and even with Booker out should not be getting this much points. I think the books want everyone to take Neb so I am on the other side. Nebraska gets exposed today, by a hurt and struggling Okie squad, whose pride will not let them go down today. Coach Sampson gets his team motivated and focused in this one, as I see him putting a challenge to them to show their heart and talent today. Go Sooners!
-Gl Gang and lets do some damage here first before we go into the SB. Best of Luck to All today, Aloha Co-Captain.
