731 Cal State (Peter) Northridge -1

not crazy about the fact this line went from +1 to -1 but to me +/-1 is a worthless number so not as much impact as if the line went from 2 to 3 or vice versa (i have +1 in my pocket but since i am posting when the line is -1 that is my public play). i don't like using the "they gotta win this one" angle but in the case CSUPN "they gotta win this one"! right now CSUPN is 1 game up on Long Beach in the race for the #1 spot - and more importantly - a GUARANTEED post-season spot should they fail to win the BWT next week. for a school like CSUPN this is HUGE! they are 10-4 and LB is 9-5. CSUPN wins the tiebreaker so with a win here and a LB loss in either of its final 2 games CSUPN would win the Big Worst. LB plays its season finale @ UCSB - and they will lose that one after beating SLO thursday. Davis is tough at home and we never know what we are going to get with CSUPN but in this case i think CSUPN wants to get THIS one so a loss to Pacific on Saturday won't cost them the #1 seed something they so badly want. this one sure looks like it will be a close one but when the final whistle blows i think the Pornadors will cum out on top (so many double meanings here it isn't funny) and cash this ticket

731 CSUPN -1


i RARELY play totals - esepcially in CBB but will here

743/744 Illinois/Joe Pa U OVER 117.5: we all recall the last time these 2 met? a 38-33 game that set the game back some 40+ years or more. well i think as much crap as these 2 teams took and will take for this one they are going to do all they can to make sure that when people talk about THIS one they don't say what a stinko it was. both teams average about 65 PPG meaning about 130-ish although in Big 11 play it is not close to that. i just think both teams will step up the tempo and play a much more open game for fear of the game being what it was last time. this one will be on ESPN and the score of their last game will be mentioned a lot and i just think this motivates the teams to step up the tempo some

Best of luck winky and thanks for the write up. I remember waking up the next morning looking at that score of 38-33 and swore it had to be wrong. It wasnt........

Re: 2 fer Thursday

Good luck Winky. Any thoughts on LBSU tonight at Cal Poly? Im on the Beach.

leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeean to LB but i don't trust them and now that SLO is the odd team OUT and won't be headed to Anaheim next week for the tourney - Thursday and Saturday are "their super bowl" and they are coming to play because there is nothing to play for after saturday

if the number gets to -2 i might start to consider it but something tells me this one has "Buzzer beater" written all over it
 
Re: 2 fer Thursday

Yeah, I was thinking that Cal Poly might throw everything into the final home game and sort of tank this one like the rest of the year. Hopefully they dont find any magic tonight. I got LB -2 so with them trying to hold on to an outside shot at first (depending on the outcome of your Northridge play) Im thinking LB has an emotional as well as talent edge here. Thanks for the thoughts, get em tonight man. :thumbsup

Re: 2 fer Thursday

I was wondering what you might think of that one. Will definitly circle that game. Thanks WD.

i see UCSB coming no higher than about 4 and at that price it will be tough to pass up laying the chalk

Pacific beats CSUN
SLO beats Riverside
Fullerton beats Irvine

now - what happens ATS...............?????
