Thanks to JK and and BetDSI for the chance at $1000

Here's to staring at the Pinny screen all day for a month!

 

[Jammer]

north alabama +17.5

Birdie giving out his $9 plays for free!

 

[Jammer]

I will be playing mostly college hoop sides and a few totals, unless something else really stands out.

Short hoops card today, may wait and take a look at tomorrow's card.

Also thinking about Washington in college football. Hoping the line gets to +4 (-110). Currently at -113. Doubt it gets there though.

Seems like everyone is on Bama today.

Pick #1- NCAAF- Washington +3.5 (-109)

Halftime score: Washington 21 Texas 21.

The Huskies will receive the second-half kickoff.

I see Texas is a 3-point favorite (+104) in the second half.

Mathematically impossible

73-51. Dead side.

 

[John Kelly]

1-1

 

[Jammer]

Play #3- NCAAB- Tulane -8 (-110) over Rice

Can't see Rice keeping up with Tulane.

Tulane averaging 94 at home on 53% shooting.

Rice has beaten 6 scrubs and been blown out in all of their losses.

In the words of Fezzik's tout jargon, "looking to bounce back"

 

[railbird]

hard to watch modern day basketball, bring back the 45 second shot clock and hand checking, make the slam dunk a technical foul

Great call by JAMMER.

2-1

Pick #4- NCAAB- Western Illinois -7 (-110)

 

[cheapseats]

68-61. No blood. WI kind of coasted through the 2nd half. 2-1-1.

Yup- fortunate to get the push. Mizzou missed 2 free throws, and Western Ill went 6-6 from the line late in the game.

 

[Jammer]

Waiting on Quinnipiac to go to -4 (-110) Don't think it gets there. Will look at tomorrow's big card a little later and probably post something.

Good thing it didn't. This is essentially a W in contest terms.

 

[Jammer]

Another crazy ending- QC goes up 6 with a dunk with 7 seconds left. Rider gets a layup at the buzzer to make the final 88-84!

 

[Jammer]

Pick #5- Morehead State -9 (-107) vs Tennessee State

Looking at High Point or McNeese St tomorrow- Pinny lines not out yet.

 

[Jammer]

Pick #6- McNeese St -12 (-110) vs Texas A&M Commerce

This was at 10.5 earlier, I looked away for a sec and it's at 12.

So lands on 11, I screwed myself. 12 and another tie doesn't hurt me as 17-11-2, get's the $$

 

[cheapseats]

Pick #5- Morehead State -9 (-107) vs Tennessee State

Looking at High Point or McNeese St tomorrow- Pinny lines not out yet.

78-68 by one for the W. 3-1-1.

 

[John Kelly]

Chop chop with JAMMER's pair of Saturday plays.

After six documented selections, JAMMER stands at 3-2-1.

Time to blast off.

 

[Jammer]

Needed that win- fortunate as Morehead goes 6-6 from the line to end the game. Not so fortunate picking McNeese over High Point as my other pick. On to tomorrow.

 

[Jammer]

Pick #7- NCAAB- Michigan St. -3 (-108)

 

[cheapseats]

88-74 & never a shot to cover.

3-3-1

 

[Jammer]

Terrible- they were playing great ball too, not tonight!
