See above for record...here's what I got for College hoops tonight:
Big XII Reg Play: Gonzaga @ Okie State
I have to go against the mighty Big XII and roll with the Bulldogs to cover the 10 points. After watching the Zags get a SU and ATS win against a top 10 team, I can't see them folding the tents if they get down to a talented Okie STate team. There are a lot of factors to consider in this game. Can Lucas and the inside play of the Cowboys slow down the Zags run and gun game? I don't think so. The Zags used to live and die by the three. They now have a great inside game and the perennial outside shooting. Can they play D against the mighty Pokes of Stillwater? I think they play just enough to cover the number.
PLAY on the ZAGS @ +10 (Line from BetCris)
Big XII GOW:
Kstate over Rutgers - 6 1/2. I had K State posted as my GOW against Wyoming and they didn't disappoint. I keep tellin you guys about Jeremiah Massey, the Bad Boy of the Kansas plains. He's brought a swagger and attitude to this undefeated (8-0) K State Wildcat team. K STate has a penchant for slow starts and strong finishes. I looked at Rutger's team and matchups this year and they haven't impressed me at all. They lost by 12 @ home against a decent but not great Wisconsin team and beat the Farleigh Dickinson's of this world. K STate on the other hand has already beaten two teams from last year's NCAA tourney and they look to continue their momentum in the unfriendly confines of Bramlage Coliesum. THe kids will be going crazy in Aggieville tonight as they see their Wildcats lay it to the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers.
PLAY ON K STATE AS my 5'th Big XII GOW - 6 1/2
Mo Valley Reg. Play:
Bradley at Creighton
Man, this game tugs at my heart. I love the Creighton Blue Jays but am sad to say that they are an NIT team this year. Point Guard Nate Funk is the man, but there isn't much behind him offensively on this team as evidenced by the Evansville upset the other day. (I've said all year UNI, Evansville, Wichita State are the teams to beat in conference, and maybe SIU). Bradley has scorched the nets with a solid 8-1 start including wins over some decent schools. With the way Creighton and Bradley are playing, this game is a tough one to call. I'm rollin with the Creighton Blue Jays to cover the 4 and get back on track in conference tonight in Omaha.
Play on Creighton -4 @ home against the Bradley Braves.
Good luck whatever your on, I'll be back with NBA and college total play later this afternoon.
BIG XII GOY is coming for January 1'st. Take care and slam it.
