Tuesday's Don't Make Sense Play

first the re-cap. Lost with West Virginia last night, bringing me to an overall record of 6-4 for my last 10, and 4-2 for the "don't make sense" plays. Pretty sure that dogs, for whatever reason, don't fit the "DMS" mode, so I won't be playing them as a "don't make sense" play.

For Tuesday, I see that Wichita State (RPI 176), who is 11-13 on the year (5-8 in the Missouri Valley), and who is coming off a loss to Evansville, is a 6 point favorite over Missouri State. Missouri State is 10-14 (RPI 174) and is 3-10 in the Missouri Valley conference, but they just beat Evansville on 2/4, and on 1/14, they spanked Wichita State by 13 points. Not saying that Wichita shouldn't be favored here, but by 6 points ??? You'd have to be an idiot to bet Wichita State here, right ??

Wrong !! The Shockers are gonna win this one by double digits. Here's why. Other than beating a weak C. Michigan team on 11/14, Missouri State has not won on the road this year. They are 3-6 ATS away and 3-9 ATS against conference opponents. They shoot a field goal percentage of LESS THAN 40% !! Since 1997, Wichita State is 16-9 ATS against Missouri State. These two teams look evenly matched on paper, but the Shockers are gonna blast Missouri State tonight.

Tuesday's "don't make sense" play is Wichita State -6.

Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

not sure what you mean. Wichita State is my "DMS" play for today, although it is not my only play for tonight.

Keith

As someone who follows the MVC pretty closely, I think this line DOES make sense. I asked three friends to "guess the line," and they guessed: Wichita St. by 7, Wichita St. by 4.5, and Wichita St. by 6.5.
