Post Wednesday Hoops Chatter

Haven't started one of these in awhile - lets get some good discussion going.

I had a 2-1 night last night, but not finding alot that jumps out at me so far today - what do you like? why?

Sell me on your play

I really like Dayton -7 @ home vs Illinois St. According to Pomeroy, Dayton is ranked higher (44-91), better conference and their non-conf SOS is better, ranked 63-327. Dayton by 10+. I think IL ST lost a player to a sexual assault investigation, too, didn't they?

Boston U +7.5 @ OR St. Ranked about the same 125-126. Obviously the Pac-10 is better than the American East but BU's non-conf schedule is ranked 81-252. BU is 8-8 on the road where OR St is 10-7. I like the points here.

RI -4.5 @ home vs Northwestern. RI 73-78 in rankings. A-10 8th, Big 10 4th. Non-conf SOS RI has the edge 62-314. RI 14-5 @ home, Northwestern 2-9. RI by 8+.

Just my humble opinions, if I'm way off, please let me know!!!

4-0 last night, 8-3 tonight (should Boston U hang on to their 28 pt lead w/ 6 to go ). Please, please, please Lord keep it going.

I don't post many plays at all but I'll be the 1st to admit...I suck! Newbie, lost my ass this year, but am doing my damndest to figure it out!

I'll try and post throughout March Madness. Between my 2 boys wrestling and hoops, my computer time will be limited.

Thanks for the rewards upinya, mucho thankful.
