Hoops Picks For 3/10


Not a too terrible start on the old March Madness gambling front, as even though yesterday afternoon wasn't so hot (UConn saved my ass), the evening wave brought redemption with a 4 team teaser that came through. I was sitting at Wing Joint with a dude named Woof and he was very supportive of my bet hitting. We sweated out all 4 games (Marshall -4 &1/2, Long Island -1/2, Marquette +6, & SMU +2), but it was an exciting way to pass a Wednesday night.


Today's action - ACC: UVA and the points, BC should crush Wake again, NCSU and the 6 (the Terps are playing like corpses). Big East: Uconn +5 &1/2. Syracuse -2 &1/2 is my 3rd top choice for the afternoon, late game lines are not up yet. Big 12: K State -6 is my top choice for the day, they are rolling now. Late game lines aren't up, but take the over in Mizzu/Tex A&M. CUSA: no lines are up - baffling. SEC: pass on the whole card today. Big 10: I'm tempted to take IU and the points, but it's only 4. Pac 10: Cal +3 is my 2nd top choice for the afternoon, in the late game take Wash St +6 - they've already beaten the Huskies twice this year. Mountain West: Maybe look at UNLV to roll against AF.


The picture above was taken last night at Wing Joint. From left we have Tess, Dave, TBFH, and Alex. Of note is that Dave's flavor saver is in full effect. Also of note is that I need a haircut, badly.

Thank you, but an $8 haircut scares me a bit...

Yeah, those games were pretty interesting.

BTW, WVU will NOT, repeat NOT, job to Clemson on Thursday. (I know it's the classic 5 v 12 matchup, but it's not that one where the upset is going to happen!) -- can't have an ACC team which shouldn't have gotten in beating us.

I'm headed to the casino for the weekend - hope it goes well.
