Cuse @ Marquette Under 61 1H (-110)

Seton Hall +2.5 1H (-110)

The Pirates have been playing with a lot of energy lately, problem is they aren't very good, and they are banged up as a team. In the first half of games they are competitive, as you can see versus UCONN at home they lead by 1 pt at the break only to lose by 11 pts. Also, at home versus the Cuse recently they only trailed by 6 at the break, then at home versus Marquette the other day they were ties at the break 27-27, then got mauled in the 2H and lost the game by 21. Nova are slow starters as well, they seem to enforce their defense prowess in the 2H of games, but in the 1H they are usually pretty tightly played games. Gonna roll with the Hall in the 1H and prob make a 2H play on Nova to win the game.

Lock- Villinova -4.5

when the total is 130 to 139.5:   11-1
in road games lined:  8-2
when playing against a team with a losing record: 5-1 

Nova has been playin really good ball as of late not that seton hall hasnt but they will not be able to compete with a better team that is also playin better ball. Nova to me even tho they are on the road where they have beaten s florida, uconn, and depaul these are all good teams means they can win this game too. Nova will be primed and ready to take out seton hall even if nova starts out slow(which I hope they do then I will be betting them 2H) they will make the come back in the 2H!! This one will not be as close as some may think when its all over. Nova 74-62 Nova by 12PTS!

For those betting on kstate- crowd will be real weak due to weather and opponent and Jordan henriquez will not be playing for what it is worth, I'd stay off kstate- especially for the whole game- our scrub guys are terrible if we get up huge

Over 5½ (-130)
Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Philadelphia Flyers

Lock Syracuse -1.5

Syracuse should be motivated to snap marquette's home win streak in a Big East Big Monday showdown. Marquette is a scrappy well-coached crew that has overachieved this season but how are they going to score tonight? They do not shoot well from the outside and Cuse's 2-3 zone will make it difficult for marquette to score inside. I usually play the under in these games but I am a little afraid that Cuse will try to score in transition to avoid the half-court setting. 

I have been fading marquette lately and will continue tonight. Buzz Williams is a great coach but i just think he is facing a difficult task tonight.

My card goes as follows

Syracuse over 130.5

Blackhawks -1.5

Flyers over 5.5

Kings ml

Good luck

I agree with the over 5 1/2 in the Flyers/Leafs game

dont see how this cuse/marq game covers over 130...i feel like they want me to play the under though...Don't see either team hitting 70 unless OT...game is in low 60s at most, is it a trap that high?

With Hartnell back in the line up...and Bryz' not being forced to play back to back games again...the team will look good tonight. I suspect a 4-2 win over the Maple Leafs tonight. Matt Read is still missed by this team...but he's obviously not the whole team.

The maple leafs are a magical 11-8 this season...somehow...some way..I dont suspect that winning percentage to hold up until the end of the season. Also with the flyers finally being in the position to be .500 for the first time this season...they will bring their A game and treat it like the playoffs. Lavi is gonna be fired up as well..you'll see him screaming throughout this one.

Flyers are my pick tonight.

Also the Card goes as followed.

Im not the biggest trends guy and have not always had the best luck betting 1st or 2nd halves but tonight if Nova doesnt cover that 3 in the 1st half I might pound the 2nd half!




Nova (1H) 15-5 ATS L20. Lost 4 of L6 1H ATS. Those 4 games they are outscoring opponent in 2H by AVG 13pts & covered all 4 ATS.  

I just caught up on the weekend's LOCK tracking, and despite a negative contribution from me on Saturday, the thread is continuing its steady, positive effort, with a 11-6-1 record on Saturday and a 7-4 record on Sunday.  18-10-1 for two days is good work, in my opinion.  As long as the numbers are solidly over .500, then I would call this endeavor a success.  We have had some great runs on the thread here in the past 7 years, but I don't think we have ever had such a high percentage of over .500 days.  I think it is a testament to people beng very selective and heavily considering every LOCK they post.  Good job all around everyone.

Let's keep it going!

Points in each ten minutes of the Stanford game 59 being the last 10 minutes with all the bs free throws
