Don't let the prospect status fool you! I am a seasoned veteran in this business and I am here to give you winners. I just posted my first thread on this site yesterday and I gave you a winner on the Orlando Magic. I am back today with another winner in College Basketball. Another winner where the general public will go the other way and they will lose.
The matchup I have my eyes on is in the BYU Cougars @ Portland Pilots. The line came out at 11.5 and has gone up to 13. This is completely due to the fact that BYU just blew out Gonzaga on national tv on thursday night. This is a perfect let down game for BYU. Playing on the shortest rest you can have in college basketball they travel to play a Portland team that has covered there last four games. This will be BYU's first trip to Portland after joining the WCC. They rarely see a road atmosphere like they will tonight. Playing in a small sold out gym where the crowd feels like it is right on top you will provide a definite home court advantage. BYU is 2-5 ats on the road and havent covered 3 of there last 5 games.
I also like the matchups Portland is going to have with their big men. Portland has a 6-11 center by the name of Vander Mars That is going to provide problems for Noah Hartstock and Brandon Davies. I expect a huge effort out of Portland tonight against a BYU team that is going to look a little sluggish. BYU will be challenged and will utlimately pull out a close one. BYU 70 Portland 64
PORTLAND +13
