Did you end up ever putting up your picks? I can't seem to find them. Just for future reference, lemme know where I should be looking next time. Sorry I couldn't find them this time.
Anyway, tomorrow's the first Ivy League Friday of the year, so I'll be around to help us nail those games. Feel free to look at all four of those, since that's where I'll be focusing my attention, as well. Don't hesitate to email me at the email in the post below during the day to discuss those games; otherwise, I'll get back to you in the evening. Take care.

I've got two plays tonight, VCU (smaller play) and Air Force (bigger play). Writeups are up on Pick n Roll. Although you've pretty much seen them already lol. GL to both of us on Air Force, and I'm rooting hard for you on W. Mich.
And for future reference, I get home from work every day around 5:30 or so, and I have no access to this site from work, so I won't be able to respond until then. But I'll usually check what's going on here right when I get home, so feel free to keep shooting games my way. If you need me during the day, feel free to email me at Dmon826@gmail.com whenever (just know I won't be able to do much research from work). Anyway, good luck again, and take care, Kiwi.

To summarize:
-I like your Air Force play, and think you've got exactly the right reasons for liking it.
-I hate your Northeastern play, and would strongly lean the other way.
-I'm pretty neutral on the other two, so go with your gut and what you know.
I hope this was somewhat helpful, let me know what you end up doing, and good luck tonight!

Eastern Mich +13.5: I'm gonna defer to you on this one. I know very little about either of these teams, and when I cap it, all I have to go by is the numbers (since I don't have much other info on either). And by the numbers, the line is about dead on. Sure, Kent St is mediocre and doesn't deserve to be a double-digit favorite very often, but Eastern Mich is terrible. If you have any reason to suspect they'll show up tonight, I support your bet. But not knowing anything about them, I could just as easily see them laying an egg, so I'm gonna lay off without any more info.

Northeastern +6.5: If Air Force was the play I liked the most out of your 4, this is the one I like the least. In fact, I have a strong lean the other way. First, I think VCU is absolutely better enough than Northeastern to justify being 3 points better + 3 for homecourt. Secondly, their homecourt advantage is huuuge, as they have a great crowd that knows tonight is a battle for league supremacy. Third, I don't think Northeastern's mediocre ballhandlers are a good matchup for the VCU pressure pressure pressure. There's only so much you can slow down the game when the other team is picking you up for court, and I don't think Northeastern will be able to play the game the way they want to. And all this is coming from someone who appreciates Northeastern and knows what they can do, having just won a nice bet on them in their last game vs ODU. Overall, I just see this as a statement game for VCU, and see them getting out and winning this game by 12-15.

Air Force +8: On one hand, I completely agree with your assessment, and to add to it, we know from past experience that Wyoming will allow itself to get slown down by a team like this, even on its home court. See its game vs Denver earlier this year for the evidence (interestingly enough, Denver's current coach, Joe Scott, was the one who brought this slow, Princeton-style offense to Air Force in the first place a few years ago). And that game was close all the way (back and forth, basically tied, until Wyoming pulled away with 7 mins to go). In general, I have to agree with you.
My one serious concern is Air Force's inability to score. I wouldn't be surprised to see this end something like 60-48 Wyoming or something, simply because Air Force can't put the ball in the basket enough. And while Wyoming hasn't been good on D lately, the Air Force style is so unique it's hard to even compare.
That said, overall, this is probably my favorite pick out of all of yours.

Western Mich +1: I like the fact that you seem to be going against the public perception here, so you must be seeing something everyone else isn't. The problem I'm having is that I don't see it either. I don't think you're right in saying that W. Mich is as hot as Buffalo, as their 4 recent wins have come against some of the worst teams in all of D1, whereas Buffalo played and beaten the best the MAC has to offer in their streak. Could you help me out by filling me in on why you think W. Mich is better than its stats would indicate, or why they'll play up tonight? Again, I'm not on the other side per se, but just can't find a reason to like W. Mich, but I'm probably just missing something. Help?

I just got home and saw your posts. Typing up responses now. I'll do the earlier games first. I'll have the first one up in a few...

Yeah, I stuck with my play, but took a little bit off the bet, and just put more on Northern Iowa instead. So it all evened out lol. No worries. I've got another pick tonight (that I don't like as much as either of yesterday's, but enough to put a little on), so feel free to take a look if you have time. Keep up the good work, and let's keep winning together!
