A dreadful day yesterday means the return of comments today. Comments may become more frequent as we creep closer and closer to Selection Sunday (it's still so far away D:)
Richmond +2 @ La Salle. The team who just won at VCU is getting points here? Surely a trap but I can't help but fall in to it as I've liked the Spiders all year.
0-0-1
Michigan +2 v. Iowa. If the Hawkeyes lose that's gonna make the middle of the S-curve for tomorrow's bracket even more of a mess so of course that's happening.
0-1
Auburn +11 @ LSU. Bruce Pearl's kids seem to be improving and I'm not taking LSU to blow out anyone right now.
1-1
Drexel +3.5 @ Elon. Damion Lee, he's so hot right now. Yeah Zoolander was on this morning.
2-1
Marshall -4.5 v. Rice. Houston to West Virginia is quite a hike.
3-1
Houston +6.5 v. Tulsa. Just thinking this will be close, though every Tulsa game has been close lately. This may be the night they get tagged, believe it or not.
3-2
William & Mary -5.5 @ Charleston. Tribe are really starting to emerge from the CAA. Now watch them lose here.
3-3
Florida International -3 v. Texas San Antonio. Panthers are one of the few teams who have been good to me lately.
3-4
Georgia State -4 @ Georgia Southern. The preseason favorite in the Sun Belt versus the current leaders. I think the upperclassmen heavy Panthers are about to make a push.
3-5
Western Kentucky -10 v. North Texas. Love the Toppers at home, especially against cannon fodder like UNT.
3-6
Green Bay -14 v. Milwaukee. Phoenix had no problem in Milwaukee and they shouldn't have one here.
3-7
Southern Miss +13.5 @ Middle Tennessee State. Just a point or two too high.
4-7
UTEP -8 @ Florida Atlantic. Should be straightforward for the Miners.
4-8
UL Lafayette -11.5 v. Appalachian State. Lafayette has a strong enough offense to feel confident taking them against double digit spreads. Can't say that about a lot of teams these days.
5-8
Arkansas Little Rock -3 v. UL Monroe. I don't think I've gotten a single ULAR game right when I've taken them. First time for everything, right?
5-9
Arkansas State -4.5 v. Troy. Picking against Troy is a hell of a drug.
5-10
UCLA +7 @ Stanford. Stanford losing would really screw up the middle of that S-curve as well. I think the Bruins are on the right track and this could be a fantastic game. Hopefully it's half as good as the meeting in Westwood.
6-10
SMU -6.5 v. Cincinnati. Has anyone figured out how Cincy lost at East Carolina at the weekend?
6-11
Louisiana Tech -4.5 @ UAB. Seems generous.
6-12
San Francisco -4 v. Portland. Pilots are maybe the biggest disappointment in the WCC.
6-13
San Diego -3 @ Loyola Marymount. Other than the perpetually disappointing Lions, of course. Some day somebody's gonna bring back the Paul Westhead days. I just hope I'm alive to see that day.
6-14
Cal Poly -6 v. Hawaii. Alan Williams Project is easily the most disappointing Big West side but the Bows are a close second.
6-15
UC Davis +9 @ UC Irvine. Crazy line.
7-15
Long Beach State -12 v. UC Riverside. The Beach is ripping through the Big West right now.
7-16
CS Northridge +4.5 @ CS Fullerton. Both have fallen on hard times.
7-17
Washington State +7.5 @ Oregon State. Feels like a couple points too many.
8-17
BYU -2.5 @ Pepperdine. Revenge game after the embarrassing home loss at the Marriott.
8-18
Gonzaga -16 @ Santa Clara. My goodness what a gift.
8-19
USC +8 @ California. Reminder that Cal was once 10-1.
9-19
Morehead State -15 v. Tennessee State. Reminder that Tennessee State is only not a SWAC team because it's too far away from everyone else in the league.
9-19-2
Monmouth +5.5 @ Quinnipiac. I probably should've given up on the Hawks by now but meh.
9-20
Chattanooga -5 @ Furman. Gotta say I'm surprised they're Wofford's top challenger.
9-21
Wofford +1 @ East Tennessee State. Wow, GETTING a point?
10-21
Oral Roberts -1.5 @ IUPUI. This used to be a bigtime low major matchup. Now it's completely irrelevant.
11-21
Western Carolina -7.5 v. Samford. Feels like I take WCU in every game they play.
11-22
South Dakota State -3 @ IPFW. Jackrabbits have done a good job of keeping their program strong after losing Nate Wolters.
11-23
North Dakota State -10 v. Nebraska-Omaha. I still can't believe UNO has bottomed out this badly.
11-24
South Dakota -7.5 v. Western Illinois. I have ZERO clue what I'm getting from them game in and out but I know what I'm getting from WIU (bad basketball.)
12-24
Rider -9.5 v. Fairfield. Sydney Johnson leaving Princeton for Fairfield has to be one of the more baffling coaching moves of the last decade.
12-25
Murray State -14 v. SE Missouri State. Time for a blowout after some recent close games.
12-26
Tennessee Martin -4 @ Austin Peay. Heath Schroyer struggled at Wyoming a few years ago but he's done a great job in year 1 with the Skyhawks.
13-26
Northern Arizona -5 v. Northern Colorado. The team at home can defend, the other team can't.
13-26-3
North Dakota +2.5 @ Southern Utah. See South Dakota/WIU comment.
14-26
Idaho -2 @ Montana State. Still weird to see the Vandals in the Big Sky even if it makes perfect geographical sense.
15-26
Belmont +5 @ Eastern Kentucky. Nice to see this matchup on ESPNU.
15-27
Montana -1 v. Eastern Washington. Big time Big Sky showdown.
15-28
Mount St. Mary's +2.5 @ Bryant. Nice to see THIS matchup on ESPNU.
16-28
Holy Cross +1 v. Colgate. The Patriot's biggest surprise versus the biggest disappointment. We'll take the disappointment because nothing makes sense in the Patriot this year.
17-28
