weli, a strong 4-1 finish on sunday put me at 14-11 for last weeks picks.
bringing my season record for college hoops picks to .......80-64-0
that makes for a 55.6% winning rate....and +9.6 units for the season
was gonna take the night off with this light card, but decided to play one game tonite.
712 uconn +3....line started at 2 and is now 3....so i will give the huskies one more chance tonite....have watched the last couple of west virginia games and they seem to blow leads alot and i really am not all that impressed with the mountaineer play the last few times i have seen them!...........uconn is fighting for their tourney life and since calhoun came back and questioned these guys after that 60-48 beating cincy laid on them, they have responded well ...both these teams are not good covering teams ....west virginia at 11-14 and uconn at 10-14......but the huskies are still 13-3 at home and owe their fans one!...... and now after having won two in a row on the road ......vs. conference powerhouse and big east standings leader nova and then looking awfully good in pasting an improving rutgers squad just last saturday by putting them away 76-58!, they are coming home!..........i think now that calhoun is back in control of this team, and he is actually enjoying this situation!!.........he enjoys the challenge that lies ahead.....and he knows there is major work ahead of them and certainly seems to have gotten this message thru to his players!.....which is a major factor these days!.........if they are to go any further this season, they need to win toonite!.......because they are playing good ball again these past two games...this new spirit in the huskies play with the new chance to make a statement tonite and possibly move closer to a tournament possibility....plus the fact that i am sure they want to right themselves from the disgusting performance they treated their fans to with their last home game....that horrendous showing at home vs.cincinnatti which resulted in a 60-48 loss.....makes me think this uconn team will keep it going tonite.......a left over dog is barking at me....and i think its a huskie!...... ...take the three points ...a brillo upset alert has just been issued ....huskie dogs are howling!!....the play is uconn!
gl to all that play it....that probably is it for tonite, unless something comes up.........brillo

714 kansas-21.....i know 21 points is alot to give...but here is my reasoning on this one...first of all...someone has got to cover tonite..and both of these teams are very poor covering teams.....oklahoma is 9-14 (has only covered two of their last eight games)...and kansas is not much better at 10-13 (but has only covered one of their last seven games)....but like i said , somebody has to cover this game and since i got it at an even 21 points , there is the possibility of a push and nobody wins or loses!.....not like last night where the 1/2 point in the dukie game killed me!.....and , .looking a little deeper into the game , oklahoma has definitely got some problems with injuries.....they may have just packed this season away already!.......and they must go into one of the tuffest venues of college basketball this evening for a big twelve rivalry game not at full stregth....sounds pretty daunting to me!.......the sooners are but 2-11 in road games this season.....thats bad!....not as bad as washington on the road, but bad!!.....and they go on the road tonite to play the #1 team in the nation where the jayhawks are 16-0!!!....i dont know why, but i smell blow out in this one!....i am expecting a team like kansas to go on a tourney run pretty soon and really start putting it together ...not that they havent already, but i believe they go on a "covering" run.....and start living up to the experts predictions of them by really blowing some teams away....that is my opinion anyways...and it is the reason why i am going with the jayhawks tonite and laying the points.....a monday night blow out at allen fieldhouse tonite to complete a brillo sweep would be a really nice way to start out the week!!.....gl to all you jayhawks bettors tonite!......brillo
West Vir -2
Brillo you were 1 technical foul away from calling the Uconn score.
Thanks for the great call. I liked the huskies a lot also. I follow the eb and flow of the big east the a whole bunch and uconn was due this one.
Nice to win again.
season record...81-65.....55.5%.....+9.5 units
