Default Sweetpete's picks 11/25--keep fading

I still suck, but i actually like these plays today...

Penn St. -3.5 2 units
--Penn St. could be the most surprising teams in the Big 10

St. Louis +9.5 1 unit
--A well coached SLU team is underrated this year

Florida -4.5 1 unit
--The Gators should rebound today

St. Joe's -9 1 unit
--Fade Indiana all year and good things will happen

Syracuse +4.5 1 unit
--The 'Cuse impressed me last night

Loyola (Ill) +8.5 1 unit
--St. John's isn't good enough to cover this spread

Furman -1 1 unit
--Dartmouth is amongst the worst teams in D-1

Texas -2.5 1 unit
--Should be a great game, but Texas should pull away in the
2nd half.

Happy fading!

Gotta watch that STL team play on the road once before I would back them. They are night & day: road/home splits. That game will be ugly. Nebraska shouldn't pull away, but I don't know.

I agree, it's risky. But, Nebraska's home advantage doesn't kick in unitl Big 12 games in my opinion, plus they're nothing special this year.. I watched SLU beat BC and they are a much different team this year. More confident and playing smarter. I hope they keep it close

Their win against BC was at home. They always look good at home. (and BC is always terrible away, especially in ACC play)

St. Louis is one of those teams that would come to Chapel Hill and lose by 60 and then go home the very next week and play UNC to a 2 point loss in double OT.

Yeah I agree on St. Louis but they are the type of team that is going to keep the game in the low 60's and 50's heck even this year they scored 48 and won even though it was against a shit opponent. With their style of play, the question is will Nebraska be able to respond and win this game by 9.5 points? St.Louis is going to slow the game down to stay close.
- I also like St.Louis getting points here.
