Anyone got any plays for tomorrow? I havent really been following it much but am looking forward to making some money this weekend.

I'm starting things off picking the over (148.5) in the Hampton/Maryland game. Of course, Maryland plays their classic up-tempo style, and both of their exhibition games went over this number.

The key to the play though, is Hampton's new style of play. Here's a quote describing it:

The biggest change in Hampton will be in its style of play. Nickelberry is introducing what he calls the new face of Hampton basketball, the "Frantic 40." It's a style that emphasizes aggressive, attacking, in-your-face play. The coach says all the recruits fit that style and the holdovers are going to have to learn it.

This could result in some confusion and turnovers on both sides, but should also result in a lot of easy baskets. This fits right in with Maryland's style, which makes the posted total seem modest and probably 5-10 points too low.
