I pride myself on my research prior to every game pick. I do not just pick games to pick, that would be unfair to anyone looking to make picks off my advice. I bet every game I pick so have confidence in the fact that I am trying to make money for all of us. I do not recommend making your picks solely off of what i pick, instead, compare my picks, your picks, and other very well respected cappers on this forum. I am fairly new to this forum and in a weeks time I have been able to identify the cappers who put in the work needed to make the best possible pick. At the time of this post I am on a 14-3 run because of my system I use. I ask for everyone who may look at this thread to contribute valuable information on games to help everyone. It is not just about me or you... we all want to make money and the best possible way is sharing thoughts and information. Goodluck all!

Pittsburgh -21 vs. Toledo

offense

Pitt: 85ppg 49%fg 72%ft 35%3pt

Tol: 58ppg 40%fg 61%ft 29%3pt

Defense

Pitt: 54ppg 36%fg 28%3pt

Tol: 70ppg 51%fg 31%3pt

1-5 rockets travel to 6-0 pitt. My advice to Toledo would be to save the gas and hotel money and forfeit the game. Seriously though, many may be scared to pick pitt giving up so many points but I look for the panthers to be up by 16 at halftime killing any hopes the rockets may have. Lets Cash!

North Carolina -8 vs. Kentucky

offense

UNC 88ppg 49.6%fg 70.4%ft 37.4%3pt

Ken 72ppg 48.9%fg 75.3%ft 33.3%3pt

Defense

UNC 67ppg 40.7%fg 34.8%3pt

Ken 53ppg 32.4%fg 23.4%3pt

I unfortunately waited too long and got the line at -8. I still think UNC with or without Lawson can cover this by a winning margin of at least 12. Although it may look like Kentucky has a great defense they have played absolutely nobody this year. Gardner Webb blew Kentucky out at home much like UNC may do. Goodluck and Lets Cash!

Hey JP. I appreciate your view of this. Thanks for the effort and for laying out there what you see.

And I like your Pitt pick alot.

[Jpound21]

Thanks Reg! yeah hopefully pitt will jump on em' early to take away any confidence and hope Toledo has.

[Jpound21]

Goodluck to everyone rolling with Duke. Game starts in 20min. I will check back periodically if i see any other picks i reallllly like on the day. Goodluck all

[KidDynamite]

Thanks for the picks J. I usually play what you have posted along with the games I like.
Cal Riverside +22
Indiana ML
Austin Peay -2.5

[Jpound21]

Hope you all made money... 2-0 on the day thus far... lets keep it up!

[methdmron]

nice job - i'm doing well today too! let's keep up the good work on this board

[OrionSky]

[Ditaln1]

Nice job JP! I took them both. Thanks for the winning picks!

[regularguy]

Nice Job! I put a good play on Pitt. You helped me get back in the saddle, after a bad day yesterday. Keep rolling.

[Jpound21]

Maryland -3.5 vs. virginia Commonwealth

offense

Mary: 70.4ppg 44.4%fg 67.3%ft 28.2%3pt

VCU: 66.7ppg 42.1%fg 68.9%ft 42.3%3pt

defense--------------------------------------------------

Mary: 64.7ppg 36.7%fg 34.9%3pt

VCU: 64.5ppg 40.1%fg 34.5%3pt

I look for it to be a close game until Maryland opens it up late. VCU has more veteran leadership however, a 3-3 record and coming off a 9 point loss to Hampton means no momentum entering tonights game. The terps however are 5-2 and coming off a nice 8 point win over Illinois. Keep in mind The Terps are 130-2 (.985) in non-conference home games under Williams. Goodluck and Lets Cash!

YTD: 9-1 (90%)

Texas A&M +3 vs. Arizona

offense

A&M: 75.6ppg 49.3%fg 60.0%ft 40.7%3s

Ariz: 80.0ppg 51.4%fg 76.4%ft 39.1%3s

defense

A&M: 58.7ppg 37.7%fg 30.1%3s

Ariz: 68.5ppg 43.7%fg 36.4%3s


Im rolling with the 7-0 Aggies on this one as they travel to 4-2 zona and try and get their first road win of the year. I think the aggies will win this one boards as they should dominate the boards and really take control of the game. It is a close game to call but getting 3 points should sway even the hesitant to take a&m. Goodluck and Lets Cash!

YTD: 9-1 (90%)

[Jpound21]

0-2 today yikes... I thought the A&M game was in hand in the first and it fell apart...rough day... hopefully tom. we get it back.

YTD: 9-3 (75%)

[Ballin]

Don't worry buddy, sometimes you have a great read on a game and it just doesn't pan out like it should. I guess that is why they play the game. Keep doing your thing though!

Towson St. -1 vs. Delaware

offense...

Tow- 67.2ppg 40.3%fg 67%ft 28.1%3pt

Del- 62.8ppg 39.0%fg 67%ft 32.9%3pt

defense...

Tow- 65ppg 42.9%fg 33.3%ft

Del- 68ppg 46.5%fg 24.1%ft


I'm going to go with (3-3) Towson st to beat the fightn' blue hens of Delaware. Any 5 of us cappers could suit up and play competitively vs. Delware they are that bad. The winless hens get dominated on the boards as well as turn the ball over at a ridiculous rate. Towson has a decent offensive mix with enough defense to shut down the already bad shooting hens. Towson has also gone... win, loss, win, loss, win, loss, so logically the next should be a win right? hey that has to count for something haha. Lets roll with the Tigers....Goodluck and Lets Cash!

YTD: 9-3 (75%)

[Cougar Bait]

I also like Towson St. tonight. Nice choice. Am thinking of making a small play on Missouri St. +10 vs. Arkansas. What do you think Jpound?

[regularguy]

I'll be on Towson State with you, JP21. These are two lousy teams, but I like Towson State's advantage in the rebounding and turnover columns. I think we cash this one.

[Jpound21]

I personally am not playing the missouri St +10 game but i could see why you would... Especially with one of their best players Cook back from suspension. Both teams are almost identical in stats so receiving 10pts does seem like a gift. My only concern for your pick is Ark's height... 1 7fter... 1 6'11...2 6'10s...all play so look for ark to come up and try and dominate the post and boards bc mis st tallest guy is 6'9. Goodluck on the game, I hope you cash in!!!

You make a good point here about the height advantage, but Arkansas has only out-rebounded their last three opponents (Delaware St., Missouri, and Oral Roberts) by 3,1,and 4. I am hoping this trend continues, and Missouri St. can hang with the Razorbacks.

[raydog]

all ats stats towards a towson win. they beat them twice last year and its obvious the dela. hasnt made any improvements to the squad. this is a bit of a rivalry because the schools arent too far apart. (which mind ****s me even more about the # moving up) i dont get it. i pounded the ml at 5dimes. +115

[NardVa]

Eveything points towards Towson winning but Delaware has played a tougher schedule if you look at their opponents win-lose record. And Delaware lost their last 2 games in the last min. I might roll with with Delaware on this one.

Towson's opponets are a combined 14-32
Del's opponents are a combined 15-15

[Jpound21]

good arguments for both sides of the Tow vs Del game fellas... It's looking like a complete toss up with half the cappers favoring Towson and the other favoring Delaware. It seems weird with alot of action on this game when theres such different views on the outcome...usually the most action game is favored one way by the majority of the cappers. Unfortunately theres going to be a lot of dissapointment when one of the two loses...i wish everyone the best tonight and thanks for the contributions of game insight nardva,ray, b.t.h, and reg. Nice rebutal on the ark game B.T.H. your right...whats the use of having the big men if they are not doing their jobs and gettin the boards? Ill be rooting for mis st. for those that made the pick. good luck fellas

[fredtheturd]

You all are silver tongued devils!!!

Seriously, I love reading both sides of picks.

Towson -1 was my wager, now at +1.5
Just bought Mo St. at +9

Keep it up Jpound! I felt your pain last night. Let's bounce back tonight!

I got burned on a and m too. I was on VCU though. Today you might want to take a look at mizzouri state. Also I know you wont like this but I really like Wofford to keep it close with wisconsin

[strictlywinners]

Love Towson today good play

[mrbig]

I'm really starting to like the Under in the Indiana game. Indiana plays Kentucky on Saturday. I think Indiana will get after it hard in the first half and then relax with some subs in the 2nd.

Indiana -14.5 1st half (46 - 27)
TN St +25 (90 -68)
Under 155.5
TN St + 2nd half

Thoughts?

[Jpound21]

so Towson is just getting blown out right now. Doesn't seem like they showed up which makes me think the second half will be the exact same. The tigers let me down.

[Jpound21]

I have alot riding on the Arkansas ml so all of those that picked mi st. dont be greedy and want a win lol settle for a loss and cover please haha.

[Jpound21]

sucks on the tow st. loss...still won big on the ark game so increased the bank roll makin it a successful day

[Jpound21]

North Carolina +25 vs. Pennsylvania

offense:
UNC: 87.6 ppg 48.6%fg 71.8%ft 38.9%3pt

PEN: 71.4ppg 42.6%fg 66.2%ft 30.7%3pt

defense:
UNC: 68.7ppg 41.3%fg 35.5%3pt

PEN: 81.0ppg 45.1%fg 41.3%3pt

This game favors the Tar heels overwhelmingly. Penn is coming off a 26 point loss to Villanova just 3 days ago. I look for the Tar heels to come out hot and jump on them early. UNC also has the edge in rebounding, steals, and turnovers. I'm rolling with the #1 team Lets Cash!

YTD: 10-4 (71.4)

[Jpound21]

Tennessee -14.5 v. Chattanooga

offense:
Ten: 90.3ppg 48.7%fg 62.3%ft 36.6%3pt

Cha: 80.1ppg 48.9%fg 63.4%ft 35.5%3pt

defense:
Ten: 65.0ppg 41.7%fg 32.1%3pt

Cha: 76.7ppg 44.1%fg 36.8%3pt

I like Tenn to cover in this matchup. Tennessee also leads in steals, blocks, turnovers, assists, and has the same rebounding as chattanooga. Chattanooga has already lost to Indiana by 20, S. Illinois by 22, and S. Alabama by 17. Tennessee should roll. The 7-1 Volunteers have already won 6 games by 14 or more points and will hopefully cruise past the mocs. Lets Cash!

YTD: 10-4 (71.4)
