Peter Loshak welcomes well-regarded college basketball handicapper Edward from Right Angle Sports to SBR.tv to get his opinions on some of the most controversial and heavily-debated Round 1 lines. Edward and Loshak look at 8 different games, and numerous posts from SBR posters are cited.
Part 1: Introduction
Loshak introduces Edward, chats with him a bit about Right Angle Sports and their recent success, and asks a few quick general questions before diving into the game analysis.
Part 2: Siena/Purdue
Topics include Siena's history as a giant-killer and the injury to Purdue's Robbie Hummel.
Part 3: Murray St/Vanderbilt
Topics include Strength of Schedule disparity and conference strength.
Part 4: Florida St/Gonzaga
Many expected Gonzaga to be favored in this one. Quotes from SBR posters freeVICK, mv09, and KGambler are noted.
Part 5: Big East vs Pac-10 (Louisville/Cal and Washington/Marquette)
The Big East's reputation as a powerhouse conference next to the Pac-10's reputation as a weak conference this year could be heavily influencing the lines in these two games. Quotes from SBR posters MendozaLine, elchampion33, Ralphie1412, HoulihansTX, jagmaster, and mlb are cited.
Part 6: Utah St/Texas A&M
Strong posted opinions from SBR posters james4512 and Chi_archie are highlighted.
Part 7: UTEP/Butler
Butler's relatively recently-acquired big reputation could be having them overvalued against a lesser-known but similarly talented mid-major opponent. Quotes from posters onthewhat and Snowball are noted.
Part 8: SD St/Tennessee and Conclusion
Tennessee may be overrated, but also may be hyper-motivated to prove their detractors wrong. Quotes from docbarnes and THE PROFIT are mentioned.
