NCAA: Virginia Tech vs Southern Illinois

Posted by Ryan

Virginia Tech +110

This might be hard to find, but I wouldn’t take anything less than +110 for VT.

NCAA: Purdue vs Florida

Posted by Ryan

Purdue +12 (-110)

This opened at a good number, but thanks to a flood of money on Florida it’s moved all the way up to 12! I don’t expect Purdue to hang all that well with Florida, but the true point spread is about 8.5. Good odds here with Purdue.

NCAA: Texas vs Virginia

Posted by Ryan

Virginia +140

Texas should a roughly -122 favorite in today’s game, and while I expect to lose this bet more often than win it, I expect to make a decent return over the long haul.

2007 NCAA Tournament: Day 2

Posted by Ryan

All the lines yesterday were fairly sharp (at least from my perspective).

I don’t follow NCAA basketball all that much, but this time of year you can usually find some live dogs that provide some value.

I’ve got two so far, with another late one that might have value depending on how the money flows. As of now, however, these are it.

Creighton +110
Arkansas +115

You can optionally take the points with these guys, but odds are if they lose they’re not going to cover the point spread. As such, there’s a little more value with taking the money lines.

NCAA Basketball: Virginia @ Wake Forest

Posted by Ryan

Wake Forest +2.5 (-110)

This is only my second college basketball bet of the year, and like last time this has to do with the ass factor.

Since beating Virginia Tech, Virginia has gotten so much ass (and acclaim for being #1 in the ACC) they can’t possibly concentrate on basketball.

Because of this, I expect Wake Forest to cover more often than not.

NCAA Basketball: Virginia Tech @ NC State

Posted by Ryan

NC State +6 (-110)

I don’t follow college basketball all that much, but from time to time I’ll place a wager if I feel there is subjective value that most bettors are overlooking.

This is one of those cases, and I like to call it the ass factor.

Virginia Tech is coming off a big win @ #4 UNC, and from the time they won the game to now the players have gotton so much ass that they can’t hardly concentrate on basketball.

NC State is on the other side of the spectrum, as I doubt they’ve gotten much ass since the 15 point home loss to Maryland on Valentine’s day.

I expect NC State covers 6 points at home in this situation more often than not.

NCAA Tourney - Elite 8

Posted by Ryan

Texas -3 (-105) over LSU
Texas is arguably the best team left in the tournament, and they will likely win this game. This number should likely be 6-8. LSU played tough against the best team in the nation, and won, and it will be tough for them to do the same twice in a row.

Connecticut -8 (-102) over George Mason
We will finally see if George Mason is for real, as they’re going against one of the best teams in the country in UConn. This should likely be a double digit win for Connecticut.

NCAA Tournament - Sweet 16

Posted by Ryan

Texas -5 (+101) over West Virginia
West Virginia is no slouch, but Texas is one of the elite teams left in the tournament and they should show their might in this game versus the Mountaineers. This should be closer to a double digit type of win for Texas.

Villanova -2.5 (-109) over Boston College
This number seems to be a little low, but the hype with Boston College going to the Final 4 is taking hold throughout the nation. I’m not buying into the hype, and Villanova should win this game by 8 points or so.

NCAA Tourney - Round 2 / Day 2

Posted by Ryan

Memphis -8 (-106)
Memphis should win this game by double digits, and Bucknell will have a tough time keeping up with this #1 seed.

North Carolina -5.5 (-108)
This number should be closer to 10, and North Carolina should take care of business and make it to the sweet 16.

West Virginia -8 (+100)
West Virginia should also win this game by double digits. Northwestern St got lucky in the first round, and WVU has a good chance at doing what Iowa failed to do.

NCAA Tourney - Round 2 / Day 1

Posted by Ryan

Washington +114 over Illinois
Indiana +135 over Gonzaga

Both of these games should be fairly even, with both teams even possibly being slight favorites.
