TheA_Bomb Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Stone Cold Lead Pipe Lock 8 point spread for Texas over KSU. KSU only 7 players maybe no Bruce Webber. My only concern is UT waited until today to travel because game was just a go as of this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow, that certainly seems like easy $. I’ll be tracking it to see how it plays out. And if Kansas State covers I’ll edit this post and call you a moron for being wrong. I was looking at their roster earlier in the season, I had forgotten how many big time transfers Texas added, could be an interesting team to track the rest of the way as guys settle into roles.

Yeah Disu (SEC leading rebounder for 2020) is just getting into the rotation after recovery from an injury. Texas has trouble scoring but the Defense is legit. They've played a weak schedule so far (except Zaga and SHU) but B12 is going to be tough with ISU emergence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are spot on with regards to offense struggling to score, trailing 35-29 at the half. Andrew Jones is out for Texas which is certainly a key piece. Still pretty wild Kansas State finds themselves leading this one most of the way in the opening half. Good reminder for me to never bet!

This would be terrible. But they can wear KSt down so we'll see. Beard is a good coach. Damn good thing I don't bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheA_Bomb Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 70-57 beat the spread, like I said stone cold lead pipe lock way closer than the score indicated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUBillsFan Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Central Arkansas won at Eastern Kentucky in a pretty big upset 79 - 72. KenPom had EKU with a 93% chance of winning. Our W over Central Arkansas is going to be Q4 no matter what but their win should help our ranking a little bit hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 VCU (+3) is a go tonight at Dayton on cbssn at 7EST/6CST per the Dayton Daily news. VCU hasn't played since 12/15. Elsewhere, Dasvidson go to Hagan to take on the Joeys (+4.5). And Umass (+10) is at Richmond. Both of these game on ESPN+ starting same time as VCU/Dayton. Let's see how well our one at-large pic does against our auto qualifier (per Lunardi) tonight. That seems like a large spread for Umass if you ask me.

Taj79 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I doubt Lunardi mentions St. Joe's again this season as part of his "bracketology" bullshite. The Joeys couldn't cover Foster Loyer. Of curse, the Joey's couldn't cover any Davidson starter. All in double digits with Brajkovic low man at 11. Only two points off Davidson bench however. I think Billy Lange is done on Hawk Hill come Spring. Umass covered the spread losing by 8. They were down 23 right before a five point flurry before half. They cut it to six with just over a minute to play but Richmond wasn't really playing by that point. Gilyard, Burton, Cayo and (surprise) Sherod all in double figures. VCU/Dayton was an exhibition in athletic talent with no real basketball skills. VCU was 7 of 21 from distance; Dayton countered with 3 of 15. DaRon Holmes is great ---- provided he dunks the ball. Three made shots; all dunks. Malachi Smith is great provided he can shoot layups. Only 3 of 6 from there but even anlayst Chris Walker dared him to shoot. Overplay him to his right. And he's out of control most times. Another strong bench exists at Dayton --- three points all from Brea on an and-one. What has happened to Zimi Nwokeji? Amzil continues to suck this year. VCU's only scorer is Vince Williams. The Rams were without Levi Stockard and Jayden Nunn due to COVID protocols. Tsohonis appears to be a transfer bust and while Baldwin made the winning shot, he was zip for three from distance before squaring up with 6.6 ticks to go. Willimas got knocked to the ground as the play developed so it was Ace or bust. Truly a game where no one really won except the clock expired.

billiken_roy Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 i watched most of the vcu dayton game. i was impressed with the athletes for both. however as the stats show, neither particularly good shooters. ironic that a 3 pointer at the end won the game. it was disgusting to see the fouls not being called. VCU shooting their first free throw almost at game end was terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
