With Football behind us, it's College Hoops Time

February 04, 2013

The Super Bowl was profitable for me and my readers if they followed my four verdicts in the cross sport props. Football is gone now so the focus moves to college basketball. There will be a lot more eyes on these games which figures to mean more money being bet on these games.

Record 24-15

Notre Dame (+9) vs. Syracuse

I'll qualify this by saying I'm a disgruntled Syracuse alum. Contrary to most who wager on their teams, I'm especially hard on them and don't mind fading whenever I can. This is a spot for that. The Orange are not playing good basketball right now and look quite ordinary. Michael Carter-Williams and Brandon Triche shot terribly Saturday at Pittsburgh and now a team with just seven scholarship players is coming home on a quick turnaround to face the Irish who have played them well. Notre Dame can beat you on the outside with Eric Atkins (44.4% from three point land) and the inside with Jack Cooley (58.8% FG percentage). I think this is a large number for the Orange to cover.

Texas (+6) vs. West Virginia
It's been a rough season for the Mountaineers and Longhorns as they face off for part two of ESPN's Big Monday. Texas has not had the season they thought they did as Myck Kabongo still has not played. Sheldon McClellan and Julien Lewis both average double digit scoring this season. They lost to West Virginia at home back on January 9th 57-53. The Longhorns have won two of their last three games. WVU finally has someone averaging double digits as Aaric Murray checks in at 10.1 ppg. I'm going to back the Longhorns and hope for a close low scoring affair.
