Takings ST JOHNS. So. Is Mullin suiting up like its 1984? Is Malik Sealy and Boo Harvey starting? Zendon Hamilton and Felipe Lopez? Johnnies laying points? Georgetown won both regular season games. Hoyas the higher seed. I am guessing that Ponds is playing for this line to be where it is. We have seen these guys knock off Duke and Villanova in back to back games. I think this group underachieved this season. If Ponds comes back, wow. I think they are a deep March team. They have a nice big man inside who blocks shots and protects the rim. Simon is a very good player all around. The cliche police say we run away with this if we force turnovers and limit our own! 4* Money Maker ST JOHNS

Taking STANFORD. One. I think Cal is terrible. They have battled Stanford well beating them to start conference play winning on the road 77-74, and losing a close one at home 77-73. So why the big line? Maybe since Cal has dropped 7 straight and 9 of 10 while Stanford has won 4 of 5 with loss on the road in Arizona. Cal is shooting barely 41% from the field and less than 30% from 3. I can't see them catching fire here. Stanford is a team most expected to 'arrive' next year. This team was missing several players earlier in the year. All the top guys are back. I think they win this one going away. 4* Money Maker STANFORD

Taking NC STATE. I'm kicking myself for not taking BC yesterday, but I'll take a 7-0 day of college hoops. That being said. New day. New team to back. And I like this NC State team. Bracket works out nice for them. Always a little brother in state to NC and Duke. But the Wolfpack did knock off both teams this season. They also beat BC by 16 earlier this year. Also winners of 4 of 5 coming into tournament play. BC had dropped 4 of 5 before taking care of Georgia Tech. 4* Money Maker NC STATE

Taking TEXAS SOUTHERN. So. We can say that Tex So has won 10 straight in this series. They won 18 and 15 this year. Last year in the conference tournament, they won by 15 laying 15.5. They had beaten Alabama State by 13 and 2 during the regular season. Some teams don't match-up with others. It is clearly obviously in this case. Even though they are a 3 seed, I think TS has a shot at winning this thing. They are my highest rated team in conference play. 4* Money Maker TEXAS SOUTHERN

Taking SOUTH DAKOTA STATE. Cashed with both of these guys last night. Expecting a close game but for the Jackrabbits to pull away for the win. South Dakota notched a big win at home this year. But is still just 1-9 SU last 10 in the series. You know I like our Mike Daum and am hoping for him to get the big stage in the NCAAs. South Dakota State buried a 3 to win last year 74-71 in the tournament between these two. Jackrabbits looking for their 3rd straight Summit Tournament Championship. This is their 4th straight Championship Game and 6th in 7 years. They have won 4 of those with North Dakota State having a back to back run. 4* Money Maker SOUTH DAKOTA STATE

Taking VERMONT. So, laying 21 was a bit too much. But I think this number is about right. One, we have Stony off a doggy +9 outright win. Good work by them. They have also played Vermont tough. Losing by 9 at home and 11 on the road. They just are a poor shooting team. When you have Vermont hitting over 50% against you, you aren't going to win many games. They will hang around like they have. But I can't see them all of the sudden hitting shots and Vermont's entire team going cold. Vermont is a good team. 16-1 in conference with a 1pt loss on the resume. They lost 73-69 at Kentucky to open the season. Then won 5 road games before dropping a 4pt game at Bucknell. Who, is a pretty decent team looking to repeat as Patriot League Champs and go to the NCAAs again. The were down by 1 at Marquette before fading down the stretch and losing by 10. Lost by 4 at Northeastern, who will be playing for a CAA Title. A 4pt loss to a 24 win St Bonaventure team. Is a 2pt loss at Providence who was without their 2nd leading scoring a good loss? A win at Rutgers? I just think that Vermont is primed for post-season. There is no way that they shouldn't win this one by double digits going away. 15-20 should be the margin. 4* Money Maker VERMONT

Taking NC CENTRAL. This Coppin team is terrible. 1-20 on the road. Lone win, over SC State, where they somehow shot 52% from the floor and drained 12 of 26 3s. I am looking at these conference losses. 13-18-20-11-13-20-8 . Central has won by 20 at home, and 9 on the road. It was a 15 lead on the road at half. They cruised with 52% FG shooting, 9-18 from 3. Coppin shoots 36% from the floor. That is horrible. It isn't like we are laying 20 or even 10. A decent number to lay, but still a lot of value in taking the favorite. 4* Money Maker NC CENTRAL EAGLES

Taking SOUTH DAKOTA. As I said. I am looking for all South Dakota Finals tomorrow night. The clear leaders of Summit League play. Now. Denver won 84-68 back in January. Pioneers jumped out fast and never looked back. 15-3 out of the gate, 14pt halft-time lead. But as we look into that game, what do we see before hand. Ah.. South Dak handed bitter state rival So Dak St it's only conference loss 87-68. Coming off a game like that, you know it would be a flat-spot. Denver off the double OT game last night. Denver can shoot the 3, but I am not sure if they will have their legs late to get in the back door. I'll lay it. 4* Money Maker SOUTH DAKOTA

Taking EAST TENN STATE. These guys split the regular season. NCG winning by 18 at home as 2.5 faves, and ETST winning by 10 at home as 8.5 faves. East Tenn came slipping into the conference tournament. Dropping 3 straight and 4 of 5. But they have 18 and 11 pt wins under the belt in the first 2 rounds. Huge revenge for getting destroyed by NCG a month ago. The two best teams and the top 2 seeds is what it should be. But the 2 seed is a small fave. Also they were a much larger fave at home. My numbers have them pretty close and it reflects in the line. 4* Money Maker EAST TENN STATE

Ohio has won 7 straight in the series. So getting points is a nice bonus if you want them. 4* Money Maker OHIO

Yeah, the returned the favor with a 12 win on the road after that 5pt home loss. But they won't let Boston jump out like that. Not in a game like this. Bucknell is deep with returning players from last years team. This team has now won 4 straight Patriot League regular season titles. They won their tournament last year for the first time since 2006. They went b2b conference champs in 2005/6 and I think they do it again this year. Need to take care of business this afternoon. 4* Money Maker BUCKNELL

I think Alize Johnson is a beast that Valpo can't contain. 24-17 last game vs them. 15 and 11 averages on the season. We aren't laying any huge number here. I'm on the Bears. 4* Money Maker MISSOURI STATE

Like us the other night going down in flames with Vandy and Mississippi State. But for a smaller conference, I will move on a team getting what I believe is too many points. One. I think Marshall is better. They won in OT in the first meeting while shooting just 38% while UAB was nearly 47%. That is what a good team. Grinds out a win. We have a nice big man inside who is a human fly swatter. Plus he drops nearly a double/double a game. We have a great do everything guard, and I mean everything. 22ppg 6reb 7ast a game. Guy is everywhere. UAB 0-4 ATS run at home. 1-4 ATS in last 5 CUSA action. Herd 4-1 ATS last 5 in conference. Grabbing the dog. 4* Money Maker MARSHALL

Tigers are a good team, not just by the voters either. Numbers wise, they are also a Top 10 program which tempers some of my expectations tonight. Good teams win, but great teams win anywhere. And these guys have both of their last road games. I can forgive the South Carolina loss off a huge win over Kentucky. But that revenge is their final home game up next. We know Arkansas will be fired up in their final home game of the season. They should be an NCAA team. But 10 conference is a nice feather in their cap. 4* Money Maker ARKANSAS

I don't think there is a 'great' team, but a lot of good teams. Vols still in hunt for SEC title at 11-5 behind Auburn 12-4. State tied with 3 others at 9-7. Not a lot of separation as 5 more teams are 8-8/7-9. State 18-1 at home, lone loss vs Auburn over a month ago. 6-2 ATS at home in SEC play and on a 8-1 ATS run in SEC play. Vols good. I can't knock a 10-3 ATS run their last 13 on the road. They have only been dogs 3 times in SEC play (2-1).

Southern off a loss to Loy-Chi (24wins) after 2 straight OT games. So that loss isn't as bad as it looks. I can say road team and underdog trends points to our favor.

Niagara has dropped 2 straight. The loss of Matt Scott has been felt. Guy is easily one up there for MAAC POY consideration averaging 20pts 7.5 rebounds. But last I looked he was in an air-cast on crushes. I can't see him suiting up here. He won't be 100%, save him for the conference tournament. I try not to let things like that influence my play.

Taking DETROIT. Ok. Detroit is bad. And we have made our living the last month+ cashing ugly conference dogs. I wish we were getting 2-3 points and I would feel very good about this play. This is our 4th straight road game. Never easy in college ranks and 3rd in 6 days. But, we are off a 10pt road win. Lost the first 2 by 3 and 9 at Oakland as 13pt dogs. What I really like is that Ill-Chi has a pair of huge games up next. Northern Kentucky immediately after this, then Wright St. Both of those teams sit at 12-3 tied for Horizon League leaders. Ill-Chi 11-4. So I can see them winning but not really blowing Detroit out. The old look-ahead spot. Detroit lost to these guys by 9 at home start of February. Only real trend helping us is that the road team is 7-3 ATS last 10 in the series. Ill-Chi 7-3 ATS last 10 at home over the visitors. I will come back to scheduling and I think we sneak in under the number. 4* Money Maker DETROIT

Taking DRAKE today. Ok, first off. Apologize for the late add today. Long night here with a lot of heavy snow on the ground. But that isn't stopping us from cashing another winner in college hoops. So we are on the Bulldogs. Not sure why the line is so high. Maybe they are begging us to take the road dogs. I gladly will. I was high in Missouri State to start the year. And yes, they have strung together wins in their last 3 games. They had also dropped 6 straight in MVC play before those wins. I'm not sold on them - Drake won by 3 at home a month ago. I also see 3-1 (OT)-2 pt games the 3 games before that. Why won't we see another game like that? MSU on a 3-9 ATS run in conference play. Drake has covered 4 straight in the series. 4* Money Maker DRAKE

Taking AKRON. Time for some MACtion. Akron 4-9, Kent 6-7 in conference play. I have this line closer to 3 than I do 7 so this is a value play for me. The dog is on a 8-3-1 ATS run in the series which helps since it is tough to look past the Zips 0-8 road record. Akron 5-2-1 ATS last 8 trips into Kent. Both of these teams are down. Last year Akron won the regular season title and Kent won the tournament. I expect a close battle. 4* Money Maker AKRON ZIPS

LaSalle 1-4 ATS last 5 at home and 6-20 ATS last 26 in A10 play. Have to play the big dog here. 4* Money Maker GEORGE MASON

These guys play tough, close games. While will it be different this afternoon? Road team on a 5-0 ATS run. Underdog on a 5-2 ATS run.

Short number, we can handle this. 7-1 ATS run in Horizon play for Ill-Chi. Flames also 6-2-1 ATS last 9 here in GB and 4-1-1 ATS last 6 in the series. 11pt home win already under our belts this year. Most of the 2nd half the lead was closer to 20 than 10. 4* Money Maker ILLINOIS CHICAGO

Taking IUPUI. Ok. Ok I get it. 1-14 on the road. Scary to take. 1-6 ATS run in league play. Understandable. But. We are 5-9 in Horizon play, Milwaukee 7-8. So not much difference. They rallied at home for 1pt (2pt dogs) after being down by 4 at the half. That was on top of Milwaukee hit over 50% of their shots. So, getting big points. I think we hang and can grab a back door cover in a worse case scenario 4* Money Maker IUPUI
