Vegas Line: USF -6.5; o/u 125

USF is 18-9 ATS this year and 7-1 ATS in games coming off a win against a conference rival.

I generally don’t like giving that many points in a Conference tournament, but coming off the big win against UConn Saturday I expect the Bulls to be able to cover the 6,5 points in this one.

USF 68 – Demons 59

I think Depaul begins a run of destiny today.

And I am really going to enjoy taking this many points on a Tuesday: DEPUAL +6.5

One year ago today

The S&P was at it’s all time low, Georgetown lost for the 2nd time in a week to St. Johns, and I was in the middle of not sleeping for 48 straight hours because of work.

Things are much better this year.

poor f**ker

The D-bag USF fan in crowd that ESPN just put on national tv. That dude sprang for tix at the garden just to see Dom Jones get his. I have to assume that USF brought contingent of fans no larger than 150.

150 is a stretch

id say 15.

what do USF student do on spring break that they dont do every thursday-saturday?

Query

Does Stan Heath pay for his own meals at Bern’s? 2-1 that he has to reach deep into the pockets after ordering a casual Delmonico with Bearnaise and asparagus.

by RepublicansWearNikes2 on Mar 9, 2010 12:34 PM EST reply actions  

Pathetic

Scoring less than 10 points during the first 15 mins of play in the Big East Tournament should be grounds for automatic dismissal from the Conference

uhhh

that sounds like Hoyas first half against the Johhnies last year

the most entertaining part of this game

quick aside

A dude I work with is a Gonzaga High grad . . . DeMatha crushed Gonzaga in the Catholic School league championship last night . . . this is only noteworthy because he sat next to Freeman, Clark, and Monroe who all took in the game . . . glad they were watching high schoolers play rather than hitting the books, or the weight room, or watching tape of Dom Jones, or PRACTICING FREE THROWS!!!!

Even if we win tmw, the Cuse beats us by 20 on Thursday. . .

Big Boi is from Savannah

from ny times:
The basketball rims at Madison Square Garden have changed since last year. That’s because the N.B.A. wanted its rims to be "softer," in order to have higher-scoring games and better shooting. So if you’ve been wondering why there have been more friendly bounces in the N.B.A. this season, that’s why.
