I like DePaul +5. Louisville has already clinched the conference regular season championship, and DePaul needs this game for a shot at an NCAA bid. Plus, Louisville has thus far played very tight games against good teams on the road. Most importantly, the line is right about where it should be based on the team power ratings, meaning the situational factors above have not been priced into the line yet. FWIW, I also like DePaul on the ML at +200 or better.

I might have another play later today when the lines are up on the conference tournament games. For those that are interested, I think I am 5-1 YTD on posted picks. I will start keeping a better record as I post more of them. Good luck to all.

I like West Virginia -2.5 at Seton Hall. WV needs a win and they have been hot, meaningless game for SH.

I guess I'm glad I took Depaul 2H +3. Was a close one. I had Louisville at -4.5 so if Louisville won by one more pt, I would have pushed on the 2H and won my original pick. /images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Game was close late, pretty much as expected. I thought DePaul would play a little better down the stretch than they did. That last minute by DePaul was UGLY. But I'll take it.

Another embarassing spanking in Storrs.
Syracuse and Uconn will likely meet again in the Big East Tournament Semifinals.
It kills me to say this being a diehard Orange fan, but you can bet the mortgage on the Huskies in that game, whatever the spread is. They just own 'Cuse; McNamara & Pace are non-factors against them, which is 2/3 of their offense.
