Uh, Rutgers is playing Notre Dame and getting 8. You mean Seton Hall?

yes, sorry, was looking at the games all at once....damn umass falls short

Tell me why you like G'town here. They've lost 5 in a row, and they were games G'town had to win. I am leaning toward a no play but would like another opinion.

My rationale is basically that they are a more athletic and better team and with the loss of 5 in a row, i think the pride factor will come as they try and save some face against a pretty bad seton hall team. Gut feeling says georgetown but a no play could be the best thing

A lot like TCU's game. I was lucky on TCU and GeorgeTown and very unlucky on the Nets game (got it at -1.5 =\). Jason Kidd fouls with 1.5 seconds left. An OT would have been okay...then at least I would have hit the over. Nope, Smith hits 1/2 and no time to foul.

Oh do you have any idea how lucky you were to even be in that game game at the end? But in the last 1.5 seconds, you truly were unlucky. NO was down 2 and he fouls the guy shooting a 3. The guy misses the first 2 -- and hits the 3rd when he tries to miss it. If I had the Nets at 1 1/2, I think I would quit.

I know niss. I am truly cursed. I've seen the most amount of bullshit happen to my bets. For example, my team was outscored 1-12 in the last 1:12. On that same day, another team outscored 7-20 with 2:56 to go. I usually lose the .5 too...maybe I should have bought some points? I don't know...I guess I just got it at a bad line but I thought it opened at -2.
