1-Unit Play. Take #523 Colorado (-3) over Colorado State (1 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
I'm starting to get the feeling that this Colorado State team is going to bomb this year. They have been blown out by any decent team that they've faced and they haven't looked good in their wins against bottom feeders. They are really missing Gian Clavell. Colorado has quietly been playing well. They are less talented but more team-oriented this year. They also have revenge for a bad loss to the Rams last year. I think Colorado can get this road win here.
2-Unit Play. Take #525 Georgia (+6) over Marquette (2 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
Marquette is kind of a mess. This team already wasn't going to be any good this year and then they just had one of their better players, Haanif Cheatham, walk off the team. They really only have two guys that can play, Andrew Rowsey and Markus Howard. That's not going to be enough. Georgia is a well-disciplined team that is very good at grinding teams down. They are coming off a nice neutral court wins over a ranked St. Mary's team. And Mark Fox's team has been solid on the road. I think they can get this W.
1-Unit Play. Take #528 Marshall (-5.5) over Akron (7 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
Marshall is a different beast at home. They don't even bother defend. But their offense goes up a couple notches in their own gym. They are facing a rebuilding Akron team that is loaded with freshmen and that might not be ready for the road. Marshall should bounce back after its sloppy loss to William & Mary here against a team that's only played four games and hasn't had time to gel
1-Unit Play. Take #535 St. Bonaventure (+1) over Buffalo (2 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
2-Unit Play. Take #541 Charlotte (+3) over James Madison (8 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
I don't think that James Madison should be favored over anyone. These guys are awful. Charlotte hasn't really beaten anyone. But their losses have all come against solid teams. Mark Price has a lot of experience on his roster and they have the best player on the floor in Jon Davis. It's not like JMU has some great home court advantage
2-Unit Play. Take #546 Western Michigan (-6.5) over Oakland (2 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
Oakland looks like it will be without Kendrick Nunn in this one. Even if he plays, Oakland has been very disjointed this season. Western Michigan has a real nice home court edge and this team looks like it is going to be one of the best teams in the MAC. They are coming off a blowout upset as a double-digit underdog in St. Louis. And as their first home game against a D-I opponent I think they will be up for this game and playing with a lot of confidence.
5-Unit Play. Take #554 Washington State (-7) over UC-Davis (3 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
UC-Davis scummed out a backdoor cover against Washington last week. I don't think they will do the same here against Washington State. Davis does not play many teams form the major conferences. And when they have over the last few years - even when they've had really solid teams - they have gotten wrecked because it is a major step up in class. Washington State is legit. They have had all week to recover from their impressive showing last week, beating St. Joe's, St. Mary's and San Diego State. Now they are back home where they have been rolling and I like Ernie Kent's team to run past Davis.
1-Unit Play. Take #564 Wisconsin (-8.5) over Ohio State (5 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
Wisconsin got embarrassed earlier this week in their loss to Virginia. And they've already taken a home loss this year to Xavier, a rarity. I think we will get their best effort here. Ohio State is a mess. Their roster stinks, their coach is still figuring things out, and they are coming off back-to-back demoralizing losses to Butler and Clemson. I don't know what they have in the tank.
2-Unit Play. Take #593 BYU (-1) over Utah State (9 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
1-Unit Play. Take #597 Nevada (-10) over UC-Irvine (10 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
We're going to keep betting Nevada until they don't cover a game.
1-Unit Play. Take #614 Kansas (-10) over Syracuse (5:30 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 2)
Syracuse is a tough team to blow out. But I think this is a good spot for it. Syracuse is in a bit of a letdown spot after their big win over Maryland earlier this week. This is also the first game outside of the Carrier Dome for this very young, very inexperienced Orange team. Kansas already played on a neutral site and handled Kentucky, and they have hammered everyone else they've faced. Kanass has a big edge in the backcourt and they have more than enough weapons to attack the SU zone. They will pull away in the second half and should take it to the Orange.

Paul Leiner:
I have been waiting all week for this one. It has been another profitable College Football season for us and tonight we have the Big Ten Championship game. I am all over Ohio State in this one. Thanks and goodluck.
