2-Unit Play. Take #713 Indiana (-3) over Arkansas (3:30 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)I respect how good Arkansas is at home. However, I just don't think that this team is very good. Indiana hammered Marquette in their last game. Granted, that was at home and they are a completely different team in Bloomington. But they have more talent and I think they can scratch out a six-point win.
1-Unit Play. Take #723 Central Florida (-2) over Western Kentucky (6:30 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)
I like this Western Kentucky team. I just like Central Florida more. They were playing at a high level in their last game and I think that their guards a little better than WKU's. The Hilltoppers are in a letdown spot after their big win over West Virginia and I think that UCF will be able to grind out this win.
4-Unit Play. Take #739 Virginia Tech (+1.5) over Purdue (8:30 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)
I love the Hokies in this spot. Yes, they are smaller than the Boilermakers. But Virginia Tech is used to being undersized. They have better guards, more shot makers, and I think that they will thrive in the underdog role. Purdue does not face teams like the Hokies in the Big Ten. And if the ACC-Big Ten matchup is any indication, the ACC owns the Big Ten. I think the Hokie guards will harass Carsen Edwards and Tech will hold its own on the boards. They should get this win and I think the wrong team is favored.
1-Unit Play. Take #748 Providence (+8.5) over Michigan (1:30 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)
The Wolverines are playing out of their minds right now, winning all four of their games via blowout. However, the fact that this spread wasn't 10.5 - considering how they have been thrashing - is kind of a red flag. Also, Providence plays pretty well in the underdog role.
2-Unit Play. Take #765 Oregon State (-2.5) over Missouri (5:30 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)
I'm going to go back to Oregon State here. They gutted out a win over Old Dominion. I think they can do the same to a completely rebuilding Missouri team that, frankly, isn't very good. They got hammered by Iowa State and struggled against Kennesaw State and haven't shown me much of anything.
3-Unit Play. Take #776 Minnesota (-4) over Texas A&M (10:30 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)
So the same guards that were garbage and completely held back the Aggies last year are now the guys that the team is relying on this season? I don't think so. A&M is off back-to-back losses, including a home loss to UC-Irvine, and I think they will get torched here. Minnesota is a team on a mission this year. They were one of the country's biggest underachievers last season. Dickie Pitino is coaching for his job. And this team looks motivated coming out of the blocks. They have the size to bang with A&M and they have a big edge in experience. This will be a close game but it is one that the Gophers should win.
1-Unit Play. Take #783 Tennessee Tech (+34) over Michigan State (6 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 18)
Michigan State is likely going to be playing without big man Nick Ward. They are also packing up to head out to Vegas for a tournament this week. I think their motivation level is going to be pretty small for this game and a 25-30 point win will be more than enough.
4-Unit Play. #703. Take Portland Trailblazers -1.5 over Washington Wizards (Sunday @ 6:05pm est)
At some point Portland has to bounce-back and it is hard to imagine that a team that has revenge, who has lost two straight is not going to get the motivation to bounce-back here. Remember, Portland rarely loses 3 straight and this road trip has not been that great for them and they are still a top 10 defensive team, top 5 in opposing field goal percentage and had won 7 of 8 coming into this game. Look for Portland to get back on track after a pair of losses to to Minnesota and the Lakers - and the Minnesota loss was by 16 points and they simply ran into a Timberwolves team that wanted to prove itself after Jimmy Butler leaving and a Lakers team who had revenge. Nice spot here for Portland to get back on track
To anyone that cares, Big Al McMordie had Syracuse yesterday and Philadelphia today. He hasn't a clue about handicapping. He is irrelevant. It's been this way all football season. Avoid at all costs.
