[dherm360]

over in the Cavs game
Marquette plus 17
Nets plus 3.5

 

[WVUCollector]

on my 8 I have Marquette, I was thining about taking the Nets but that seems risky.

 

[dherm360]

what 8 do you have

 

[dherm360]

kinda like the sixers

 

[dherm360]

UWM is OK but a big 10 team getting points at home??

 

[WVUCollector]

Here's my 8:
Heat
Rockets
Sonics
Notre Dame
Marquette
Florida St.
BC
Maryland

There's also something where I can pick 8 and they'll spot me 5 more pts. per team. The odds on that are 10:1 I believe. So I may do that.

 

[dherm360]

northwestern has lost there last 4 games by an ave of 13.5

I like all of those too except for some reason dont like ND

 

[dajuan wagner]

if u have any iffy's than take the suns

 

[WVUCollector]

Great eye dherm, I don't feel as comfortable as I did yesturday so here what I did:

Straight Wager 01/26/05 14:51 ET
10.00/9.09 Result: Pending
Iowa
Northwestern 01/26/05 (20:00 ET)
Iowa -5

If Iowa wins then I win all my money back. Here's the money maker:

Parlay (4 Teams) 01/26/05 14:17 ET
10.00/100.00 Result: Pending
Heat(Miami)
Raptors(Toronto) 01/26/05 (19:10 ET)
Heat(Miami) -4

Rockets(Houston)
Hornets(NewOrleans) 01/26/05 (20:10 ET)
Rockets(Houston) -5

Sonics(Seattle)
Jazz(Utah) 01/26/05 (21:10 ET)
Sonics(Seattle) 0

Marquette
Louisville 01/26/05 (19:10 ET)
Marquette +17


Stay tuned folks, thanks for the input and the help. Again nice eye on the Iowa game dherm.

I'll probably do this again tomorrow. So be prepared to help me again, hopefully there's more games i'm comfortable with.

Ugly game, with Marquette looking worse then Louisville. Not good.
