I'm Back in the Black: February 12th CBB Picks
YTD ATS Record: 35-32
HUGE 5-1 card last night with the Penn State triple winner on the over, +5 and ML +170. Not to mention a miraculous over hit by URI to close out the night. Even when they fuck me on the spread they still come back and find a way to bless me. That's the kind of swing that turns your whole week around. I love you Fatts Russell. Let's keep that momentum going people.
(6:30 Tip-off) Seton Hall -6 vs Creighton
Seton Hall has been one of the hottest teams in the country winning 12 of their last 13 led by one of the best players in the country in Myles Powell. I can't get enough of this guy. In my opinion the most exciting player to watch in college hoops. He's good for 20 on a bad day and can score from anywhere inside half court. They've got tough guards, strong size in the middle with a great rim protector in Romaro Gill and they're 16-7 ATS this season. Gimme the Pirates.
(6:30 Tip-off) Georgia -2.5 vs South Carolina
I'm riding with the home team with the best player on the court in this spot. Two mediocre SEC teams and one elite player in Anthony Edwards? Yup, I'm all over the Bulldogs here. Tom Crean is a friend of the program, and even though I haven't always loved him as a coach I think he's got enough juice to carry the boys to a home win here. By carry the boys to a win I mean he did a great job *cough cough* (giving Anthony Edwards duffle bags of cash) *cough cough* recruiting Anthony Edwards to Georgia! What a rich tradition of basketball they have down in Athens! Go Bulldogs baby.
Villanova -5.5 vs Marquette
It's Ryan Arcidiacono night at Villanova. You tell me there's a game where a legend of that team is getting honored and I couldn't be quicker to jump on it. This isn't any legend by the way. This is a guy who was just playing for Villanova. A man who won most outstanding player of the NCAA Tournament in their National Championship run in 2016. This man is a catalyst for why every player on Villanova's roster chose Villanova in the first place. They can't lose this game. They just can't. The "Arch of Dimes" they call this fucking guy. NOVA.
