Jesus is Back to Reality

2008-12-16T13:14:00.001-08:00

New updated after the weekend is The Jesus -0.8 Units.

5 Unit Under 164 Marquette @ Tennessee (In Nashville)- I am really big on this one and it is because I like it a ton. To go over you need each team to average 82 pts. Sure Tennessee loves to run with the ball and being at home allows them to do this a little better, but lets look at the numbers. Overall the average for these teams is 166.2. That includes all their games against Tennesse High and Northeastern Bumblebeefuck State. Against decent competition Marquette averages below 70 a game(Wisc 61, IUPUI 69, Dayton75) and Tennessee averages 78.6 (Temple 72, Gonzaga 74, Georgia Tech 90) and both MU and UT are good teams 148.6avg. Now lets look at their last five, which include those teams. MU - 71.8 UT - 80.2 = 151.2 which is waaaayyyy under. Also in the last 5 the two teams give up an average MU - 61.4 UT - 76.4 = 137.8. Even Tennessees Off/Defense for the year is under this total at 158.6

Oh and JP Prince is Doubtful for Tenn
DADDY LIKE

2 units Rockets vs. Nuggets over 199 - points

ATS : Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Jesus Quintana: Let me tell you something, pendejo. You pull any of your crazy picks with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you, stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger 'til it goes "click."

3 Unit Over 193.5 Pistons @ Wizards- The Wiz are giving up an avg of 104.5 a game over their last 9. And with AI detroit can put up some serious points.

2 Unit Lakers -11.5 @ Kings - The Lakers love blowing out shitty teams.

Picks 12/09 Austin Hunt

2008-12-09T08:22:00.000-08:00

Virginia Tech (-3) vs Georgia- 5 Units
St. Joseph's (-4) vs Towson- 4 Units
Davidson (-1) vs West Virginia- 4 Units

I know these are all big units but I am not trying to make up ground. These are very good plays, Towson and Georgia are terrible even if they are at home. Davidson should win vs WVU, they are the better team and Curry is sensational. Neutral site.

Bowl Season

2008-12-08T06:08:00.000-08:00

Lines are up for the big games. Does anyone know when the service that Carl uses releases their bowl lines? Since we're all here to win money, I figured we could throw some ideas around.

Let's get some discussion going on these games.

**Note: These aren't official plays, I'm just putting some thoughts down, so feel free to discuss any bowl game in this thread.

TCU vs. Boise
Outside of some of the BCS games, this will my most anticipated game of the year.
TCU will be favored in this game, and I think that a lot of people will be really confused by the line. If this is anywhere under TCU -4.5, I will be all over this one. #2 defense vs. #3 offense. I think TCU's playing much better ball right now.
TCU had a bad spot playing Utah. They travelled to UNLV and turned around 5 days later and travelled back out west where they were road favorites with a short week and on a nationally televised game. Even with that loss, I think TCU is playing some of the best ball in the nation right now. Boise's offensive strength is the run, and TCU's defensive strength is the run, and when two teams match up like this, I'll take the defensive strength over the offensive strength every day.

Utah +11 vs. Bama
I think that this is the best matchup that Utah could have hoped for. These are two very similar teams in all aspects of the game, and this should be a very low scoring affair. Utah has a stellar defense with the best secondary in the MWC and a big and fast defense that should be able to contain an Alabama offense that likes to run in between the tackles much more than bounce the ball to the outside. Utah also has the best special teams unit in the country, which will be a huge advantage in a low scoring game. I think that Bama will win this one, but don't really think that they deserve to be favored by double digits.

Analysis will be short because I am tired.

For the Year, Jesus is 4* 2-1, 3* 0-1, 2* 2-0 for a total of +4.3 units

2 Unit Cavs -8 @ Bobcats - My Lebron is on Fireah.

5 Units Over 211 Warriors at Spurs - Manu is back, the Spurs are healthy and the Warriors STILL don't play D. 125-110 Final

2 Unit to win 5.2 Unit Parlay on BC pk vs. Va Tech and Pitt +2.5 at UConn- BC Beat Va Tech earlier this year and have been playing better lately. No one will be at this game. Pitt should run all over the Huskies, plus this is payback for a lost 4 star earlier.

3 Unit Navy -10 buy 1/2 pt (risking 3.6) vs. Army - Navy is a far superior team and all Army has going for them is the riavalry. Buy the half if you want the security of the push

3 Unit FLO-ri-da -10 vs. BAMA- Jean Shorts!

Day 2 Captain's Log

2008-12-06T06:30:00.000-08:00

Cub A Lub made a great comeback posting an impressive +7.8 on the night, putting him almost back in black. Austin moved into first place with a positive 2.8 night. H. Burns, where do I start? He changed his name to Hunter, perhaps trying to dodge his horrible first night (-9.1), and posted an abysmal -19.8 unit night, pushing his bottom dwelling total to -28.9, define: FAIL. Don't quit your day job. Good luck on the weekend.
