Alright, after an 0-3 smack down with our Thursday NCAA picks, we are up off the canvus like a prize fighter. Until Thursday it had been a good week picking NCAA games for Easycovers and we are ready to end it well. Correspondents with mad texts back and forth in the morning discussed following:
Pitt and Duke were huge road favourites. Pitt 17.5 over DePaul and Duke 22.0 over Wake Forest. Had a slight inclination to take the dogs here because of the recent home dog trend covering, but decided to stay away.
Other leans, but deciding to stay away. Texas +7 @ Kansas. Texas is on fire lately and should give KU all it can handle. Youngstown State also looks interesting +5 at home vs a bad Detroit squad.
Crazydavo was a fan of Texas A&M -5 at home to Kansas State. K. State has been reeling lately and Texas A&M has won 30 of the last 31 at home.
We like Nebraska to cover the -4 on the road versus Texas Tech in a Big 12 matchup. Nebraska last week kept it within 3 with Kansas and is 14-4 on ths season. Texas Tech got beat down by the aforementioned Kansas State and is 0-4 in the Big 12.
The numbers have D$ taking Louisville -5 over Providence. Providence is 0-6 in the Big East and #15 Louisville may have their flaws and few injuries, but should be able to cover this small spread.
D$ likes Marquette +4 @ Notre Dame. The Irish lost by 22 points at Marquette 12 days ago and although this game should be a lot closer, we like Marquette and the points here.
And finally D$ laid the cheese down on Michigan St. +6 @ Purdue. Lots of talk by Michigan State calling this a must win game to stay in contention for Big Ten title. Prime time, with Erin Andrews in the house, like the Izzo factor and riding the Spartans!
NHL Quick Picks:
Carolina +130 @ Pittsburgh. Crosby and Malkin out for Pittsburgh so they will struggle to score in this matchup. Take Carolina as a value bet here against the undermanned Penguins.
Washington -125 @ Toronto. The Leafs are not a good team and from a talent prospective are outclassed by the Capitals. Some value here as Washington on the road, playing their hot backup goalie should be able to get the job done here.
Good Luck today. D$ Out
