It has been a busy week and the primary reason why I have not been on the Forum that much. It is always crazy at this time of the year and so much so that My Family and I will be having Thanksgiving Dinner somewhere other than my Place in Downtown Memphis. The Peabody Hotel here has a Fabulous (But Pricey) T Day Thing going on so Mrs Shaker has made the reservations. Those Ducks that come out to the fountain in the Lobby always look just a bit more nervous than usual on Thanksgiving Day. I'm not sure why?
CBB Totals Running Nicely again this year and 17-7 on these this season..
#746 Drake/Pepperdine UNDER 136.5: Playing Overs this Season has been The Thing to Do for the most part and even though I have not updated my files, I think they are hitting 59%-ish Overall on all games played. This one has a good shot at going the other way though. I actually did have a Twitter Play last night on the Drake/Weber game Under and it won nicely. These teams not very Pace-worthy and each rank low in OE. Pepperdine is right at #270 with FG Percentage and Drake come in at about #170 according to my numbers. The Bulldogs have had good success from beyond the arc. A hot shooting night from them at the longer distance could do us in here. We have set out to make a numerical list of those teams that are helped by the new rules, both of these are low on that list. Especially The Wave and maybe that is why they are already 4-0 UNDER this season. In these days and times that's pretty incredible. We think that moves to 5-0 this evening despite the lowish number..
