Our first night back on Pregame started just like we left with a winning night. We have a pretty large slate full of favorites which isn't like us but that is the way the system called them tonight so lets get to it!
3* Plays
James Madison -7
This is our top play of day with James Madison taking on Delaware. Delaware plays absolutely no defense whatsoever and as a result Ron Curry is going to have a field day! We think he could go for 30 easily against this porous defense. We will take the better, more veteran team in James Madison.
SMU -11
This is a tough spot for SMU as they are DD favorite against a very poor team. We think that SMU continues to show up as it has done all year. What a difference Kennedy coming back makes for a team like SMU. SMU is clicking on all cylinders and South Florida should really not put up much of a fight even though they are at home. This is looking like a 20 point win for SMU tonight!
Air Force -8
The check your local listings game tonight. No one should really be watching this game tonight unless you have some skin on it like we will. This game is against two bottom feeders with only one win in conference. So you must be asking yourself why are we backing a road team with only one conference win who is missing their best player it is because they are playing San Jose State. This team looks lost on both sides of the ball especially on the offensive side of the ball. Even though Air Force really doesn't play much defense they should be able to stop the pathetic attack of San Jose State. Olesinski has really stepped up in the absence of Yon and should cause problems inside tonight.
2* Plays
Northern Iowa -7
We really wanted to pull the trigger on this game as a 3* play but downgraded it as we are afraid of Northern Iowa looking ahead to their game against Wichita State on Saturday.
South Dakota State -9
Omaha loves to speed it up and that is going to cause many issues on the defensive side of the ball against a very gifted South Dakota State team. SDSU should be able to get to 80 easily with Omaha struggling to get above 60 against SDSU's staunch defense.
1* Plays
Richmond -12.5
Wake Forest +4.5
South Carolina +4.5
Rice +5
Saint John's -1
