Just sharing some work, especially since we owe a few to the masses. Our CBB has been more than fine this season, and will be Saturday, too.
524 UMBC / 523 Texas A&M-Corpus ChrOVER 157.0 Pinnacle |
|
Analysis: This one is just like the total we played on Monday in that if it looks like a rose, smells like a rose, and pricks like a rose, it's probably a rose. UMBC plays fast and has scored at least 80 points in all three of their post season games, all at home. So, I thought why not just take them? I might, but we're dealing with a CC team that played a great non-conference schedule, scores inside, and gets to the line. We know about the rule changes and in these small games the refs tend to think pretty highly of themselves. UMBC's defense just isn't any good. Their offense doesn't turn the ball over and their defense doesn't create many, so more meaningful possessions for sure. They DO shoot well from the line. CC WILL run off of three point misses - it is SUPPOSED to be a close game (FT's late) - and, and, and - gotta do it. If it's NOT a great scoring 1H there could be a 2H opp, which is one reason I'm betting it smaller.
