Anyone on Nova tonight?

I want to be against UCLA because of the luck that went into the run but I find myself thinking they are actually going to be pretty damn good.

I lean UCLA.

Not a bettor but if I was I think I’d stay away from the game tonight. Mostly because I don’t believe in either team relative to their preseason rankings. I think Nova is probably better, but being on the road with such a late tip time gives me pause.

I don’t buy Nova so I’m pretty confident in ucla with home court and time advantage

Wichita State -13 over Southern Alabama is the lock of the week. I’ll give another lock of the week as long as I am correct each week. This could last one week…

1:19 left, Wichita State up 61-58. That was fun. Goodbye.

I’ll stay away from that one. You’ve got the champs going up against the former Big Ten DPOY. Hard to know which one will come out on top in this battle of winners.

Is Kofi out again tonight?

I think he will be out tonight. I read he was suspended 3 games so this would be the last one he would miss.

I wanted to talk myself into Marquette plus the points but they’re basically Darryl Morsell and 6 freshmen.

I’ve been enjoying PrizePicks in week one and am rolling with this tonight if you guys want to follow.

Dylan what’s the PrizePicks thing again? Basically looks like you’re parlaying various player props every night?

Yeah, it’s basically a “daily fantasy” site where you parlay different picks. For CBB they have “fantasy points”, points, rebounds and assist lines. Then there are different payouts for different combinations.

For example, if you do five picks, then 5/5 pays out 10x, 4/5 2x, 3/5 pays out .4 X.

Fantasy points are calculated like this:

Action Points
Point 1 pts
Rebound 1.2 pts
Assist 1.5 pts
Block 3 pts
Steal 3 pts
Turnover -1 pts

So it makes sense to prioritize guys who get steals/blocks, or at least be aware of that quirk.

I’m not sure if the early season lines are soft or what but I’ve been pretty hot these first few days. Here’s one I hit last night:

Seems up your alley as the parlay king :rofl:

Love the board tonight which is always bad news

Alright I am hooked already. Used you for promo code too, thanks!

What sportsbook do you guys use? I’ve used Bovada in the past, wondering if I should stick with it.
