If I was forced to bet out game I would pick Monmouth to cover and the under. I would personally only pick the under because I’m not sure about the spread. I could see it going either way.

Other games I like Elon+7- I think Furman will win but I would go Elon to cover.

They actually laid the lines well because I don’t see anything I would hammer without hesitancy.

Take the over on Lehigh @ Stony Brook. 90 will be scored in this one.

Point spreads seem about right.
Over/unders- like the South Dakota over big time.

Same here on how they set the lines. I was a bit surprised at an O/U of 72 and 22 pt. spread in the Lehigh/StonyBrook game.

I already have taken Furple with the spread and for a GaSo buddy of mine, GaSo (+6) against UL-Lafayette.

I'm leaning towards the following bets...
UNH (-10) with the under (53.5)
Monmouth (+21) with the under (57)
UNA (-12.5) with the under (55) [elevation issues for San Diego]
W. Illinois (-1.5)
So. Dakota (-18)
Lehigh (+22)
Kennesaw St. (-3) at home with the over (47.5)

Undecided on some over/unders

I always look for the games where I think they messed up. I think they did a great job here and would be hesitant.

Hell, I've won $800 since Thursday night...$180 for 9 games and I'm still playing with house money!

I'd do this, if I was there:
Stony Brook (-22) and under
Western Illinois (-1.5) and over
Monmouth (+21) and under
New Hampshire (-10) and under
Kennesaw State (-3) and over
South Dakota (-18) and over
Furman (-7) and under
Northern Arizona (-12.5) and under

That seems like a big point spread for the USD game considering it is at NSU.
