I will do my best to provide a daily three ball of picks for all of you snipers out there. The goal is a 2-1 night, with some 3-0’s sprinkled occasionally. I recommend you play them individually .. however, never be scared of a little three ball parlay!
Season Record: 76-50-5
1/14 Three Ball:
Bryant -4
Samford +7
BYU +2
————————————
Bryant -4 : This line was simply too low at the open. Glad we grabbed it early. I see that it is -6 now in most places, and will probably touch -7.5 to -8. Bryant is simply too much to handle for SFPA on the offensive side of the ball. They are averaging 91.4 ppg, and are #12 in the country in true shooting percentage. SFPA’s freshmen are making up 46% of their minutes this season. The veteran Bryant squad will win this match-up by double digits.
Score Prediction: Bryant 84 – SFPA 72
Samford +7 : Christian Guess means so much to this team. In his first game back from injury against Chattanooga, Guess had a 13 &13 performance. UNCG is a scrappy defense that will cause some issues for Samford, but I expect Guess and Gordon to keep the Bulldogs in this game until the very end. You know what? I will predict the upset here. You love an underdog that can shoot threes well, shoot free throws well, and share the ball well. Samford checks all three of these boxes.
Score Prediction: Samford 78 – UNCG 75
BYU +2: The wrong team is favored here. BYU plays St. Mary’s game, and plays it better. Also, the recent emergence of Matt Haarms is a very welcomed sign for the Cougars. Double digits in his last 4. Keep an eye out for Brandon Everette. He went for 30 points recently, and I think you see a big game from him tonight. Barcello will be a nuisance to Kuhse, and BYU gets a nice road win to add to the resume.
Score Prediction: BYU 69 – St Mary’s 65
Best of luck! Let’s snipe this one y’all!!
