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: 96-72-5
1/25 Three Ball:
Southern Illinois +7
Furman -4.5
WVU ML -120
————————————
Southern Illinois +7 : This team needed time off after their abysmal performances on the road at Drake. The break was for a COVID shutdown, but they have been practicing over their last few days. They will be fired up to get back on the right track in their first game in 21 days since those ass beatings. I still love to back a team that is 12th in the country in three point shooting percentage. They also shoot it 74% from the line. This game with come down to the wire, and I hope Domask can hit some late shots to steal a win for the Salukis. I will take the points though.
Score Prediction: SIU 70 – Indiana State 69
Furman -4.5 : The Paladins are another team that is hoping to bounce back. Two straight road game head scratchers for Bob Richey’s club. They will come corrected today, and will take care of a surging UNCG squad. In my opinion, Furman would cover -4.5 vs any team in the SoCon today.. so, this is not an indictment for Wes Miller’s squad. They have actually been playing well. However, Bothwell and Mounce will go for 20 each, and Furman will get back on the right track.
Score Prediction: Furman 79 – UNCG 69
WVU ML -120 : WVU can pack it in and play ugly with Texas Tech, and their advantage in the game will be from the perimeter. McBride, Sherman and McNeil can really get it going from outside, and they are exponentially better in home games. Culver is the X-Factor. A big night for him will surely lead to a Mountaineer victory. He will get help from the others mentioned above in a big home game for Bob Huggins and WVU.
Score Prediction: WVU 65 – Texas Tech 62
Best of luck! Let’s snipe this one y’all!!
