(photo: Texas Athletics)

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: 128-97-5

2/9 Four Point Play:

Georgia State / South Alabama o143

Texas tto 72.5 / -13.5

West Virginia +6

————————————

Georgia State / South Alabama o143 : The pace will be dictated by the home team today. Georgia State ranks 27th nationally in possessions per game. South Alabama is about middle of the pack, but they tend to play at the speed of their superior opponents when they take a step-up. The teams average 83.1 and 76.4 ppg respectively. I expect threes, fouls, fast breaks, and a close game coming down to the wire. We may even get some OT action, but we are going over the total regardless.

Score Prediction: Georgia State 77 – South Alabama 74

Texas tto 72.5 / -13.5 : Shaka Smart’s team has had to listen all weekend long about how they are frauds. About how they have lost 4 out of 5. About how this is the same old Texas. That is baaaaaad bad news for Kansas State. You never want to be in a match-up with a team that is significantly better than you, and pissed off. The three headed monster of Ramey, Coleman and Jones shot a combined 10-49 from the field in Stillwater. Look for that to be around 25-49 today. This will be an absolute assault. Get Right Game at it’s core.

Score Prediction: Texas 82 – Kansas State 61

West Virginia +6 : I am taking with the points with the Mountaineers in what should be another instant classic tonight in Lubbock. The first time these two met up this season was one of the best games of the year. It came down to a last second shot from Mac McClung to win the game that rolled off of the rim. Tonight, McClung makes that shot. However, it will be a one possession game again. I will take two possessions in points to my favor.

Score Prediction: Texas Tech 73 – WVU 70

Best of luck! Let’s snipe this one y’all!!
