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: 148-112-5
2/17 Three Ball:
Butler -1.5
Fairleigh Dickinson -3.5
Northeastern tto 60.5
————————————
Butler -1.5 : I love the way this team has come together since the addition of Bo Hodges. The ETSU transfer has completely turned things around for the Bulldogs. After winning their last two games at Hinkle Fieldhouse, I expect them to add a third straight win at home in a revenge game over a struggling Marquette. Marquette was already bottom third in America in defensive efficiency, and they just lost their best defender, Justin Lewis. Things are not going well for the Golden Eagles, and this is not a great spot to get right. Butler evens the season series tonight.
Score Prediction: Butler 69 – Marquette 64
Fairleigh Dickinson -3.5 : B2B System spot here. I do not see a scenario in which Fairleigh Dickinson drops two at home to St. Francis. Jenkins, Williams and Rush have all had a game over 28 points in the last few weeks. That star power will show tonight as they have revenge on their minds. Don’t over think it. The Knights get it done at home.
Score Prediction: Fairleigh Dickinson 79 – St. Francis BKN 72
Northeastern tto60.5: I really love this play. To start, UNC has allowed 61 points in 16 of their 19 games this season. Yes, this total has hit at a 16-3 clip. Also, two of the times that it did not .. the total landed on 60. Close to a perfect record of going over 61 points against Carolina this season. We must trust the analytics and ride with this tonight. Also, this pace will be driven by UNC. They will hurt Northeastern down low and probably have a sizable lead for the majority of the game, which will rush Walker and the Huskies to try to score in a hurry. I don’t think we absolutely soar past this number, but I see it more in the 64-66 range with the potential to go higher based on tempo.
Score Prediction: UNC 80 – Northeastern 65
Best of luck! Let’s snipe this one y’all!!
