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: 149-114-5
2/18 Three Ball:
Iowa +2.5
Arizona +2.5
Oregon -2.5
————————————
Iowa +2.5 : The Badgers are a dead man walking. If there wasn’t already a confidence issue before, there will certainly be one now after they choke job against Michigan over the weekend. We simply have been giving Wisconsin too much credit for being the most experienced team in the country. The talent just isn’t there to compete with the likes of Iowa and Michigan. Also, Potter had his minutes significantly reduced last game. There was a spat with the coaching staff over his usage the last time that happened. May be nothing, but worth pointing out. Iowa will outshoot, and blow past the Badgers in transition tonight. Road win for the Hawkeyes.
Score Prediction: Iowa 75 – Wisconsin 70
Arizona +2.5 : This is probably not a sexy pick, and most would be scared to take it .. but I love the Wildcats tonight. They have size down low that will cause UCLA fits with Jalen Hill out of the lineup again. Also, the emergence of Kerr Kriisa has me salivating over what this team could become. The Estonian is named after Steve Kerr, and has modeled his game around the former Bulls star. He looked exceptional against Oregon, and I expect another great performance tonight. UCLA has also been struggling of late. Have lost two of three, and needed a 30+ performance from Juzang to squeak out a 3 point win over a poor Washington team. Arizona wins this game.
Score Prediction: Arizona 72 – UCLA 70
Oregon -2.5: No excerpt needed. Riding the train until the wheels fall off.
Score Prediction: Oregon 71 – Colorado 66
Best of luck! Let’s snipe this one y’all!!
