    On the Gannon SHU game, I'd add that Gannon had their bye Monday night so are well rested by comparison. Sucks we didn't get a legit few days to heal, esp women, but 2 in 5 day vs 3 in 5 is nothing to ignore for bets both tonight and Saturday.

    Not exactly a made-for-primetime lineup tonight. Nonetheless, point spreads can make any game interesting. Time is quickly running out. Happy gambling, you degenerates.


    Cheyney at Shippensburg - An old freind makes a now-rare visit to Heiges Field House tonight. For a Raiders' team on a 9-game losing streak, this is the perfect time to get reaquainted. The Wolves, formerly of the PSAC, appear to be the much-needed remedy for a Shippensburg team down in the dumps. The Raiders are fresh off a 20-point blasting by shaky-at-best Shepherd. Chris Fite's team is also deeply entrenched on the PSAC Tournament bubble. While a win tonight won't help that cause, anything positive should help Shippensburg get back on track. Not a whole lot is known about this Cheyney team. The results that are out there (which take some time to find) aren't good. Look for the Raiders to stop the bleeding. Ship -15.5

    East Stroudsburg at Mansfield - Just when things started looking up for the Mounties, well, they came crashing down in a hurry. Mansfield is on a 3-game skid, and things surely won't get any better tonight. The visitors have won four straight. This will wrap up a gauntlet stretch for the Mounties (Millersville followed by road games at Lock Haven and West Chester). Their schedule drastically lightens up after ESU leaves town. The Mounties are a scrappy bunch. The played Lock Haven and West Chester pretty tough (11- and 10-point losses). The Warriors win tonight but the big question is by how many points. ESU -14.5

    West Chester at Bloomsburg - The Rams are fresh off a heartbreaking home loss to Millersville (89-86). The Huskies have dropped their past three, but have played fairly decent (highlighted by a 9-point loss to East Stroudsburg). Frequently betting on either team would have most in the poor house. The question is will West Chester have a hangover? Bloomsburg has shown (several times) it can hang with most teams -- when interested. Given this is somewhat of a rivalry game, look for the Huskies to show up tonight. This game has all the ingriedients to be a pretty chippy affair. No question WCU is favored, but Bloom just may get a back-door cover. Rams -10.5

    Shepherd at Kutztown - The Rams finally showed up -- albeit against a team that had lost 8 straight. The Golden Bears are on a 4-game losing streak, but that's fairly deceiving for this near all-freshmen team. Aside from recently getting blasted by East Stroudsburg (as expected), Kutztown played pretty well in losses to West Chester (9 points), at Bloomsburg (2 points) and at Millersville (16 points). These games aren't about this year for Bernie's young team. KU was getting hammered early this season but has been much more competitive of late. Make no mistake, with the PSAC version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in town, Kutztown can win tonight. Shepherd has much more experience and seasoned talent, but the Rams are beyond the word sporadic. This should be one of the more entertaining games of the night. Should the Bears pull the somewhat mild upset, they will find themselves - amazingly - in the mix for a conference tournament spot. Buyer beware betting this game. Inconsistent upperclassmen vs (mostly) true freshmen. Not a steady combination. Shepherd -6.5

    Lock Haven at Millersville - The Bald Eagles have reeled off an impressive 9 straight wins. Getting to No. 10, however, won't be easy. The Marauders are fresh off a huge win at West Chester -- and are very difficult to beat in Pucillo Gymnasium. Aside from being a huge PSAC East showdown, this could be an even bigger game in the race for an NCAA spot. Both teams are built very similar - big guards and solid post players. They even play similar styles. Without question the game of the night, it's nearly a coin toss. When it's this close, take the home team. Millersville ends the winning streak. 'Ville -2.5

    IUP at Clarion - What is it with IUP and these streaks? Clarion has lost 25 straight games to the Crimson Hawks. IUP kept its home streak alive against SRU but lost its run against California. Could another one be snapped tonight inside Tippin Gymnasium? It's possible. A year ago, IUP got caught off guard and was walloped at Clarion for the first 30 minutes before a furious comeback win. These Crimson Hawks are much different - and, fresh off back-to-back very physical and highly emotional games. IUP, already playing with a MASH unit, recently lost yet another player prior to the Cal game (rotation forward Josh Petteno). He's questionable for tonight (but seems more like doubtful). Joe Lombardi may pick up a hitchhiker on the way up if he's 6'0" or taller. Of course, he'd redshirt him. This is going to be a hard match-up for IUP. Clarion has size, size and more size -- highlighted by the post duo of Jeremy Thomas (6'6", 230 lbs) and Jayson Harris (6'9", 230 lbs). The Golden Eagles also feature a pair of 6'6" guards along with a senior point guard. Clarion's flaw is it isn't deep. But, obviously IUP isn't, either. The Golden Eagles are just 6-13 but have been in nearly every game. Much like Seton Hill's McKenna Center, IUP's visit typically draws one of the bigger and louder crowds of the season at Tippin. Without question, this is the 'don't be shocked' game of the evening. IUP wins. Barely. Hawks -2.5

    Seton Hill at Gannon - Can the Griffins slow the pace? Seton Hill isn't a team to take lightly. They are a strange team to play and have some good size and athletes, but have been hampered by the injury bug. The Golden Knights shouldn't have much trouble -- unless they are already looking ahead to Cal's visit on Saturday. Look for SH's zone to keep them in this for a bit tonight, but this game should be well over by the 25-minute mark. Gannon -15.5

    Edinboro at California - Interesting week so far for the Vulcans. California snapped a 21-game losing streak at IUP -- but didn't look too hot doing it against a banged up Crimson Hawks team. The trip to Erie is looming Saturday. In between IUP and Gannon, Edinboro visits Angelo's Dome. The Scots have dropped three straight (and got hosed at the end of the Slippery Rock game). Edinboro isn't a pushover anymore, but look for the Vulcans to fix the shooting woes they had in Indiana. California just has too much - and, wins - comfortably. Vulcans -17.5

    Mercyhurst at Slippery Rock - One thing we know for sure: there is some magic inside Morrow Fieldhouse. The Rock is 7-1 at home this year -- and 2-9 on the road. SRU is tough to beat in Morrow -- for a variety of reasons. The Lakers make the short drive down 79 with a 10-11 record. Neither team is in the NCAA conversation, but both will be tough outs in the conference tournament. They can both play really well some nights -- and fairly average on others. This could go either way. Take the home team in a close one. SRU -3.5
    You're certainly being generous in describing Ship as entrenched on the tournament bubble. I think the bubble has burst for Raiders. We are at least three losses behind both Shepherd and Mansfield, and I don't see either of those clubs losing more than the Raiders down the stretch, certainly not losing three games more. It's a time to hope we finish on a more positive note and go get 'em next season.

    WVSU is one of those "on any given night" teams. They are always loaded with "athletes" and when they are on, they can hang with and beat the best of them. Problem is that it's a pretty rare occurrence when they are all on at the same time.

    Would I be completely surprised if WVSU won this game? Maybe a little, but not gob smacked. Would I be surprised if WLU wins by less that 10? Not really. A 20+ point win? Again, it wouldn't surprise me.

    I saw somebody say that about the Wheeling game and West Lib won by 45 or something Lol...
    That's fair. But Wheeling has nowhere near the talent WVSU does. Whomever said that was merely banking on "rivalry magic" from Wheeling. No such luck on Saturday.

    And that's also why I don't try my hand at odds-making. I always think my team is in danger of losing until they don't.

    With WVSU having a home court boost, and the status of Spadafora unclear for WLU, I'd lead toward a pick-'em in this match-up.

    Sharp lines last night. You need to start handicapping some of the other Atlantic Region games with a preview. West Liberty at West Virginia State tonight. Lol

    My football lines are pretty accurate, too. Not my first rodeo. Lol. Nothing to be proud of.
