Here is a brief rundown of the rules for anyone that wants to play and missed the first game. I encourage people to keep joining. You’ll join the 0-1 ranks, but then again you’ll be joining myself, Brian, and a host of others who stupidly picked against the Cats in the 1st game.

  • On Game Day, I will post the official line we will be using for the game.
  • In that thread, post your pick against-the-spread for the game that night.
  • Make sure you use the same username for every pick (I know some of you are registered, if you aren’t this is a good reason to do so to make it easier). Also, make sure you provide your email so that I can contact the winner at the end of the year.
  • Anonymous entries will not count.
  • Entries posted after the game starts will not count.
  • If you do not provide a pick for the game, it will be marked as a loss in the standings.
  • If you are away and can’t make a pick in the thread, you can email me your pick. Email me at clane2787@gmail.com and I will try to email you back ASAP with the line (again, it must be emailed before the start of the game).
  • The winner at the end of the year will win a prize (TBD) and I promise it will be something good. I’m not going to be lame like that. I’m searching eBay for cool Villanova stuff as we speak.
  • In the event of a tie, the poster with the best BIG EAST record (regular season) wins. If still tied, the best Big 5 record wins. If still tied, the best OOC record wins. If still tied, we may have to do multiple prizes.

The official line we will be using today is Villanova -14.5. Please post your pick ATS in the comments below, and if you really want to, a score choice as well.

Good luck everyone!

Yikes. I honestly thought the spread was going to be closer to 20, in which case, again I would have taken George Mason to cover.

But now that we’re under 15, I don’t know if I can go against the Cats twice in a row.

I’ll be back soon with a final pick…

Tough to pick against George Mason with nearly 15 points, but I’ll take Nova to control the 2nd half and win by 16.

Close game, GMU stays around 8-10 for most of the contest. With ‘Nova pulling away late for a W and the cover but very close to the spread.

88-62 ‘Nova

Nova comes out strong and leads by double digits at half because of our pressure on their young guards. Nova Covers 86-68

Just a friendly reminder to use the same username every week. I see a lot of new ones already which is great to see, but also want to remind those who entered last week to use the same one you used the first time.

Judging from Mark’s comments on the game thread, his pick is George Mason +14.5. If I hear from him it will be different.

Just to tell everyone check out espn. Mouph has left Puerto Rico and we will be without him for the entire tournament… he has a viral infection.

I’ll go with Villanova covering, anyone see this game online anywhere?… unfortunately comcast doesn’t give me espnu and I thought the game would be on espn360, but it isn’t

I think it will be close. My instinct is to say that we won’t cover. BUT, I got burned the last time I did that.

Nova to cover.

Villanova will cover.

Score will be 80-something to 60 something.
84-67 smells about right

Okay people. I’m going against the Cats once again. I’ve got Nova winning, but GMU covering. Hopefully another Nova blowout entails!
