NCAA Basketball - Monday, February 19th


It's Big Monday in College Hoops and it's time to make some last minute cash before the tournament. Lately, the public has been getting rocked and the SixTalkingHeads NCAA plays continue to flourish. Since tournament time is around the corner, make sure you don't go crazy over the next couple of weeks. It's now more important then ever to stick with the SixTalkingHeads Star system! It's been one wild ride....let the fun continue!

3* Play on Villanova Wildcats +3 over Marquette

Marquette hasn't been playing like the Marquette we knew from the beginning of the year. Prior to last week, Marquette was the team that everyone had in their elite eight come tournament time. However, considering their most recent play, we realize that Marquette is fading faster then a gambler's bank account who doesn't play our games. Although Nova lost a close one last Saturday to G-Town, we expect them to pull the road upset here today. Nova's 6-2-2 ATS mark in their last 10 road games vs. a winning team above .600 seals the deal. It doesn't hurt knowing the Golden Eagles are also just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 vs. the Big East. I guess this picture is why they call it Big Monday! Wildcats Roar!

3* Play on Wisconsin-Green Bay +5.5 over Butler

Who is Wisconsin GB? This year, they sure aren't the Cinderella team of a few years ago, but Wisc-GB is good for a few plays a season. The Phoenix are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a dog of 0.5 to 6.5 pts while the Bulldogs are just 2-6 ATS following a game with a loss. Considering they lost to Southern Illinois at home on Saturday, today's game allows us to pull in the cash! Butler loses again!


4* Play on Kansas State +5.5
over Kansas


Remember on Saturday when I recommended Nebraska plus the points over Kansas? Not only did Kansas cover the spread in the 2nd half alone, they won by 53 points! Kansas State wa
s destroyed by Kansas on the road earlier this year by 27, and have been waiting for this chance at revenge. After winning by 27, we were a little surprised to see the Jayhawks only favored by 6 points as the line opened last night. Once we looked at the trends, we knew why. The Wildcats come into today's contest with a 5-0 ATS mark in their last 5 home games. They are also 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall and 8-2 ATS vs. the Big 12. I know it's only Monday, but K State grabs my NCAA Game of the Week! We smell an upset.....K State does the impossible.


Best of Luck,

Pikes
