I need a run at a Loyola Mariamount here as they are trailing San Diego.
47 to 39. I laid five and a half. Now it's four and a half, but San Diego is laying it. Total 136 and a hook. With that, let's go out to the progressive guest line and find out how things are going with these conference tournaments. Over at the Westgate Superbook, he is Arthur DeCesar, risk manager at the Westgate Superbook, at Art Dice 21 on X. And he joins us in his weekly spot now here on Caching Out. So talk to me, Art. These smaller conference tournaments. Any crazy action did you guys see over there today? You know, it's great that we can talk this. We're on air and there's games going on. There's second half's being put up. This is like a great time of the year. I think when we get to these conference tournaments, these smaller tournaments, which obviously start this week. And then the big boys go next week. You see a lot of chalk. You see a lot of people betting on the chalk. A lot of people putting three and 14 parlay money lines together on favorites. Even a win conference is it feels like you don't see the long shots get a lot of love.
You see the chalky teams take action as far as to win the conference because we put up odds to win all these conference tournaments. How about the situation we have right now with Missouri Valley under? So since 2010, 90 and 49 to the under. Last three now, including today, Missouri Valley under are a 19 and four run. You know, we keep waiting for you guys to make this massive adjustment in us getting burnt. Do you believe there's going to be a big adjustment in the MVC? There should be, but I will say this about conference tournaments. The sharp guys, they always want to bet under. So we know that and that goes across all sports. But once we get to conference tournaments, not only that conference, but all conferences, it feels like the more we put these up, and first half, second half, whatever it may be, feels like under money seems to come in a lot more across all the conferences. No, that makes a lot of sense here. As it is now, a nine point game in my little Mary Mountain Ben is looking worse than worse.
Chatting with Arthur DeCease or Westgate Superbook, a risk manager at Art Dice 21 on X. How about as we get set for the conference tournaments coming up next week with some of the big boys? Are there any teams that you guys are looking at here that maybe you think or maybe you've taken some big bets on recently to win the championship? I think when you look at the big conferences, and you know, we had spoke last week about really the two teams who are on the top, top of like the, you know, five or six teams who can win, who really hurt us in the future book or Duke and Florida. Those are really the two big boy teams we need to avoid. I think a team that's got a little love here over recent, and listen, they're still 70 to one to win it, but I think people have started to kind of turn their eye maybe towards like an Arkansas, maybe look at like a little bit of a longer shot. You know, I mean, a team like St. John's, Texas Tech, who are in the 60, 80 to one rage really haven't gotten the love. Gonzaga, who is always a darling, and it feels like you always take money with Gonzaga.
Once the last time you saw Gonzaga at 60 to one, I mean, there's some of these teams that are a little bit further down the board, but I think out of that cluster of teams, even for Virginia in there, who's 80 to one, I would say Virginia and Arkansas are the two who have seen a little bit of love over the last couple of weeks. Oh, that is interesting. Completely opposite styles as well. One, get up and go, one slow down the pace. So that's kind of interesting that it's Coach Cal and Ryan Odom, the two that people are starting to back right now. Let's go over to baseball because while the major league baseball season's right around the corner, we've got the World Baseball Classic, and we've got a full-slated games coming up on Friday. What have you seen with the action early on with the WBC? The US is favored, odds on laying a price, then it's Japan, after that, the DR, anything really jump out to you. Yeah, I think when you look at the futures, you just mentioned the top three teams. You know, we were plus one 10, I think when we opened USA, minus 105. So we've taken money on USA. They're the ones that we would lose on in the future.
But outside of the super long shots, if Japan or the Dominican wanted be good for us, I think the games really haven't seen much yet, because you haven't gotten the great matchups yet. You know, as I said to you before we came on air, you got USA laying minus nine and a half runs tomorrow. But when you get games like Cuban Panama, which are Cuba's laying minus 170, you got games that are going to see some major leaders in there. And they're going to be a little bit tighter as far as the spread or money line goes. Those will see some action. I think the further we get down in the tournament, and we see the big boy matchups, USA playing Japan, or the Dominican, or whoever it may be, I think that's when you will see some legitimate action on those. Kind of like a regular baseball game, or maybe even a playoff baseball game. Chatted with Arthur DeCesar, risk manager, over at the Westgate Superbook, at Art Dice 21, you can find him over on X. In terms of the major league baseball season, you guys have had major movement with bets involving the Pittsburgh Pirates. That win total, which opened around 72 and a half, has ballooned up.
And then Conor Griffin, nationally rookie of the year. I believe you guys are now under two to one for him to win that award, which look, he's a superstar. He's got incredible talent. It looks like a Bobby Witt type player that should be able to make an impact. But he just got finished playing at AA at 19 years old. That number feels super short. What do you see on the action with the Pittsburgh Pirates? Yeah, it's really a team who we have focused on, being one of the teams we want to win on this year. And obviously you mentioned Griffin, the number one prospect in baseball for reason, it's been hitting a bunch of home runs in spring training, which is always going to peak, you know, peak. You know, Gail, wait, what's going on with this guy? So he's now under two to one. He's plus 180. You know, I had mentioned to you that we have tried to book to Pittsburgh. Now, we were a little bit higher on them on their win total. And we felt comfortable taking money early on their win total under. We said, you know what? We have no problem taking money. But, you know, we're eight and a half now on Pittsburgh.
I mean, so, you know, the market's kind of caught up with us. And we've had to try to stay out of the market even. So we feel good about Pittsburgh being good. We know Pittsburgh is going to be very popular probably as a team who's going to make the playoffs. You're going to get a nice plus price there. And I think even too, which we haven't seen much on division itself. But I think Pittsburgh eventually will see a little bit of money on them that win that in El Centro. I believe that will happen. Wait, did you see guys are at 80 and a half? Is that what you said are 78 and a half? 80 and a half. 80 and a half? We've moved eight wins on the Pittsburgh. Yes, sir. I'll say this though, Dustin, we opened higher. I want to say we opened 76 and a half. Okay. Okay, that makes sense. No, we were not as low as 72 and a half. Because like I said, we were comfortable opening them higher in the market. And instantly took under money. And you know, we've had these opens in Super Bowl weeks. So you're talking a good month. We've had our win totals up. So yeah, I mean, it's one of those things where we were like, hey, if people want to come in and bet the under here,
that's fine. We feel comfortable. And I did just double check. We are 80 and a half. Wow, that is incredible. Chatting with Arthur DeCesor, Westgate Superbook Risk Manager at Art Dice 21 on X. How about some of the other big movers maybe either over under whatever you guys are looking at behind the counter as far as baseball futures are concerned? Yeah, I think a team that we're very low on. And I think a lot of people are low on. And this is a team who's normally in the 80s and always competes. Another national team, Cardinals, you know, Cardinals 68. As a win total, that's obviously very low for a team like that. Rangers have seen very good sharp money. Took sharp money at 82 and a half, 83 and a half for now. 84 and a half on Texas. So that has been nothing but sharp moves for us. Another team, and I think a lot of people feel this way, but we feel comfortable booking action to feel that they're going to hit their win total over as the White Sox. You know, the White Sox are one of those team who, you know, I mean, let's say they've done a lot and have kind of moved up the ladder in that division where it's 68 and a half on them.
So we feel good on that. Braves, we feel good about two. I'm going over their win total. So those are kind of the teams that we're trying to book to need their overs. Listen, I like can happen, but we feel those teams who will exceed their win totals. How about in the NBA as Jason Tatum is going to make his season debut for the Celtics on Friday? I'm just curious. What kind of conversations did you guys have about moving the numbers? Not just when they open against Dallas on Friday night, laying a big number, but more importantly in the futures market. Because a bunch of books have made the Celtics the favorite at under three to one to win the Eastern Conference. Where do you stand on Boston? Not knowing what version or what capacity Jason Tatum is going to be at here at the end. Well, I'm going to sit here and raise my hand because we're one of those books as well. We now have the Celtics as we favorites to come out of the Celtics plus 240. Caves plus 275. Then you have the nicks and the pistons at four to one. So those are your four teams. Everyone else you can kind of just throw out.
You know, unless you believe in like the heater of a hornet, obviously the hornets have been a team now. They're the fifth choice. The hornets are sitting there at 20 to one. They've really shot up the board. But the thing with Boston, you always have to remember not only are they talented, maybe getting one of the 10 best players in the league back definitely, but it's Boston. They're always going to take money. So you can't be high on Boston because regardless of what happens with Tadeem, if he looks good, if he doesn't look good, you're going to get Boston money. He is Arthur DeCeasier. Go check him out over at the Westgate Superbook at ArtDice21 on X. I enjoy the chat every single week, my friend.

Dustin Sweetlesen here, you there hanging out the circus sports book in downtown Las Vegas. Broadcasting as always on Series XM channel 158 YouTube TV, the Vecin Watch app, and radio affiliates across the United States of God Bless America. There's a lot happening right now. We've got MBA, home stretch of the season, getting ready for the playoffs. We've got conference tournaments, the end of the regular season in college basketball for a lot of the big boys. And we've got the world baseball classic. We're going to try and cover as much ground as we can here before we get out of here for tonight. So with that, want to start looking at player prop matchups
that jump out to me for the card on Friday. We don't have props available in any of these games right now, which is so obnoxious and annoying. It's just a reminder, you're always playing on their terms for the sports book, like, not us, and I get it. Guys are on back-to-backs. We don't know start situations, but it's like, throw something up there and make us make a decision. Because right now, I'm literally clicking on every game. And the only one that has odds. And here's why is Dallas and Boston. Because Jason Tatum is making his return. Jason Tatum's point prop for his debut of the season is set at 12 and a half. I think with Jason Tatum coming back from a quick twitch injury with the Achilles, I would look at his PRA under. Now, that's not going to be an official play for me. But the points rebounds and assists for Jason Tatum is 20 and a half. I think he may get 10, 12 points, right? Hovering right around that number.
But I don't think the rebounds are going to be there. The assists could be there, but the rebounds. Maybe points and rebounds under. The way I'd look on Jason Tatum. Because I don't anticipate him doing a whole lot of running, breaking guys down off the dribble, isolation offense. I still think things are going to be funneled through Jalen Brown. So that is one direction. I'd look on the one game where your player props available. My goodness, like, there is nothing available for the rest of these games. But I'll give you the matchups that I am targeting right now. I need numbers. I need to know where we stand. But these are the best matchups for individual players. In terms of the stats, either best or worst, I should say, because unders are coming in. And unders might be the way we need to look. In fact, let me look. The unders we bet on Thursday. We went 0 and 1, 1 and 1. Oh, we only went 1 and 1. No, yeah, 1, no, 2 and 1. We went 2 and 1 with the unders. The overs, we went 1 and 1 and 2, 1 and 3, 2 and 3, 2 and 4. 3 and 4 with the overs.
So we did a little bit better with the unders than we did with the overs. And I think at this point in the year, we might need to just really focus on unders, even if they're low numbers. Because we were under on Davey on Mitchell for Miami earlier today. And that got home at under 16 and a half PRA. So here are the five matchups that jumped out to me looking at the card on Friday. And we begin with Indiana taking on the Lakers. Lakers on the back end of the back to back. And Indiana is a team that we know at this point. They're not playing really hard. But they have some guys that are at least competing. And Jeris Walker is a guy that has been doing pretty well for them. Has one of their main scorers. And this just so happens to be a good matchup for him. Taking on the Los Angeles Lakers. There's no points spread up right now. But the Lakers allow the most points per game. The eighth most assists per game to opposing small forwards. And on a back end of a back to back, I have to imagine a team that doesn't play a lot of defense is also going to struggle once again playing defense. And with Indiana coming to town, a team just like the Lakers, I usually like to bet overs in their games. I would look at Jeris Walker over on his player prop,
specifically the points rebounds are usually solid for him. So if you want to combine it on a PRA, I don't hate that. But I might just go points or points and rebounds together for Jeris Walker against the Lakers. The next matchup we're going to look at here is Devon Walker. Devon Walker, Devon Booker taking on the New Orleans Pelicans. Both teams on a back to back. Phoenix is laying six and a half at home. The totals to 24 and a half. Booker did play 32 minutes on Thursday night. He had 27, 6 and 2. But coming off a loss, I would think about backing Devon Booker. I'm a bit hesitant on a back to back. But it's a great matchup because New Orleans allows the most points. The sixth most rebounds. And the fourth most assists to opposing shooting guards. And they're already down a couple of guys with injuries because of that, I think Booker might be forced to play here. And it could be a spot where he goes off pretty early in this game and has a good matchup. So depending on the number for Booker, that is someone I'm considering here on Friday. Houston is hosting Portland.
Rockets are laying six and a half, you're total. 221 and a hook in that game. And there's two gay, two players that jumped out to me that I like unders on depending on what the props are. The first one is Jeremy Grant. As he's going to take off a really big front court for the Rockets to allow the fifth fewest rebounds per game, eighth fewest assists per game to opposing power forwards. Now Jeremy Grant's a guy that I usually like to back from a point's perspective. But the other stats, the rebounding, the assists, those are pretty inconsistent for him and his game. He's become a go-to guy offensively. But the last time he saw the Rockets, he played 29 minutes. He had three assists and two rebounds. That's pretty low. And I anticipated being low again because Shenguin underneath, you've got a bunch of guys playing the four and the three that have a ton of length. They use Terry Easton a lot sometimes as a two there. I mean, it's just a lot of defensive, physical guys. And Houston just doesn't give up defensively, especially at home.
The other player in this game that has a tough matchup is Drew Holiday. As Houston allows the fewest points, the sixth fewest rebounds and the second fewest assists per game to opposing point guards. So Drew Holiday hit or miss, you know, at 35 years old, he's still getting it done. He's a guy in certain spots I have looked to back. But the last time he saw the Rockets was on November 14th, he played 29 minutes. He had 13, 4, and 6. So that puts him at a PRA of 23. I would take his PRA if it's anything under 25, if it's 25-ish, I'd think about the under. And I think that's where it's going to be about 24, 25. And we're hated at 24, but I think at 25 would be the number I'm looking at to go under. And Drew Holiday here going up against the back court for Houston that can really get in your shorts if you're a point guard. And then the last matchup, we're going to go to the Clippers and the Spurs. San Antonio, back end of a back-to-back for them. They're laying seven and a half hosting the Clippers. Total's 224 and a half. That is a really bad matchup for John Collins.
San Antonio allows the sixth fewest points per game, 11th fewest rebounds to power forwards. I don't think he's going to do very much here against San Antonio on the road. John Collins is a guy at a power forward spot that I prefer to look at for points alone, similar to Jeremy Grant. And the last time that he saw San Antonio, I don't remember if I saw this earlier today. Yeah, I don't think he's faced him this year. I don't think the Clippers and Spurs, or he wasn't in the lineup when the Clippers and Spurs faced last time. So depending on the number with all these, there's no numbers up right now. Those are the five that jumped out to me the most. I'll have more plays up at visin.com slash picks, though, as we get closer. It's cashing out. I'm Dustin Sweetleson, visin. These sports betting network update in the first round of the WCC tournament. And Loyola Marymount just made it a four-point game. 54.50 San Diego leads. We laid five and a half with Marymount, which might have been a mistake. I think I misheard something. I was on a visin live Madduck Sports Radio with Patrick Mahor.
He mentioned a caller. Had a kid who played for, I thought he said Loyola turns out it was San Diego. And the kid who played for San Diego is around the program said that they have something for Loyola here and to bet them. But I thought I heard him say Loyola. I bet Loyola, but I like Loyola pre-flop anyway coming into this one because I thought San Diego, you know, with an interim head coach having fired Steve Lavon. I just thought this is a team that was looking already for the transfer portal to get their season over with. They went 11 and 20 on the year. There's not much they're going to do following this tournament. But apparently they want to keep their season alive because they're up by four with under seven minutes to go. So I was dead wrong. I don't think Loyola Marymount's going to end up covering this game. Oh, they called a foul on that. So San Diego is going to free throw line up by four to add to their lead. We do have the World Baseball Classic with a full slate coming up here on Friday. You know, Japan is your second shot in the board. They'll get things going very early. As they take on Chinese Taipei and Chinese Taipei coming off the loss to Australia.
It's a four and a half point spread. Japan's minus 1100. The total in the game is eight. I was going to do anything there. I would look at the under eight because I do think Japan's going to keep Taiwan at bay here. Offensively, the only fear you have is that Japan goes over. But I do have official plays that I do like in terms of these matchups that I do want to share with you here. If I can pull it up, I don't know where I just put that document. Sorry. But in the WBC, there's a few plays that I did add first. We're going to go with Colombia plus three and a half against Puerto Rico. Colombia's got Jose Cantana starting. They have some decent sticks in the lineup for this tournament. Donovan Salano, Geo Urcella, pretty good contact guys. Harold Ramirez, Catcher Hore Alfarro, like pretty solid lineup. And I think Puerto Rico lacks a lot of punch. You know, Aeronautos over there, but he's lost the step. And it's like Willie Castro, MJ Melendez, Martin Maldonado, Helio Ramos,
Seth Lugo is a very good pitcher as their ace. But I think that Cantana can keep them in this game. So because I think Colombia hangs, give me plus three and a half. Also, Panama plus one and a half against Cuba. Cuba doesn't have a lot of their best players. They couldn't get over here because of some of the stuff going on politically. And Panama is going to start Logan Allen who's not horrible for this tournament as a starter. So I think they're going to be able to put up some runs here. I'm going first five plus a half at even money on Panama. And then finally, Netherlands, Venezuela, over nine and a half. Netherlands doesn't have a lot of pitchers you know other than Kenley Jansen. In fact, they don't have anyone. Lineups pretty good. They'll be able to score a few runs here. But Venezuela is loaded. The Contreras brothers, Salvador Perez, Euhenio Suarez. You got Jackson Churio. Like, there's going to be a lot of runs here. And oh, did I mention you also have Ronald... Sorry, yeah, yeah. Ronald Cunia playing in this one. Welcome back to cash you now here on Vsind.
Vsports Benning Network. Rolling along here. It's cashing out. I'm Dustin Sweetlesen. Vsind. Vsports Benning Network. Thanks for making us part of you tonight, however you may be tuning in. Sirius XM channel 158 YouTube TV the visa watch app and radio affiliates across the United States of God bless America We are sweating out a play on Loyola Marymount and it does not look good. They're down 58 52 currently to San Diego I won't tell you what Rob Burgundy told me that means Bad joke shouldn't have said it. It just kind of came out of my mouth and unfortunately you're all there to witness it So let's see if Loyola can get back in this with 413 to go with that Let's go to the progressive guest line. Welcome in our buddy Colby Dantt you know sports gambling podcast network the college experience at At the Colby D on X and he joins us now in the progressive guest line How are things going man because you got to keep your head on a swivel this time of year Live action across the board pretty much all day the next few days. How have things been going with some of these smaller leagues?
Yeah, I mean, it's some some good some bad. I mean, I'm sweating out Hawaii right now I know you're sweating out LMU, but you know, I did have Holy cross money line and Lehigh made a half court buzzer beer I mean that was that was tough today that was tough Yeah, I saw and by the way it wasn't just a buzzer beater It was from his own end beyond half court and just heaves it for a prayer and Lehigh ends up winning again You know what it's officially March It's not officially March until you see that clock Taking down you're like, I'm good. I'm golden and it's taken away from you So with that Let's see if we can find some more bets along the way and let's begin with the A son Which for some reason I'm into some of these games in the A son this year Lipscomb laying four and a half against Florida golf coast every time I look at Florida golf coast All I think about is how they broke Georgetown and the Hoyas have never been the same
But you want a fade Florida golf coast and lay it with Lipscomb I Do and look if you caught Lipscomb earlier this year they played at Cameron indoor now the final score was like they lost by 20 something points, but That was a two point game at halftime and they put up a big number on a Duke defense. That's currently number one ranked in the entire country So ever since then they've had my attention. They're a veteran team now they do lack athleticism in F Florida golf coast is the more athletic team in this matchup But Florida golf coast I think is on the verge of moving on to a new head coach Very disappointing season considering the money they spent within that conference are currently 15 and 17 They've also had injuries Currently they have injuries So Lipscomb beat him by 15 the last time they played on January 23rd and really I just think Lipscomb sharp offensively You look at Florida golf coast are 250 first ranked defensively Lipscomb's a top 110 offense in the country Get ready for the backdoor cuts get ready for a lot of three point shots
But I'm all over I'm all over Lipscomb here. I think I think they get it done All right. Well, how about this next one here in the a son Queens of North Carolina Which is very confusing they're laying five and a half against the West Georgia wolves of Carrollton It's always so annoying when like you see Queens. Oh, it's probably Queens, New York. No, it's definitely North Carolina Queens has taken on West Georgia They're laying what four and a half in this one and you want to lay it or five and a half you want to lay it with the favorite in this spot I love Queens here. I actually took a took value on Queens to win the conference This is their first year eligible to win they they came up D2 just like West Georgia to tell you the truth and uh But West Georgia is a newer team. They're not eligible Queens is eligible. They're the most senior ridden team in this. They're the oldest team within the a son And if you look at what they got the guard wise I mean, I think this team is pretty legit for a mid major Uh, that man and Burman both guys at the guard spots super good Um, and to me, I think they're excited about this opportunity. They've been with them through the year
This isn't like a transfer team for the most part They've been with them where they weren't eligible now. They're eligible. I think they're excited about that West Georgia You know, there are recent D2 jump up nice when the opening round But I just think Queens is the team to play I like I said I took the future on them to win the conference just because uh That how old they are I'd like I think they're being slept on a little bit All right, let's now go Bradley and Val Parazo as you got you know Val Parazo playing on that back-to-back here And I just want to get the updated number. It is three West Gates moved to three three and a half at most other places total This won't shock you Out of the Missouri Valley from 141 and a half down to 135 at Caesars my goodness What do you want to do here with Valpo and Bradley? Yeah, I look I mean Valpo has been a nice team all year like especially as a dog role, but I'm on Bradley I think Bradley's kind of the one of the the name brands you can trust within the valley and uh, you know
It took the out the gate they they had their struggles You know like they they replaced a lot last year Dean one of their best guards or best players really over the past 20 years But jacquon Johnson has really emerged as that difference maker for Bradley They played top level defense. I think the defense I think the numbers are actually even inaccurate with their defense I feel like their defense has gotten better as the seasons go to long So uh that they're to me. I think they're the play here. They're the more physical team now don't get me wrong here We're gonna have to sweat this one because they don't blow teams out especially not Not uh when they step away from peoria. I think they'll get there though The way they play defense the way the guard play and they they've got a couple guys at a real difference makers That have emerged on this young team. So I like Bradley to get it done All right Colby dance our guests sports gambling podcast network the college experiences his show Get it wherever you get your podcasts. I'm a bit distracted 96 seconds to go loyal a merry-mount is down by three 60 to 57 And we get over time. Obviously. I like my battle hot more of laying that number
It doesn't look good. I need a three though huge possession coming up here And I think they're gonna settle for two. They're trying to draw a foul bad look this offense is horrible Oh my god, they don't even run since they they're just out here chickens with their head cut off Baby hook no good rebounded by merry-mount and they get the put back. It's a one point game 60 to 59 good god. I'm sweating this stuff forever All right, let's stay in the Missouri Valley Northern Iowa taken on Illinois State Draft Kings the only one with a number right now NIU is a minus one and a half one twenty five and a half is the total where you go in here Yeah, no nor did I was my play and DK had shot like I had pretty crazy odds for a team that was what the six seed in the conference I believe they were the odds on The second odds on favor to win the Valley conference and I listened to that and a lot of that has to do it Northern Iowa Being injured a lot during the regular season. They're getting hot at the right time here I know they didn't cover today, but they've still played pretty good over the past two weeks. I would say
And look there are top 10 defensive team In defensive rated team in the nation. I think they're currently number six ranked defense in the nation The offense 233 that's been a big issue for them I feel like getting the players healthy though some of their better players that were injured has been the difference here I like northern Iowa. I think they're gonna take down Illinois State I think northern Iowa is a dangerous dangerous team for this tournament. I agree with those odds Why did DK set those odds? I think they're the team to beat in that conference a lot of people say in Belmont watch out for northern Iowa I love it Belmont So he's got an undersized white point guard who can't go left Tradition like unlike any other Colby dance our gas sports gambling podcast network the college experience at the Colby D on X All right, let's go to some some of the other big boys coming up on the Friday card pretty solid slate actually with some of these games St. John's laying four and a half at seat and haul total anywhere from 136 and a hook to 138 How do you want to play this game? Yeah, you got this one is intriguing with the with the fact that St. John's playing for the one seed
Yukon still has to play at Marquette and Marquette is playing better basketball watch out for Marquette I mean, I don't think there are real You know contender to win the conference or anything Like they are playing better basketball. They just drilled Providence by 20 at Providence So St. John still very much alive because they're tied up, but I know Yukon has that tiebreaker Um, and then you have seat and haul who's what on the outside of the bubble think bracket matrix has them like third or fourth outside of the Of the tournament right now. So pivotal game you win this game You probably see a path for them to make the NCAA tournament provided and it'll lose in the first the game in the biggest tournament To me it's it's just a tough spot for for seat and haul because St. John's is kind of like a better version of them kind of a grind it out team Nothing sexy just just hey blue collar great defense good rebound and hard fouls And I think the Johnny's will be ready for it I so I'm gonna lay the four and a half Even though seat and haul in the more desperate spot I just think the Johnny's are better at each and every position and and just kind of muck up a game like like no one else
So uh, I I'm on the Johnny's the way they rebound the ball the way they play defense and patina's teams always get stronger I feel like as the season goes along. He's Colby Dan check him out sports gambling podcast network the college experience at the Colby D on x Good luck with the bets my friend tremendous as always we will chat again next week where it's gonna get hot and heavy around here Appreciate your best time of year, man Awesome stuff as always from our guy Colby It's getting dramatic down here in the WCC first round in Las Vegas San Diego just had like three opportunities eventually got fouled and they're at the charity striped They just hit the first free throw with 44.1 seconds remaining. They're up 61 59 I laid five and a half with Loyola Marymount. It was a mistake. It was a bad bet It's gonna end up giving us a losing night, but uh Hopefully they can hit a three on the other end here because That's the other free throws good by San Diego. It's a three point game 62 59 come on What does Loyola have these offensive sets the last couple minutes have been brutal by Marymount
All right, what are we gonna do here? Let's make a move. Let's do it early. Let's give us some time. Let's get a good look from three And I do they're taking up so much time to get set here and they're gonna drive into the lane Which doesn't help you could you down by three throw up a spin-around shot and miss and they just got that bull swatted away This is a joke.

Welcome back to caching out here on v sin these sports betting network It's caching out on dust and sweetle sin you're listening to v sin these sports betting network Loyola Marymount tries a three. It looks like it gets tipped and rebounded by San Diego 62 59 San Diego with the lead 16 second remaining. They just fouled San Diego This is gonna be a nice little upset here. I mean, it's 10 verse 11, but Loyola Marymount was lying five and a half San Diego is going to end up getting the win man I I blew that one. That was a stupid bet by me. So Not a good day eight nine on the day, but you know what Friday's filled with action And I am going to buck a trend once we get to the v sin morning bets here So with that, let's start looking ahead to the action as we've got the CAA first ground getting underway north eastern taken on North Carolina Tea north eastern one. They're only meeting in the regular season at home 85 to 74
Looking at this game though You know Not a lot of offense expected in my eyes when I look at These two teams defensively though They're worse on the defensive end than they are on the offensive end So that could make some leaky opportunities for the offense to get some easy looks potentially Billy Cohn the head coach for north eastern three and oh to the under on neutrals When the totals in the one fifties He's only nine and six against the spread as a neutral dog of six or less Monti Ross three and five cover than our number six and two to the over as a neutral favorite I would lean laying the short number um Or taking the short number with north Carolina A and T But I am not going to touch that game the next one We're going to go to the big south where it's windthrob laying four and a half Against Charleston Southern and right now that total anywhere from one sixty one and a half to one sixty two and a half um And this is a spot where I kind of like windthrop they split the regular season windthrop one by four southern one by two
Windthrop in the series though is on a five and three against the spread run This the under is six and two going back to 2023 But the head coach for Charleston some uh southern Nim Lev is o and four against the spread on neutral sites while mark prasser for windthrop five and one covering the number as a neutral favorite of six or less And looking at this match up Charleston Southern pretty good Offensively shooting the three and shooting the two ball But I do think the experience for windthrop on the sidelines going to end up being an x factor here I'm going to lay the four and a half with windthrop in this spot Florida golf coast is taking on lip scum That's a weird one to say lip scum And I just think about Florida golf coast literally breaking the Georgetown basketball program This number open three. It's up to four four and a half at some places Total staying pat at one fifty and a half. I'm going to go under the one fifty and a half on this game Because both coaches trend to the under Patrick Chambers the head coach there at Florida golf coast
You remember him from when he was at Penn State he is um Let's see two and one of the under as a neutral dog of six or less Six and O to the under in the month of March horrible covering the number is Patrick Chambers So I think about laying the points with lip scum if I was going to do anything from the side And then Kevin Carroll ten and eight to the under as a favorite With lip scum so give me the under one fifty and a half in that game Missouri Valley and I understand I am going up against a historical trend on the rise right now as under is hit once again in the Thursday action But I'm looking at this matchup with Murray State and Illinois Chicago And I think we're going to see some points Because Murray State has a pretty good offense here. They're super efficient from two There's 69 in the nation and adjusted offensive efficiency We are looking at a point spread of oh Fandals down to a half so we're close to a pick them in this game Um total sitting at one forty eight. You know what one forty seven and a half up to one forty nine and a half pretty wide range here
Murray states five and two against the spread the last seven meetings here Illinois's head coach Robert Eson is one and four against the spread on a neutral court But four and two to the over one and three against the spread But three and one to the over as a neutral court underdog and then Ryan Miller on the other side for Murray State He's four and one to the over on neutral courts I'm going to do it. I'm going to go up against this trend. I'm going over one forty seven and a half and UIC and Murray State We've got the next one up here Let's see Austin P taking on steps in in the a-sun quarter finals and right now your number Is we're on the move we open ten Draftkings has Austin P minus nine and a half Fandall has it ten and a half Caesars has it eleven and superbook has it eleven and a half so literally Every possible number is out there for you there the totals wide spread as well. We open one forty eight and a half Bandles at one forty nine and a half
Caesars at one fifty and a half Ben MGM's at one fifty one and a half and the West gates at one fifty two and a half This thing is crazy. It's all over the place. I like the over one fifty and a half Which is available at draft Kings and Caesars right now had to make sure it was still out there But I'm looking at this game and Donnie Jones the head coach for for Stetson for no to the over on a neutral court when the total is in the one Fifty's ten and five to the over in the month of March nine and sixty the over as a neutral dog And then Austin P Corey Gibson eleven and seven to the over when the totals in the one fifty So I'm going to be on the over as far as that game is concerned Denver and North Dakota Going at it here Denver was an over team for us all year later in the season some unders started coming in But I think this is a spot where we're going to go over they split the regular season meetings 93 86 98 79 That's because Denver's all offense no defense
They don't play any defense North Dakota doesn't play very much defense the head coach for Denver Tim Burke Stracer Eight and three to the over as a favorite 19 and eight to the over overall And then Paul Sather the head coach for North Dakota He is six and three to the over when the total is in the one sixty So I'm going to go over in that game there We've got St John's taken on seat in the hall as we close out the big East regular season this weekend St John's won their last meeting 65 to 60 right now in the market We are looking at a game of St John's laying four and a half total anywhere from one thirty six and a half up to one thirty eight St John's won its last two since losing to you come Staten Hall's off a win at Xavier Staten Hall's actually six and two against the spread since 2023 against St John's The under in this series though is on a 16 and six run dating back to 2016 Patino in this spot with on the road with the total in the one thirties is two and oh against the spread two and oh to the under
He's eight and four against the spread as a road favorite of six or less But I'm not willing to lay that number here on the road at Staten Hall in this rivalry Instead, I'm looking at the under I think the defense for both of these teams and a bit of a slower pace with Staten Hall's the home team ends up getting us under 138 which is the best we can do right now in the market here at circa You also got UCF at West Virginia coming up here on Friday This is a tough one because my initial reaction is I would love to back UCF the problem is I think the market is telling you that West Virginia is the play So West Virginia won the the the last meeting 74 67 in Orlando earlier in the year UCF has lost their last two games after beating BYU in Provo and all of a sudden that win at BYU You doesn't look all that impressive a couple weeks later West Virginia's lost four or five, but they also beat BYU at home Metrically offensively UCF looks really fun and awesome some seniors on this roster But Johnny Dawkins as a road dog of six or less is only 35 and 37 against the spread
He's actually 38 and 34 to the under in that role He's also only 18 and 30 covering 27 and 19 to the over As are in when the road total on the road when the totals in the 140s Ross Hodge 9 and 4 to the under as a home favorite for West Virginia 3 and 1 against the spread as a home favorite of six or less I am not betting this right now, but you can lay three at circa that is the way I'd look I'd lay three with West Virginia Even though I'm way higher on you see F That's the college basketball now. Let's quickly look at the world-based ball classic as I have a few plays that I Punched up at vison.com slash picks earlier today Columbia plus three and a half runs versus Puerto Rico Jose Cantana is starting and I think Columbia actually has some decent bats in the lineup the Donovan Solano Geo or Shela some guys who can make contact here as they take on Seth Luko and a Puerto Rican squad that I think is depleted because of injuries And guys who couldn't get insurance to play in this event so because of that I think A weaker Puerto Rican team could have some issues with Columbia who has a legit major league starter in Cantana on the bump
I'll take the plus three and a half runs I'm also going to go with another underdog, but I'm going to go first five Panama plus a half run against Cuba It's even money. I don't really know a ton about Cuba. All I really know is they didn't have a few players Make their way over here because some political things going on here They're only major league starters. Yereo Rodriguez. They've got Yoa Mancana and a 44-year-old Alexi Ramirez in this infield Panama's actually solid Logan Allen is starting have decent bullpen options in Jaime Berea and Paulo Espino Havi Guerra spent some time in the majors as well And I think they'll be able to manufacture runs with Jose Caballero Johann Carmago and the Carmago in this lineup and Edmund Sosa I like Panama. I think they have the pitching edge and I think the lineup will be able to hang with Cuba And then finally Netherlands Venezuela over nine and a half both lineups are loaded Netherlands doesn't have a lot of pitching outside of Kenley Janssen But they do have some bats albese bowgarts drew Jones the son of Andrew Jones And then on the other side, Venezuela's lineup is crazy. The Contreras brothers Salvador Perez
Ronald Acunia Jr. Jackson Turio. They've got speed. They've got power. They've got contact I think we're going to get a lot of runs in Netherlands and Venezuela That'll do it for us here on caching out but stay with Vecin all day long And I will see you next time right here on Vecin these sports betting network The average cost of a D wine Virginia is $11,352 and 47 cents Drinking and driving costs more than your drinks Learn more at what's the damage not org Brought to you by Virginia DMV The Toyota Tundra and Tacoma are built to keep going blending rugged muscle with precision engineering all supported by Toyota's time tested legacy of dependability Step into a Tundra and feel the unyielding capability with the available iForce Max engine Tundra puts out impressive power torque and towing Performance and the roomy high-tech cabin keeps you connected on the go or take a look at Tacoma made for drivers who push past the path agile
