Lax Pick Em’ : Week 14

[JeremyCuse]

I was contemplating between Loyola and Colgate and of course I picked the wrong one.. lol

I had the same discussion with myself and ultimately stayed away from both. Felt like Gate was the best of the but man these early round games can be a crapshoot

Michigan +3.5 v JHU

DARTs...and sinking fast

[Powellfan]

Michigan +3.5 vs Hopkins - I think Hopkins wins, but with Michigan's face-off group, I think they keep it close. They lost by four earlier in the season, but have to imagine they'll be more desperate this time out.
Princeton +1.5 vs Yale - Given they played a week ago and the Tigers won by seven, this line seems ... curious. The Bulldogs are really struggling with face-off health and Priceton went 21-27 last week. Perhaps Yale is more desperate this weekend, or Vegas knows something about their fogo's health status, but this seems too obvious.
Syracuse +1.5 vs Duke - Go 'Cuse!

Will save last pick for the weekend.

It's too bad the Ivy Tournament and the ACC Tournament overlap so much on Friday. Wish they could have figured out a way these games aren't played at the same time.

 

[FloridaCuse]

St. Joe's -3
Princeton +1.5
Syracuse +1.5
saving one for later

 

[JeremyCuse]

34-17 YTD

Tuesday schedule is very tempting. Loyola, Colgate and Jax all really stand out.

Michigan +3.5 - Got burned with them vs Rutty, but getting 3.5 here against a team in Hop they were battling until a meltdown late is to good to pass up.

Cuse +1.5, SU with 2 weeks off against a team they historically play well and getting points? Again just can't pass it up.

Pending the remaining two for now.

Michigan +3.5
Cuse +1.5

Been going back and forth on St. Joes and High Point all day.
Can't get past Umass getting blasted by High Point last week, and St. Joes only favored by 3

Going with St. Joes -3
4th pick pending.

 

[JeremyCuse]

For those of us who took St. Joes, prepare yourself for a frustrating non cover. Umass goalie has stolen a bunch in the 1st half and St. Joes is clinging to a one goal lead.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Brutal non-cover or push by St. Joes.

 

[upperdeck]

vill off to a fast start over Denver.. not good for the bubble teams.

Yup Nova up 6-2

 

[JeremyCuse]

Hopkins boat racing Mich early. Less then optimal when u too Michigan to cover

 

[upperdeck]

i wish it was easier to live bet lax.

I took High Point to cover, down 4-0 after one. smh

 

[Orangello]

ND -1.5
Cornell -2

2 more to come

 

[JeremyCuse]

I took High Point to cover, down 4-0 after one. smh

I really liked Hight Point today to. High powered O can kick in at anytime though, your still in it.

4-3 now. I was looking at St. Joes, High Point or Manhattan. Went with St. Joes who had a push until a brutal final minute (missed open net, two penalties called on St. Joes etc). High Point should cover.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Denver ain't covering.

Hop looks real bad.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Crease violation waives off Denver tying goal.

 

[OrangeinBoston]

I thought all the cognoscenti were touting Denver to take a top spot away.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Denver ain't covering.

Hop looks real bad.

Hop offense completely dominated. Lack of an elite dodging attackmen is their Achilles heal and Melendez being a shadow of himself pretty much the entire year

 

[JeremyCuse]

I took High Point to cover, down 4-0 after one. smh

High Point covered but man tough loss to fall by 1. Was a fan of them, Manhattan and St. Joes today. One of those weeks when the one you go with doesn't cover. Michigan coming back and winning out right makes the day a decent one.
