CBB 12/20; Kent State

Game of note that I felt the need to make a post for. This Kent State squad is one of my favorite follows and I see a lot of value today. The Golden Flashes get buckets and I would be pretty surprised to see them held below 80 here. The team total over 82.5 is a must play for me. That being said, that correlates to the full game over of 163.5 as if Kent gets there way with tempo, this game is going up and down the court the whole time. My blind cap would be Kent - 3 or so, especially considering its winter break and there are zero students in the building for home court advantage in Umass favor. To recap and listed in order of confidence:

Kent State TT O82.5 

Full game OVER 162.5 (-125 on my book, play up to 164.5)

Kent State pick -115 

correlated parlay: Kent State ML/O162.5 (+235) & Kent TT O82.5/O162.5 (+125) 

Also really like Miami Ohio redhawks on the ML as a parlay anchor. -10 on the spread - I do think they win by double digits but they are a very confident ML to get some extra juice. One of the better mid-major squads this year that many people have yet to see/hear about.

Looking at the 3/4 slate. Want to take the over in Unc/Ohio St but seeing the scoring in this first game is scaring me away from that total. Tar Heels ML -170 & -3.5 are the side to be on imo. 

Wyoming/Grand Canyon - wyo solid squad at home. Trust them to get it done -2.5 or ML there and my spreadsheet seems to love the OVER 146.5. Seeing 146 so will buy to 145.5 at -120 on local but I like any total over the number up to 148 here. 

Tar Heels ML -170 

Wyoming ML -145 / -2.5 (-110) / full game total O145.5 (-120)

Well Umass tanked the total. 24 1H points.. Kent was definitely the side. Frustrating there
