This is an 8* play on Nevada.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based on a few different factors:
As note that Nevada is 4-2 in all tournament games already this year and a near-perfect 3-1 ATS against good offensive teams which average 77-plus points per contest, while Iowa State is just 4-5 ATS in non-conference contests this season and only 4-5 ATS in its last nine against good offensive teams which score 77-plus points per contest.
The bottom line: Nevada comes in with nothing to lose. In fact, the Wolfpack haven't lost in nine straight games, taking down the MWC tournament last week. Nevada has four players that average between 14 and 20 PPG. Marcus Marshall averages 19.8 PPG on 42.5 percent shooting. Iowa State is one of the top three-ball shooting teams in the nation, hitting 40.2 percent, ranked 14th overall, but we think this is a matchup that favors the underdog today. Nevada has an offense that's capable of holding its own and while we're not going to call for the outright victory, all signs point to this one coming down to the wire. Grab the points, play on NEVADA.
