Bettin' is a Habit - 1/26

We here at B.I.A.H don't fancy ourselves gamblers, but we do know a lot of people with crippling addictions to gambling. So why not help enable them, right? Semi-regularly, we will provide you a couple of picks and one lead-pipe-lock that you can take to the bank. But if you take our advice and don't win any money, you aren't allowed to come bash are knee-caps in.

Iowa (8-11, 1-6) at Penn State (10-8, 3-4)
Penn State is firmly planted on the bubble and needs every win they can get. Iowa, as usual, is the Big-Ten bottom-feeder. After losing two close games against top-25 opponents, Penn State should be able to easily beat the Hawkeyes. Both teams don't score a lot of points, so I like the under in this one.

Pick: Under 131


Delaware (10-9, 5-4) at William & Mary (6-14, 2-7)
The First time these teams met, The Blue Hens blasted W&M by 13. This one is in Williamsburg, but the Tribe has lost two in a row and 9 out of their last 11. Surprisingly enough, the Blue Hens are the underdogs in this one, so I'd definitely take that pick.

Pick: Delaware +2.5


San Diego State (20-0, 5-0) at BYU (19-1, 5-0)
This is the marquee game of the night, the week and possibly the month. Roughly 26 NBA scouts will be in attendance for this one and it should be the most entertaining game of the night. The question everybody will be asking is: can SDSU stop Jimmer Fredette? I don't think you can stop him, you can only hope to contain him. If the Aztecs can, I think they have a better team than the Cougars and should be able to win this.

Pick: San Diego State +5

Our Record: 2-5
Our first two days haven't gone too well, but I think our luck is about to change. Plus, people don't just become good sports bettors over night, it takes time. I think.
