About Last Night

Midweek MACtion continues!
The Mid-American Conference rarely disappoints, and it certainly did not on Wednesday. All 3 road underdogs – Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan and Miami (OH) – all won outright. That was just fine with the Pickswise college football experts, who went 5-1 with their picks (2-1 ATS and 3-0 O/U).

Texas takes down Gonzaga
Gonzaga doesn't lose often, but that is what happened in its third game of the season. The Zags fell to Texas 93-74 on Wednesday, watching UT guard Tyrese Hunter go for 26 points while committing twice as many turnovers as the Longhorns (20 to 10). Our college basketball analysis will be going strong throughout the season.

Warriors waste 50 from Curry
Stephen Curry scored 50 points, but it was nowhere near enough as Golden State lost at Phoenix 130-119. In the Eastern Conference, Boston continued to assert itself as the team to beat by going on the road to blow out Atlanta 126-101. Meanwhile, we correctly picked New York (+145 on the money line) to win at Denver.
