He also has a Wednesday is on Arkansas getting 2.5 to Seton Hall. Rivers says:<\/p>\n<p>Seton Hall may be a better overall team\u00a0even with Jeremy Hazell gone for a while but we are going to see\u00a0this Pirate team take time to re-establish itself. They immediately\u00a0fell to Clemson and Xavier\u00a0before outclassing St. Peter\u2019s in that last game a full week and a half ago. The program fired Bobby Gonzalez at the end of last season and right now is in a\u00a0bit of a state of flux after losing their star scorer and blue chip athlete. I\u2019m not saying it\u2019s the end all or that this team won\u2019t find itself at some point but right now to be laying points on a neutral site in Kentucky like this against an Arkansas team that still has a little something\u00a0seems a bit steep.<\/p>\n<p>Herb Pope and Jeff Robinson are quality big men for the Hall and should hold their own. But they are up against John Pelphrey\u2019s 5-1 Razorbacks who I admit are far from being an elite team or even a good team but Rotnei Clarke can shoot the ball with the best of them and I\u2019m not sure that\u00a0the Hall will adapt well to this spot just yet. Plus the Hogs\u00a0have only lost once and it was against a decent enough UAB team by five points. These guys have also defeated Oklahoma by 10 and Troy by 15 so even if Pelphrey\u2019s pupils are predicted to be in the bottom of the SEC they are good enough to take care of business against a banged up Pirate team that is struggling right now to stay afloat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information: <\/strong>Rivers says I bombed away and nailed my biggest play on the Patriots on Monday night and have another one today. A 500,000* is back and coming from the hardwoods today in this non-conference clash between a pair of perennial top 25 teams in Vanderbilt and Missouri. Another outright or a burial just like the Jets and Pats and no in-between at all. Bonus 200,000* NC Greensboro and Maryland to round out the 2-0 sweep! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/index.php?Page=Packages\">Click now to purchase<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Urban Meyer announced his resignation\u2014again, as head coach of Florida.
