DIA and DIAA Games And Picks
While we don't have an enormous number of DIA and DIAA games, they are meaningful.
The Liberty Conference has its final, plus a series of challenge matches between teams with similar records. It's a very good way to just cap off the season. It's mostly a pick 'em game for the final (Northeast vs BC) but we've decided not to sit on any fences this week.
Penn State at Ohio State is a very tough pick and could go any way. It all depends on how these two teams feel after falls that were good, but could have been better.
Lindenwood vs Davenport is a very important Mid-South game, and we get the feeling Davenport is steadily improving. Enough to beat Lindenwood? Maybe not yet.
In the DIAA games, we haven't spent a lot of time on the Ivy League because it's going to be Dartmouth's again. The Big Green has been unstoppable.
Kennesaw State takes on Tennessee in the other conference final, in the SCRC, and we just have a feeling we'll see an upset there.
The NCRC continues to be a crapshoot. Western Washington pulled off a big win over Oregon last week. Head Coach Paul Horne said the team is young, but steadily improving, and that seems to be the case. Can they garner revenge over their earlier loss to Oregon State? With the game being played in Bellingham, it looks as though the Vikes might pull this one out.
By the way, last week we were 11-3 in our DIAA picks, and 16-3 in our DIA picks, including going 4-for-4 in the Big Ten Finals weekend.
