Half assed wagers

I went 1-2 yesterday, as Utah State held on to lose by 5, and Michigan State roared back to turn a blowout into a respectable two point loss.

Today the top seeds play, and I've adjusted my strategy. I'm betting first half lines in mismatch games, with the idea that the big teams can jump out to early leads, but may blow these leads when they play their subs in the 2nd halves. On that note, I have Kansas(-13)over BU,

North Carolina(-9.5)over Long Island, and Syracuse(-7)over Indiana State. All these are first half lines. The full game lines for these games are KU(-23), UNC(-17.5), and

Syracuse(-12.5).

I thought about taking Duke as well, but their first half line (14) seems a bit heavy relative to the game line...or does it? It's about the same as KU...and Duke is up 28-16, with 6 minutes left in the first half.

None of my games have happened yet, but it looks like I could have followed the same strategy with Ohio State and Duke and been successful. Hopefully the games I actually bet will do as well.
