Dave made a great comeback last week while my mind obviously was still drowning in Jameson and Guinness.<\/p>\n
Dave last week:<\/strong> 6-1-3 Here are this week’s picks:<\/p>\n Friday, November 19<\/strong><\/p>\n Maine at Boston College<\/strong> Jim’s pick: BC hasn’t lost two games in a row so I think the Eagles will come out on top in game one on home ice. Northeastern at Providence<\/strong> Jim’s pick: Who thought at season’s beginning I’d be confidently picking Providence in this one? Merrimack at UMass-Lowell<\/strong> Jim’s pick: This is a banged up Lowell team facing a red hot Merrimack team. Boston University at UNH<\/strong> Jim’s pick: This series has split written all over it, so I’ll go with the home team in each of these games. Saturday, November 20<\/strong><\/p>\n New Hampshire at Boston University<\/strong> Jim’s pick: Like I said, home teams in this series. UMass-Lowell at Merrimack<\/strong> Jim’s pick: See last week’s picks. Merrimack + home ice = I pick the Warriors. Providence at Northeastern<\/strong> Jim’s pick: It’s about time NU finally wins at home. Sunday, November 21<\/strong><\/p>\n Maine at Boston College (1 p.m.)<\/strong> Jim’s pick: Black Bears win game two of the series to make it a pleasant bus ride back to Orono. Tuesday, November 23<\/strong><\/p>\n Vermont at UMass<\/strong> Jim’s pick: I think this is finally the night that the Minutemen get into the win column. Brown at New Hampshire<\/strong> Jim’s pick: Wildcats roll in non-league battle. Dave made a great comeback last week while my mind obviously was still drowning in Jameson and Guinness.
