    2 Team Teaser Yes/No

    I'm in the hole quite a bit and I need a good win.
    I'm thinking of taking a 2 team teaser of:
    NBA: San Antonio +3.5 vs Phoenix
    NCAAF: Cincinnati + 0.5 vs Tulane

    What do you think?

    Thanks for the feedback.

    I'm fairly certain that Cincinnati will beat Tulane. (spread = 6.5 pts) I guess I could just lay the points.

    Memphis is going against one of the worst defenses in the country with Tulsa, and six of Tulsa's last seven games have gone OVER. Maybe a play on the over teased down to 54. even that seems pretty iffy. The spread teased down is Memphis -17.5 or Tulsa +31.5, neither of which seem too appealing..

    Anyone have any good plays to couple with this Cincinnati play tonight?

    Earlier posters have it right - never tease NBA

    Teasing across 0 is bad, teasing to +0.5 is worse. You're giving the books a free point as they game cannot end in a tie.

    You shouldn't really be teasing NBA or College Football especially NBA plenty of people tease College Football but i'm not a fan of it.

    The points simply don't mean as much as they do in the NFL.

    Yeah, I know you shouldn't tease across zero. I just didn't want to lay the 6 points. (even though they will probably cover)
    I always had great luck teasing college football. 15-16 overall last weekend, and that was an NFL loss.

    I'm in a hole thanks to the damn Royals (gut said pick San Fran.) and Panthers.

    I'll trash the teaser, reevaluate and put together a few tickets for sat.

    I'll probably still go Cincy -6 tonight (even with their QB issue). I just don't think Tulane has the offense to keep up with them. Tulane is especially weak over the top as well, advantage Cincinnati.

    thanks for the advice guys!
