Pittsburgh Vs Louisville Tonight! News, Opinions, Stats and IN-GAME Discussion

**Cougar Bait** · 10-02-09, 10:17 AM

I'll be on Pitt. I love Butler and Louisville's run D has not been stellar. I'd take it before it goes to 7, just my opinion. But, I haven't looked at the over. GL with whatever you play.

**A Mayland** · 10-02-09, 10:19 AM

Thanks for your input...I got screwed last week when I bet Pitt...I guess that's why im a little hesitant haha

**Cougar Bait** · 10-02-09, 10:22 AM

Yeah I was on them too. I still think they could have easily covered that game. It was a tough loss, letting it slip away like they did in the 4th. Tonight will be different I suspect.

**Hnguyenphi1981** · 10-02-09, 10:53 AM

I like pitts tonight as well. Both dogs covered yesterday, which entices me to pick the first favorite of today's game.

**capattack** · 10-02-09, 11:21 AM

I don't know why, but i'm leaning towards Louisville with the points at home.... also weather will be a factor tonight...

**PorkChop** · 10-02-09, 11:39 AM

Louisville ML. Just like UAB last night.

**bigcat1** · 10-02-09, 11:42 AM

I didn't have UAB ML last night but I did take the points. I will be taking the points tonight on Louisville as well. Also like Utah St + points as well.

I"m starting to really live the over as well.

**mtneer1212** · 10-02-09, 03:00 PM

I'm watching some horse racing in Lexington (about 70 miles from Louisville) and it was very rainy this morning, but the weather has cleared, the breeze is blowing, and it looks like a nice day.

**pimike** · 10-02-09, 03:02 PM

Panthers won 41-7 last year, They have their key players returning I expect them to win by a TD or more here again.

**Dbldown11** · 10-02-09, 03:08 PM

Pitt. is an easy play in my eyes

**crackerjack** · 10-02-09, 03:50 PM

Pitt is the most unpredictable team in college football. Which team shows up is anyone's guess...

**Dbldown11** · 10-02-09, 03:52 PM

Pitt hasnt really been unpredictable this year...theyve played solid in every game, just lost a tough game on the road to a decent team

**Dbldown11** · 10-02-09, 03:53 PM

However Louisville IS GARBAGE with zero D

**jackpot269** · 10-02-09, 04:04 PM

Still looking at this game will chime back later GL

**infamousbacardi** · 10-02-09, 04:05 PM

I'm thinking about a Utah State +30 and Louisville over 45 teaser. What do you guys think?!

**pimike** · 10-02-09, 04:05 PM

Money in the Bank PITT wins here.

**dbldown** · 10-02-09, 04:06 PM

Pitt may be unpredictable, but you can pretty much count on Louisville sucking it up.

**og4667** · 10-02-09, 04:53 PM

If the game looks to easy to pick it probably is. Louisville is the play here folks. With the public on Pitt I am even more intersted in Louisville.

Pittsburg -6.5 @ Louisville

NOTES: As indicated by the movement of the line, the betting public is favoring PITTSBURGH in this game. The betting public is correct when moving the money line in PITTSBURGH games 28.6% of the time over the past 3 seasons. (6-15)
The betting public is correct when moving the money line in LOUISVILLE games 30% of the time over the past 3 seasons. (6-14).
Due to this information I am playing Louisville plus the points. No play on the over/under.

**Ari Gold** · 10-02-09, 04:59 PM

i heard louisvilles qb is not going to play. just a rumor. no one with credibility has confirmed it

I heard this too, trying to surf the web for this info and nothing. Anyone??? Any info on this???

**khaden** · 10-02-09, 05:42 PM

Tpowel posted this in another thread and stated it isn't released yet-i haven't been able to confirm

**Dbldown11** · 10-02-09, 06:05 PM

LOUISVILLE IS HORRIBLE Look at the Indiana St. game and you'll see all you need to see. They won 30-10 against arguably the worst team in all DI or DII schools.....Even other DII schools beat up on em worse than that

Put this in another thread but I have to make sure that anyone thinking about betting Louisville sees this:

8/27 Quincy 0-1 (0-0) L 26-20 OT
9/05 @ Louisville 0-2 (0-0) L 30-10
9/12 Eastern Illinois 0-3 (0-0) L 31-0
9/19 @ South Dakota State 0-4 (0-1) L 41-0
9/26 Youngstown State 0-5 (0-2) L 28-0

Note that the only team that has played them worse than louisville is QUINCY and Louisville had em at home...and this is who is going to compete with Pitt?
