You're playing the MIami/duke game? I have no read on it , I was thinking lower scoring but line movement suggests other wise, plus don't wanna enjoy the game pulling for under.

Sorry if I missed it in the thread.

No idea. Looks like Duke or nothing, but I don't have a clue.

I would love for someone to explain to me the UCLA line to me. UCLA -1/Pk/+1 looks like free $$$. I'm shocked it not atleast -3.5. And I still like it then.

This would be the spot where they put on a show, but this low line is scary

**Louisvillekid1** · 03-02-13, 06:04 PM

Tonight I'm starting to really like Providence, but # is slightly higher than expected, was hoping for 4.5/5.5

Agree. Might just steer clear there.

**Louisvillekid1** · 03-02-13, 06:07 PM

I think I gotta just stick to my gut even tho its looks so easy, and just ignore the line movement on this one. Let me know you if decide I'll roll w/ you...

**Louisvillekid1** · 03-02-13, 06:39 PM

Ok Coin,

I got suckered in for action...

Went w/ UCLA for a hundo and through 50 on a 3 teamer, Prov ML, G town/Ru u 121, & Colorado St Pk.

Colorado St really intrigues in this matchup because Boise loves that 4 guard set and that is really going to put them in trouble on the defenisve end as the rams can score inside all day.

Same here. I wanna take UCLA large but the line and line movement has me hesitant.

**Speedy88** · 03-02-13, 07:03 PM

Just flipped, now UCLA favored by 1.

That CSU/Boise game will be interesting. BSU doesn't lose much at home.

Wow nice Saturday Coiner. Thoughts on tomorrow in NBA and NCAA? Michigan looks good to me, I was a bit surprised the line was that low, I was thinking Mich -5. Thinking the low line may just reflect their poor play as of late.

Really like the Knicks and Clipps tomorrow in NBA.

Thanks Speedy. Not sure what to think about Sunday's NBA card. Figure either the Knicks or Clips will cover, but which one? Maybe the under in the MIA/NY game. I'm kind of liking Dallas +5 at Houston.

Don't really have any opinion on that Michigan/MSU game, given U-M's current play and what happened the first time around. Hard to say. Looking at Manhattan early. Don't see much on the CBB card. Would like to play GT late, but not sure if they have the horses to keep up with NC State.

**No coincidences** · 03-03-13, 01:48 AM

Manhattan +7 (2.2U to win 2)

**hustlehard617** · 03-03-13, 09:27 AM

Coin what you think about BC today against Virginia think. It's a potential let down spot after the big win against Duke

**TwoWays** · 03-03-13, 11:40 AM

Your fav team Pitt is playing, NC.

**Speedy88** · 03-03-13, 02:52 PM

Who's the better home dog today, BC or GTech? I'm thinking BC but not totally sure.

**TwoWays** · 03-03-13, 04:48 PM

This year more than any other ranked teams dropping like flies on the road.

**No coincidences** · 03-03-13, 05:04 PM

Michigan -5 2H +100 (2U to win 2)

If that wasn't a loss that typifies this thread, I don't know what is.

**Speedy88** · 03-03-13, 06:40 PM

Horrible beat. That Michigan coach is awful. Makes me feel better about having Lorenzo Romar coaching my team.

To leave a 44% FT shooter in the game and not sub him out is beyond me.

I was on Duke spread last night, and Coach K was coaching like an amateur to close out that game. I'm a big Coach K fan, but last night he kept having Plumlee inbound, knowing Miami would trap the corner and they'd have to swing it back to him. Why not just have Ryan Kelley inbound? Plumlee got sent to the line twice only hitting 2 of 4, and then the other time he threw the ball out of bounds.

These coaches in college are killing me. Or last night the Baylor coach has them attempt a full court heave only to go out of bounds and give KState a shot under their own hoop.

Ok I'm done rambling. Looks like we've both had some bad beats lately.

I've always respected Beilein for his contrarian approach to the game, but I've never noticed how horrible he is for in-game situations. I was baffled by how dumb he and Bo Ryan were during the game in Madison when neither would foul while protecting a 3-point lead late.

Don't even get me started with Drew from Baylor. He can recruit, but for games, they'd be better off with a tackling dummy on their bench.

Saw the highlights. Doesn't surprise me. He is "dangerously stupid" territory with a clipboard in his hands.

Yep. I just watch some of these games and don't understand how these guys get paid to coach.

Good to know. Question. I have a 7 teamer pending two plays that both start at 8 with one being Texas. The other play is over in Denver and ATL. Any idea how to hedge?

If it's pending two plays, there's really nothing you can do other than going the live or halftime route. Hopefully they're both in good shape at the break, or at least one of them is so that you can start figuring out your best options. Good luck.
