    The Wyoming / Denver spread just stinks of a trap
    10-0 Wyoming playing at home against 3-5 Denver and the spread is only 8? For the season, Wyoming scores more points, yields less points, and has higher shooting %, F/T %, and 3point % than Denver. So why only 8?

    trap? trap such a silly word, it just a number , they all just numbers, "trap" not real... 8 seems fair enough for a gm that should be played at a snails pace, what would you have it be? ive never been a fan of playing den on the road but 2nd day in a row you eying a team laying a decent number of points that struggles to defend the perimeter vs a team that gets a vast majority of their points from beyond the arc... lets be honest bout wyo, yes the win at illi st was impressive and they did beat a decent col team but outside of those 2 wins the other 8 were against pretty bad teams, while im sure den wins have also been against bottom feeders their losses have all been against solid teams well within the top 100... ill say again i never play den on the road, that said with the way this gm be played if den gets around 52 points id like their chances of covering...

      Yeah I hear ya. I was on Santa Clara yesterday and they almost covered after not playing well nearly the entire game. I was just looking at the comparative stats for Denver and Wyoming and figured that the number seemed low to me. I didn't place a bet on it yet, so going to monitor the line movement and other intangibles before I decide what to do.

          You are correct in your analysis. But I think, you may have to factor
          in the (do factor) in that sooner or later Wyoming is going to lose.
          Now it may not be tonight, but no one in college basketball
          stays undefeated, for any length of time.
          Good luck

              Denver is a horrific road team... just look @ their history on the road for the past 3 years. Stop guessing.
