Why do we like UVA over NC State? Also BC over UNC?

Definitely lean Kentucky but I've been burnt so many times this year with road dogs 1-2 possessions because of late fouls. I am hoping Kentucky moves to 4.5 or even 5 and I'll jump on it.
When the line first came out I loved NC State+3.5, but the more I look at this game the less I like it. Virginia will attempt slow this game down and NC State seems like the kind of team that can succumb to this kind of half court game. I dislike Gottfried and I think he is one of the poorer technical coaches. Now have a strong lean on Virginia but may sit this one out.
Also lean Nebraska, that is alot of points to give to Minnesota who haven't been shooting well, especially the last 2 games, and I don't think have any huge advantage inside. Only way Minnesota runs away with this is if they can get hot from the perimeter, and they are hitting 43% from 3 in the last 5, which scares me, otherwise I think they keep Minnesota within a dozen.
Slight lean for me on Nebraska.

took the points with nebraska..I think +19 is too high considering minnesota's recent problems. will likely take virginia but I'm hoping it gets driven down to -2 or so.

My book just moved it up to 3.5 from 3.

Virginia is my favorite play today. Nc state coming off emotional win over rival UNC now they must go on the road and play a Virginia team who has quietly being very good this year.

UNLV is also very good at home and they want to run the score up bc they feel disrespected that they arent getting any national attention.
they are playing with a huge chip on their shoulder

Sdsu on the road beat Nevada by 21. Rebels should easily cover. I see a 22+ win.

The Gophers can take it out on the Huskers........but they still might not get to that 19 number.
Nebraska has a little bit of momentum, starting to get the line and score in conference games the last 2 weeks. Plus they lost on the road at Michigan and Michigan St by 15 and 10 respectively. Minnesota is not on the level of the Michigan schools, they've been having a tough time putting the ball in the basket, and Mbakwe is a little banged up.
I think Minnesota wins, but 19 is ALOT of points in the Big 10.
