Dayton/Charlotte

BiffTFinancial · 02-08-09, 08:42 AM

Agreed. If I was backing Charlotte, i wouldn't take less than 5. Actually, I'm not sure how many points it'd require. Charlotte blows.

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 08:43 AM

Charlotte 0-7 ATS vs conference opponents
Charlotte 3-5 ATS at home
Dayton 4-3 ATS on the road
Dayton 5-2 SU on the road

Dayton 21-2
Charlotte 7-14

Am I missing something here?

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 08:43 AM

I am tempted to put 10 units on this mofo. Someone talk me out of it.

BiffTFinancial · 02-08-09, 08:54 AM

Don't know that i'd talk you out of it, but i see it as a dayton 5-6 point win with decent chance of a blow-out. dayton has played down to its competition on the road. Check out the last 4. Charlotte's bad, but so are LaSalle, GW, UMass. Dayton has had trouble beating anyone handily on the road. They probably win and cover, but based upon their recent history, you're likely to end up sweating it out. BOL whatever you decide.

02/04 at LASALLE -1 134 63-61 W W
01/22 at GEORGE WASHINGTON -5.5 125.5 63-61 W L
01/17 at DUQUESNE +2 143 78-69 W W
01/10 at MASSACHUSETTS -4.5 135.5 62-75 L

Thanks for the info BiffT. Gonna lay 5 units down on it for shits and giggles. I think Vegas is just head****ing people with this line. Dayton is the better team and can play on the road, I hate laying road chalk but I feel pretty confident about the other factors.

BiffTFinancial · 02-08-09, 09:22 AM

Anytime. Dayton's clearly the better team. Now if they'd just start playing like it for 40 consecutive minutes... BOL.

Put half there and then take the machine's pick Canisius 11:30 game

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 10:08 AM

I think Dayton has a big advantage on the boards as well. I think Charlotte stays close first half and the Flyers wear them down in the 2nd half. Defense wins on the road and Dayton has a top 20 defense. As long as they dont go ice cold from the field and stay around 30-35% on Offensive Rebounding I think they got this one.

I heard Marcus Johnson might be out for this game with the flu. Anybody know for sure?

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 10:59 AM

Johnson and Stephen Thomas are questionable. Still got Wright, Lowery and Little so they will survive.

dob08 · 02-08-09, 11:00 AM

Dayton win they tie xavier for the divisional lead. I think they will be motivated and handle Charlotte

FLU???

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 11:03 AM

It worries me slightly. Hopefully nobody else on the team is under the weather. I think Dayton steps up today.

dob08 · 02-08-09, 11:10 AM

Johnson is a stud. Maybe the line is low cause he is sick?? Seems too low, but i guess they haven't been blowing opponents out on the road. Charlotte only 1-7 in conference.

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 11:15 AM

Sometimes when a key player is out other players step up, this could be the kick in the ass Dayton needs to really squash a mismatched opponent on the road.

I hope. LOL

dob08 · 02-08-09, 11:19 AM

i'm on it. Let's cash. Hopefully they bring it. Would love to see a blow out from the start.

dob08 · 02-08-09, 11:21 AM

95% of the public on them as well. Hope this isn't a sucker play.

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 11:25 AM

Smells like it but I have already pulled the trigger.

Godzilla · 02-08-09, 11:32 AM

Never trust a road team. I like N Iowa better. But Dayton SHOULD take care of business.

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 11:33 AM

Hopefully this game is like the Butler/Wright State game yesterday. Weird line. Butler covers easy.

dob08 · 02-08-09, 11:36 AM

Let's go DAYTON

GODFATHER · 02-08-09, 11:37 AM

Hi Vonn,

I'm with you guys on this one lets cash!! GL

Vonnegut · 02-08-09, 11:40 AM

Marcus Johnson and Stephen Thomas DID NOT make the trip to Charlotte. Official. Still....Dayton wins this one they are tied with Xavier for the A10 lead, and have a big game against X on Wednesday. I think they are motivated and they have the horses to win by 5-6. I ****ing hope so I got alot riding on this game. Hoping the Vegas sharps are atleast 3 or 4 points off today.

bluff · 02-08-09, 11:41 AM

F it. lets cash!

I just threw up in my mouth! JK. Hope you're right. Hate having starters out. Especially 2 of their better players.

Dfjay9 · 02-08-09, 12:15 PM

I'm all over dayton I'm not sure if I wanna pull the trigger though

andrewaxia · 02-08-09, 12:22 PM

Thomas (backup guard) didn't make the trip. Johnson did make the trip. He participated at the shootaround last night but is a gametime decision

Reggie Dunlop · 02-08-09, 12:24 PM

I am going to stay away from this game. I bought the pick back and lose the juice. The public is all over Dayton, and the line just dropped a 1/2 point. The books aren't stupid.

dob08 · 02-08-09, 12:28 PM

Actually the line just went up a .5 pt. It's at -3 now.

so im zach · 02-08-09, 12:31 PM

I'm on the under.

Went 2.5 to 3 on WSEX

GatorFan · 02-08-09, 12:51 PM

Be careful with this game, guys. If you play, should be a small bet only on Dayton. I just leave this one alone. Good luck guys!

dreday · 02-08-09, 12:51 PM

back down to -2 in my book
