Wondered what the board's thoughts were here. Cincinnati is obviously very good, but I still love UConn's guards and this might be a chance for them to make a statement. I've only seen both teams a few times this year -- any experts on either side want to chime in?

i really like cincy... their defense, especially at home is unreal. VERY lengthy team. will give Uconn hell.
I think Napier could keep Uconn in this game by himself, but i think Cincy is good enough to cover this spread... did you see what they did to louisville? AT louisville....Comment -
I'm also looking at Temple, who just continues to suck, at +13.5 @ SMU. Big letdown spot for SMU after the home pounding of Memphis. Way too many points there.
East Carolina and Oakland on the radar as well.Comment -
Problem is.. Uc has really good guards that defend. I think uconn doesn't match up well here. Need big men to beat us.
Is Daniels out?Comment -
I'm glad you like temple also. Psu?? I like em. 13.5 too much I'm thinkingComment -
Going to pass there. Like it in theory, but I think Payne is back tomorrow, so who knows what that will do to MSU short-term.Originally posted by mikmikComment -
Coin I was expecting a line of 5.5 or 6 minimum, where I was going to absolutely pound Connecticut like crazy.
I still like them but and still will most likely go pretty heavy on this game, I just think they match up pretty well, faster guards and I think shabazz goes absolutely nuts tomorrow, either way it should be a 1-2 possesion game and there is still some vslue with uconn? Im going to take a shot at the ML tooComment -
Theres been 8 straight dogs to cover on espn... Just a little tidbit for you guys. Will that streak break tonight? Uconn game on espn.Comment -
Only game I watched with either of these teams this year was cincy at Louisville. Makes me wanna bet cincyComment -
As a uconn homer, I still would never put a penny on them this year . They are way too inconsistent , and tonight they may win , or they may lose by 20Comment -
I personally think UConn and Temple are both great plays tonight, but that's just me. We'll see I guess.Originally posted by chinoloco212
Good luck chino.Comment -
I have a feeling this line is very sharp.Comment -
Give me uc -4 for a homer play.Comment -
was gonna see what people thought here....I see Cincy in a close oneComment -
Coin im liking oregon a lot too, what you think? Arizona big man got injuredComment -
Oregon is team that can lose it mentally....if their game is on point-they can hang easily....Originally posted by chinoloco212Comment -
i like uconn as well. Dont know how they are going to match up with the length of cincy thoughComment -
UConn lines almost always are.Originally posted by t-wizzleComment -
Yeah this is extremely sharp...Comment -
I think I hate the Pac-12 and will pass. I hit Stanford last night and I'm going to quit while I'm ahead.Originally posted by chinoloco212Comment -
Too Ucon mneyline. Did not like how cincinatti played against south florida as -15 point favs.Comment -

Did you like how they played against Louisville? Kind of hard to get up for S. Florida after playing Louisville. On the same token, it shouldn't be too hard to get up for UCONN.Comment -
I took Temple, FIU, ECU and Oakland. For now, passing on UConn.Comment -
Enough said. Taking UCONN +7 Luck All!

UConn looking good so far. Liked Cincy here but UConn playing well these days.Comment -

Incredibly sharp line. The line movement indicated this. On top of that books obviously expected a Cincy close win with the opening line.Comment -
booked it too early...not sure what made me jump on 5 overnight.Originally posted by No coincidencesComment -
Twiz--just curious, but howndid early line movement indicate sharpness? Thanks.Comment -
these late collapses are killing me

Greaser first off the opening line was the first alarm. #7 ranked team only -5 at home over a mediocre #22 team (btw books haven't been crazy about UConn this year). The fact that it went down at first indicated to me that it was definitely going to be a close game but the movement where it bounced around 5/5.5/6 basically told me it was going to come down to late free throws.
I have found that when lines are bouncing around in the 5-6 pt range that most college games are going to come down to late foul shots for a win of about that margin.Comment
