opinions on st.louis?

[Louisvillekid1]

i don't how this team can get up for this game after what they've already done...

[ebelisle22]

i know man. im hoping they keep it going tonight, not just for the benefit of my bankroll but for what they've made for themselves

[BigDan]

what loukid said, not to mention it slu's 4th gm in 6 days....luv me some slu and they should get the W but not confident in the cover..under seems decent to me.

Well, both teams play small ball, particularly St. Louis. They rely heavily on the 3 pointer and play a fast paced, frenetic style of basketball. Neither team is good on the glass, it will come down to two teams with a similar style of play....St. Louis just does it a lot better.

Think St. Louis wins 79-65. Locked them in at -9 earlier.

bro slu does not play up tempo, they run when they force turnovers but for the most part they play half court and move the ball around taking quite a bit of clock, they dont really dominate on offensive glass but they damn sure clean up on the defensive side...

to be fair, i haven't seen a lot of them this season, this was the impression i gathered through the little bit I've seen. Thanks for setting me straight. Capped this game mostly off of pure stats.

[ridims]

locked them in at -8.5 this morning

having a perfect night so far so i hope it caps off a pretty successful day

[Louisvillekid1]

no prob, i live in stl so i follow them pretty closely and the books been way off with them, even the gm slu didnt cover the line was a joke going the other direction (laying 18 to bc was a little absurd in the second day of a tourney, under was money tho), actually think this line is pretty sharp given the circumstances it really hard for me to call...id expect whenever slu plays lesser teams that the scores will be pretty low scoring, they are capable of putting up points but are content grinding teams down which i think they will do tonight..

no doubt, they were primed to be good last season then got 2 guys suspended.. def a sweet 16 candidate this season...

haha thanks.

St. Louis looking sluggish on offense but I'm very impressed with them defensively. Think they'll grind Loyola down as the game progresses, feel good about my -9 bet.

[paranoyd androyd]

there's no more than 300 people at this game st louis defense looking stout as usual

[ebelisle22]

in st. louis i trust...

[paranoyd androyd]

this video feed is hilarious middle school gym setting gl

[lite1up]

Loyola cuts the lead to 6 and all 200 fans in attendance go wild!

[BigDan]

dammit slu...this not going under if you let Loyola keep scoring!!

[ebelisle22]

damnn i lost the 1h bet. thought st louis had them by 5 for sure... spoke too soon

[Euphoria38]

Feeling the cover here, SLU is much better.

[paranoyd androyd]

anyone playing 2H? gl

[ebelisle22]

i no alot of u are on the over for 2h but i think the under 69 looks good. i think the move from 67 to 69 was too much for them. i hope st. louis covers!

[paranoyd androyd]

tied 36 w/16 min to go

[BigDan]

fatigue could become a serious factor..

[kp126]
