    Wisc/Nebraska O/U at 105.5... is this a trap?

    It's obviously expected to be a low scoring game, but 105.5 looks extremely low. Two good teams, conference opener, I really can't see either of these teams scoring under 50 points. Am I missing something here?

    You'd almost be inclined to back the over at such a low number.

    wisconsin on average only gives up 45 pts/game

    i think at 107 the total is about right, it will come down to whether or not the game is close enough to foul at the end and run up the total

    Those teams that were scoring less than 45 were some of the worst teams in the league. Pretty sure Nebraska has a better team than Kennesaw State, Colgate, UMKC, Savannah State, Mississippi Valley State.

    true but the most points wisconsin has given up is 61 even though they have played run-n-gun teams like marquette and unlv.

    just because nebraska has a better team doesn't mean they score more. nebraska ave pts/game 66.8 umkc 66.6 miss vall 63.6 marquette 80.3 unlv 78.4

    wisconsin holds most teams to 15-20 points or so under their average so nebraska getting 47-52 would be about right, and with a 9 point spread there's your 107 total.

    like i said, this is all about fouling at the end, wouldn't surprise me to see nebraska have less than 20 at halftime.

    Read something that Nebraska has 2 good players who missed their last few games may also miss this one? Not sure if they will play tonight. I figure if they don't, then they won't score very much at all and then the total makes more sense. Maybe like Wisconsin 62 Nebraska 48 or so.

    Do you have more insight on this one???

    If it's true then I can imagine the game goes 50-0 for Wisconsin, so don't care about the under/over - I think Wisconsin minus the spread is a SUPER LOCK for tonight, I will place a heavy bet on them if that's the case.

    Anyone has more insight on this ?????

    "
    The Huskers (8-3) are sure to have their hands full versus a Badgers team holding opponents to 44.7 points per game and 33.5 percent from the field - both marks are best in the nation.

    Nebraska, which went 7-9 in its final season of Big 12 play in 2010-11, could be shorthanded. It’s unknown if center Jorge Brian Diaz (foot) and junior college transfer Dylan Talley (thigh bruise) will be available after each missed the last two contests.

    While Talley is averaging 9.1 points off the bench, Diaz ranks second on the team with 10.9 per game and second in the league with 23 blocks. His absence could be a major problem considering Wisconsin’s top scorer is 6-foot-10 Jared Berggren, averaging 15.0 points in the last three games."

    Diaz has missed the last two games due to pain in his foot and is expected to miss Tuesday's game against Wisconsin.

    Don't forget Walker w/ a back injury but looks like he may still be able to play. Who knows how bad it'll effect him? But just the fact that he does have an injury should be a cause for concern. I can't find any solid info on it though other than he is listed as having an injury (questionable - 28mins 11 pts, 2 Ass, 5 Rbs last game). Regardless, I am on Wisconsin ATS. Good luck whichever way you go!

    Do a query for CBB games under 110 and how profitable the under bettors are in these games.

    Contrary to what you say, the over is a lock in this matchup tonight.

    While it's looking good right now, this is the type of game where they can score like 8 points in 6 minutes easily.

    So true, we're lucky these threes are landing at the moment. Both teams taking their sweet time to shoot.

    Very few but that doesn't mean it can't happen when you match up certain teams. This game will likely go over at this point but I've seen numerous games with totals in the 100s and 110s that didn't go over in the past. College bball can be a real trainwreck sometimes.

    Oh, I took the over for sure [Buying a few points since it's effective with low totals] but I hardly ever consider it a total guarantee.
