    Providence line
    Providence has been playing well and now they are underdogs. Does this line look fishy to anyone else?

    Extremely. I'm a PC fan (and habitual bettor), and this seems completely off. URI almost never beats ranked teams, have lost five straight to the Friars, and they just seem like the inferior team again.

    I was considering betting more than usual on this one but just a 2 unit bet from me. Something is strange with that line.

      Providence still getting no respect from literally everyone - analysts, vegas, etc...I'm riding them again till they get some of the respect they deserve. Rivalry or not, they should be 3-5 point favorites so pounding the ML, penetrate sprinkling it.

        RI gets to line at best rate In country and providence not deep at all....
        If they get in foul trouble, which I think has a high chance of happening, this could get ugly.

          PC was right there with Zona without Dunn for much of a half. They'll be fine.

          Of course, I might be homer biased.

          There shouldn't be much of a homecourt for this one, in any case.

            Have you seen these teams play? RI hasn't faced a physical team like Providence yet. You're right, this could get ugly when RI stops taking the ball into the paint and has to settle for jumpers.

              I will say that this feels like a "Vegas knows something we don't" game.

                And ironically enough, it'll prolly be Provo getting to the line more in this game then URI.

                  I agree, this game smells like a trap .

                    Or they just want you to overthink it and then we all know what happens then...

                      I'll just ride the +2 (should've waited...) and see what happens.

                                  wow. that's a surprise. much as I like the providence squad, and feel it's difficult to handicap dunn's talent, it's RI here, or no play, for me.

                                      URI's playing the game of their lives and I greatly underestimated their homecourt. Still only down 4, though...and everything's been going URI's way.

                                          Certainly was a good game but they still won't be getting any respect for their next game against BC so will continue to roll on them till they do.

                                            Great win! They weren't their best by any means, and URI gave it everything.
