    Southern Miss. -3

    Does anyone else think this game is a trap? EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE is on Southern Miss. and seeing them winning by 6+ easy. Why is the line so low? I also really like this line but what's the deal with this? It seems to good to be true, honestly. Thoughts?

    Worried that the whole world is on it, especially when I decided to go large.

    Who knows. Unless there is something I am absolutely missing, based on research and capping this game, Southern Miss is the correct play. Can't do anything more than that.

    BOL! Let's cash this thing!

    Yeah I'm very worried that the world is on it. I'm leaning towards Southern Miss. but, I really don't know if I'm going to make a play on it because of the amount of people on them. It scares me. This one is tough to call!

    Agreed... strange line, considering the good teams that they have beaten on the road... I am on it for 4 units!

    Southern Miss came back from 7 down in the 2-h to beat UAB by 4 when they played at home last game. Also UAB has conference rival Memphis coming up this weekend. Memphis is going to the Big East and this might be the last time they play UAB in Conference play. USM has a very good RPI with their three losses coming to Memphis, Murray State, and Denver...all very good teams. Perhaps UAB will be looking ahead to Memphis bc they'd much rather beat Memphis than USM. I've already played the -3 but I'm also going to be on the ML too. I live in Bham and keep up with UAB fairly well. UAB is going into this game on a two game win streak in conference and USM has only won one game in Bham. UAB plays good defense but I don't see them beating USM.

    In these situations in college ball I have always found that a bet on the public favorite is the WRONG play. If you can't find a reason to side with the 10% of bettors holding this line down on UAB side, then find another play. College basketball cashes these dog plays.

    These teams always play close games. It is possible that Southern Miss wins and does not cover.

    It's all about value, Evansville was decent value at +5.5/+6 last night, whereas this line should be in that same range so the value is actually on So Miss up to -4.5ish.

    Blazers shoot 67% from the field. Fukk my life. I'm giving up on gambling. Ever since that godd Dayum super bowl, I've been on tilt no matter what I take.

    Rough night in CBB once again. Good thing I've been red hot in the NBA to keep me balanced out these past couple days.

    Better luck tomorrow guys.
