    Square buddy of mine is putting his entire account on Baylor tonight

    Said it's the easiest play of the year. Can't believe Baylor is a dog.

    You know what to do.

    Baylor has covered a few weird lines like this already this season.

    I can't back Texas.

    I'll lay off.

    I wasn't going to play it, but now I'm really tempted to at least take the Texas ML.

    Only play I have so far is St. John's/DePaul over 152.

    I like the Nova/Uconn under for some reason but I suck at totals.

    I would probably lean Nova in that game as well. Don't ask me why.

    Baylor is playing horrible ball right now.

    A good rule of thumb is to fade teams on the road that aren't playing well.

    Likewise, this is a must win for Texas.

    Of course I don't play Nova and they're completely blowing Uconn off the court.

    conspiracy theory line opens at -2 ok public thinks baylor is way more dominant team cause media spoon fed em them all yr but y line so low there trying to trick me...ill show them ill take texas cause im sharp....line moves up a full point cause big public fav

    maybe line was set at 2 because texas is a quality team especially at home and what baylor beat em by only 4 or so at home

    He just called me and said he's going big on the Lakers/Clippers as a parlay, both 1H and game.

    All three public plays cover. Baylor, St. John's, and Uconn (unless you got a terrible number). Just unreal. Over/Unders in those games went right for the public as well.

    You must know more than the oddsmakers, eh? You know, the professionals who set these lines for a living?

    Yeah they set the lines, but don't control shit when it comes to the game. The teams don't care about the spread of a game. Way to much talk about square plays and what not. Still a better team, and I'm always gonna back the better team.

    The only thing more square than being square is being fictitiously sharp.

    Youre kidding yourself if you believe linesmakers set lines based on who is the better team.

    Get some fresh air pal, the mold in the basement is getting to your brain.

    If you bet solely off spreads and not the actual teams, you will lose. Simple as that.

    Yes, Baylor is the better team and yes, Baylor struggles against certain kinds of teams. Texas isn't one of those types of teams.

    Unranked Texas was favored by 2 against ranked Baylor. The line then went from 2 to 3 despite 70+ percent of the public being on Baylor.

    If you keep betting against shit like that, you'll wind up buried. Well, at least before this season you would -- now, it seems like these horrific lines and movement are happening on an almost daily basis.

    So why was Texas -2 (moved to -3)?

    Watch a basketball game instead of line movement and you'll be better off man. I'm trying to help you.

    Baylor struggles against well coached teams so you bet on Texas, a team who is coached worse than Baylor?
