Getting 9 pts with Wisky seems like it could be a gift. The team only gives up 51 ppg and Ohio St has been a very vanillia, 2-2 in there last 4. Ohio St still has a bigger game looming in the distance which is against Michigan St next Sunday. I've seen a lot of quality dogs cover this weekend (Missouri, Purdue, Uconn, Vandy, etc) Wisconsin could be the next one in line here. Wisconsin is still looking to stamp there resume for postseason play so you know here on a Sunday afternoon there gonna come up with a good effort. What do you think?

well first of all, Wisconsin is a lock for the NCAA tournament even if they lose out...

[DudleyDawson]

line-setters want you to think +9 is a gift. Vegas doesn't give away gifts, someone pays for all them lights.

[BIGDAY]

If you take WI, parlay it with the under as if they keep this game close, it will be lower scoring. GL

Obviously Wisconsin is a lock, but i'm referring more to solidifying a higher seed. A benchmark win in Ohio St could go a long way. This team has severely under performed this yr and there potential is much higher. I understand Vegas doesn't give out presents, but also understand that right now Ohio St is getting hit pretty hard. 9 pts to a team that plays great defense and can score at a decent margin is a huge amount to give. Big margin of error to fall in between with.

Tourists, tourist pay for all of the lights. W/o tourist Vegas as a city would dissapear. Also not many casinos make much money from sports bettors. They make money from horses/slots/events all from tourism.

[BernardMadoff]

State crushes teams at home usually, game on CBS, think the boys will be motivated to get over that 51 ppg average and put distance between it.

[HoulihansTX]

Wisky does not have much potential. They are getting by on hustle and coaching. The fact that minnesota was able play Wisky to a virtual tie is damning evidence vs Wisky. Minnesota is horrific.

Will Wisky cover today? I do not know, but Wisky is performing to their potential.

sunday numbers are set for the public, favs are a bit inflated...

[anthonydiamondLC]

That kid Jordan Taylor can make huge shots and can really stop any run pushing this game out of reach while also being able to quick start any run for Wisky. Having that kind of quality on the court with a 9 pt margin is huge.

[thebestthereis]

It's better when Whisky is -18 not +9. That is the way you want it.

[Illusivecone]

State comes to play today, Wisconsin doesn't have the talent to keep up.

[BernardMadoff]

Wisky just doesnt have the shooters of past years, theyve played the same for eons, but are used to guys making more open shots than they have this year.

[Blissit02]

I like the badgers plus +9 myself

[SalvadorC]

FYI: Line dropped from 9 to 8 at Legendz right at tip-off.

[anthonydiamondLC]

tied at half. 2nd half line sits at 5.5. Ohio St seemed like when they didn't turn the ball over they wouldn't miss a shot. Wisconsin for a team that doesn't put up huge offensive numbers held there ground very well. You have to assume that Ohio St is gonna have to cool off a touch and if Wisconsin plays defense like they did in the 1st half they will have a chance to win this one late.

This was my thinking as well, I had it at 120 and +9. It was looking really good until the last 3 minutes or so these teams went on a "relative" scoring flurry. Oh well.

[anthonydiamondLC]

Wisconsin was a gem. You simply can't give a team that good that many pts. Nothing better then college hoops!

[neverstoppers23]

i love losing games because college kids cant hit free throws. think i am taking a break and cashing out intill the mlb. just cant handle college basketball anymore.

[anthonydiamondLC]

neverstopper, ohio st lost the game because they turned the ball over to much. Even if they had made all there ft's they still weren't covering 9.

[thebestthereis]

At + 9 you take the Badgers vs Ohio State or Miami Heat, it is a no brainier period.

[thfootball]

i leave to go to a movie with Ohio St up, come back and check score and see that i lost on my parlay as straight up favorites.That was a rough 3 days with all the favorites not doing their thing. Shaking head.
