will root for you guys

east Tenny st has some negatives going against them

another one id tread carefully on

but rooting your as well on that one

Don't think it a coin flip. When ya got 2 teams that depend heavily on 3 point shooting, both poor defending it, I usually think that advantage home squad who generally more comforitable shooting in their gym.

Even still, the UNC game only had 70 possessions. Not really a high paced-game, UNC shot well and got to the line a bunch.

You guys are all over this. That total move doesn't make sense.

I didn't dig into unc game to see pace just noticed they scored a lot (very scientific I know! Lol). The fact the pace wasn't very fast and unc just shot well just speaks to more of what we saying tho, very unlikely this game played the way rebs prefer. Thanks for chiming in bro.

I just wanna know how UNLV got one of the best recruits in the nation. How does a team have the worst year in program history and then land a top 20 player that is going to be one and done? I’m guessing they paid him.

Not necessarily, I mean I never rule out guys getting paid (as they should honestly) but there a lot of reasons a kid chooses. Hell could be as simple as liking the campus and school. If im a beast of a player wouldn't matter to me if school was down, I think I'm good enough to turn wherever I play around!

Don't disagree, I went into it wanting to pay buffalo but by time I was done capping it I realized wasn't a good play. Lol

2daBank · 11-29-17, 03:37 PM

Looks like unlv still taking money so just waiting on uni to see if line flips. Almost positive I'm playing them.

2daBank · 11-29-17, 03:41 PM

Speaking of East Tennessee st I gotta say the amount of turnovers a concern and Fordham been among best in the nation at turning teams over.

Good point

hope you get it!

2daBank · 11-29-17, 03:49 PM

No line for bucknell/st joes? I can't find one at my outs?? Am I just overloooking or no line?? Hate when I cap a game then can't get line!!!!

Louisvillekid1 · 11-29-17, 03:51 PM

I don’t have one

same with e mich I was thinking they could struggle early @ unf

2daBank · 11-29-17, 03:55 PM

Man that pisses me off. Couple days ago felt like I had my numbers pegged for Vermont game and no stinking line. Fukkin cowards!! Lol

2daBank · 11-29-17, 03:57 PM

That nova spread feels a touch high no? Not like pen is total garbage!!

Capybara · 11-29-17, 04:05 PM

Like the card so far, gents. Thoughts on Ohio State tonight? I shouldn't have waited, as this is now up to -5.5.

I think that too many. Actually lean Clemson but not touching. I'm not convinced osu bounces back from blowing that huge lead to butler in their last contest.

Louisvillekid1 · 11-29-17, 04:10 PM

Big 5 rivialry

penn could keep it close early

nova 2h team

lobo on +12 1h

i think okie st laying 5-7 too many points but gonna pass

And was considering Ohio St/Minny ml par

but prob pass on that one also

Capybara · 11-29-17, 04:13 PM

Shit, forgot something... Guys, ARIZONA... How embarrassed are they?! You think it's possible they come out and straight-up eviscerate Long Beach??????? It's -23.5... I mean those guys need a feel good game badly and could have it in their lap here.

2daBank · 11-29-17, 04:16 PM

Penn +21.. not a lot to it,, feels about 4 points to high as I don't think this be played at a very quick pace., penn ft shooting biggest concern but nova another team 1st game off Island tourney just don't think the sharpness will be there and what the incentive once they cruising up 15-20 points?

Too many for me to lay but I don't hate it. Long Beach plays pretty fast so could definitely see a big margin here.

2daBank · 11-29-17, 04:25 PM

Michigan +9.5.. they have enough length to compete with the heels and do good job slowing pace of games down. Think they can keep this within single digits throughout game.

2daBank · 11-29-17, 04:30 PM

Columbia +11.5.. agree with what lk wrote on page 1.

Yeah neither team fouls at all

but mich gonna struggle scoring inside

rooting for ya !

UNMLOBOFAN51 · 11-29-17, 04:40 PM

1h is the play in penn game 12.5 is way to high for a team like nova who is usually slow out the gates

2daBank · 11-29-17, 04:40 PM

Illinois st +14.. I love Nevada this year and been on them many times already, that said this number too high vs a solid defensive team. Red birds off a ugly home loss and maybe that creating some value in this line, I like well coached teams off a bad L as I generally suspect it focuses everyone in practice.

I considered and certainly don't think it a bad idea. Already been burnt by nova in second half but at this number I suspect once they push lead to 15 or so it be cruise control to the end.

Unlv team going to shock some people I watched them all season they look good granted most of the competition were cupcake but still.If this were a home game I would be more confident but still gotta go with them.Gonig buy the eye test though not as much numbers.

I lean unlv here also, think they have matchup advantages. Probably laying off betting it though

Nothing against them, more to do with uni and the style they force teams to play. Young team going on road for 1st time against this team I think will get very frustrated. That what uni does.

Louisvillekid1 · 11-29-17, 04:55 PM

Dam I actually had lean towards Nevada

2daBank · 11-29-17, 04:59 PM

Unlv/uni un 142.5

Uni pk

If young rebs can come to Iowa and deal with the grind it out style I'll tip my cap.

I certainly could be wrong. Feels about 4-5 points high to me tho.

2daBank · 11-29-17, 05:08 PM

Wish I had the stones to play against the steam and take Nebraska-Omaha winless asses but don't think I can do it. lol

2daBank · 11-29-17, 05:19 PM

Niagara +2.. already talked about, kinda a tough play as I was bias toward buffalo when I started but think this the right side. I made dog slight favs so have to ride with my perceived value.

SAVAGE · 11-29-17, 05:22 PM

What does everyone think about Auburn -4?

2daBank · 11-29-17, 05:25 PM

I gots to go run some errands so that will be my card for now., I'm sure i skipped over bunch and didn't cap a lot of the later starts so might not be totally finished! Lol. We see when I get back in few hours., until then gl everyone and thanks for participating.

HeeluvaGuy · 11-29-17, 05:28 PM

I like this LaTech/Bama over at 143 and just added it to my thread. I know Petty is probably out, but that may just mean more shots for Collin Sexton, who may be the most impress freshman I've seen this year. Kenpom has 141 and only 68 possessions, but I think this game may demonstrate one of the few flaws in his approach. La Tech has only gotten to 70 possessions once this season against D-1 teams, and that was in OT. However, the primary reason for this is that they have played the 276, 309, and 343 slowest offensive teams in college basketball by possession length. Bama is top 40 in that stat (and LaTech is in the top half at 175th). I think we get closer to 73 possessions here.
