    Temple Owls

    Anyone else on these guys? Public is pretty heavy on Kent St yet the line opened with Owls as the favorite by 2.5 pts and now the line is all the way up to 5. Furthermore, Kent St has lost 4 of their top 6 scorers from a year ago.

    IDK, is it me or does this game scream TEMPLE?

    You're right but that is on the ML not the spread.

    Public is heavy on Temple spread and ML which is why the spread move. I like Temple but haven't decided if I want to lay the points. Might just wait and see what the line is at halftime.

    Dang man, There are like 3 of you telling me the public is heavy on the Owls yet the link I go to for public consensus tells me the opposite. I'm starting to doubt the validity of the site I check for this game. Do you guys mind providing links to where you get the public consensus on games? Thanks in advance.

    @murray
    yo, I see the majority on temple at www.thespread.com, but not anywhere near
    the biggest public play of the day... don't second guess yourself, sir. I like your link.
    vegas insider is good, too. but I'm the guy who bought the hook when the line opened...
    and I'm on TEM -3 2x... I also touched the 1h line @ -2.5 1x. I'm a big believer in the temple squad today...
    and I've been wrong before, yeah, you know it! but I'm still rollin'... let's stack that jack. good luck.

    by the way, I'm not some kind of college hoops genius...
    I just followed my man, ayo when he placed one early bet.
    sonny, buck, and ayo know these players very well, and
    their leans are solid. when ayo posts an early lean, I always
    take notice. don't always buy it, but I'm always encouraged
    to begin conducting my "due diligence"... good luck all around.

    Nice play on the owl's, kent state really lost composure, tons of garbage fouls and rushed shots which lead to turnovers. The Owls the much better coached team. I looked at the spread, not sure where they get their numbers from, but from the # of bets it looks like either it is the number placed on that site, not overall. I could be wrong.

    If you're talking about the ATS number I agree. I wonder how often it is that one public consensus site differs so drastically from every other site? I mean I know these public consensus sites are getting their info from different books but for my site to have the public 60%+ on the Owls and everyone elses site has the opposite seems really suspect.
