    So books are going to continue to give away free money with Butler

    Unreal. Why would Vegas be so off game after game on a public darling like Butler?

    Five straight covers, 9 in the last 11, 12-5 on the season after tonight.

    I like our chances in Butler backers. Up by 5 and La Salle in foul trouble. Stevens is a genius too, Butler will pull through.

    Ya, Butler did not play to well first half and up by 5. They should win by double digits. i took them +2.5. I refuse to believe la salle is a trap game lol. I have been wrong before but couldnt deny the chance to roll with butler in his game.

    Didn't make any sense that Butler would open +2.5 here. None.

    they been giving away free money all week. MSU last night. I just dont comprehend some of these lines. What would make vegas want to put lasalle as a fav? or msu, the top team in the big 10 catching +5.5 against the most offensively challenged team I've ever watched. Maybe its because I fall for the team that is the fave in these types of games, but its because the line just seems so off. I'll never get. Then the next time when a line comes out like this and I take the supposed "free money" side they will get run off the court. Never fails.

    I've said it before: oddsmakers these days just copy KenPom. Look at how close their numbers are to his on a game-by-game and night-by-night basis. This laziness can't be good for business, yet it continues to happen.
