I told myself I would not bet favorites of more than 9. I am laying off.

BTW you should keep in mind in these types of games (conference tourney games) motivation is so important. Alot of the better teams come out flat, since they are coasting until the big dance.

BOTTOM LINE: It is not always about talent and ability, but motivation and heart.

Well I watch the game on Saturday night when they played CSU, and the Rams had a tough time getting below the three point arch. UNLV should repeat the performance from saturday night. That final was 80-59. If the Rebel defense is on again (14 blocks saturday), they should roll easy in this one.

BYU vs UNLV tomorrow night. I will probably be there.

UNLV wont be looking ahead. BYU is crushing a lower seed tonight, and Im pretty sure the Rebels will do the same.

Rebels beat BYU at home, and BYU beat UNLV at home. This is suppost to be a neutral court, but Rebels have the advantage tonight, and tomorrow night.

Not betting it, but I think this will be an ass beating, especially once Kruger sees some of the upsets going on around the nation.

UNLV up 10 at the half. 41-31.

4 blocks for them in the 1st half, and Kruger is 5 for 5 from the three point arch. The team is 9 for 12 from three.

Should be more of the same in the 2nd.

I'm watching the game...they look good...up 19 with 10 mins. to play...

onlooker · 03-10-07, 01:05 AM

UNLV up 57-38, 7 minutes into the 2nd half. The Rebels are running once again.

Kruger on the bench, resting up for tomorrow night.

Im watching too Pags.

What do you guys think the line will be for the BYU game?

I'm thinking UNLV -3.5/4.

onlooker · 03-10-07, 01:26 AM

CSU got the lead down to 11. UNLV is just trying to cruise now. They better get back on track.

UNLV -3 tomorrow against BYU.

onlooker · 03-10-07, 01:48 AM

UNLV wins 88-72.

Funny thing at the end. Shaw of UNLV shoots a three and hits it with about .2 seconds left. Well Kruger made him say sorry to the CSU coach for that shot.

Gaaaah, what about all those people that teased Colorado State to +14.5 or +15? Gotcha.

Well CSU didnt help that either, they were fouling down 12/13 with under 50 seconds left. So they helped kill those teasers as well.

Looks like UNLV is -4.5

Im not going to play that. Going to pass and just enjoy the game. I will probably stay home and watch it.

I like BYU at that price for reasons listed in Parlay thread.
