    Michigan is only -2 WTF!! Something is wrong..

    Why the hell is Michigan only 2pt favs in here? Why they only open up -1.5?

    Is there an injury I don't know about or a trend or something?

    Whats going on here?

    I don't feel theres anything wrong with this line. I remember them playing last year, and it was a pretty nip and tuck type game til the very end. It's not a game i'll be playing at all, but I can understand the line.

    Miami's a decent team and they're known for ambushing Big 10 teams in Oxford.

    I think the line reflects the lack of knowledge about how good Michigan is or isn't when it comes to road games. They've only played one and anyone who watched them play NC State saw an uninspired team that lost by 7, but was down double digits for most of the game.

    I hate to say this...but MICH is probably the sucker bet of the day. Not sure who I will play but backing a MICH team that lost to a very poor NCST team is not very appealing right now.

    Lets not forget this game sparks a higher betting interest because it's a TV game tonight. With that being said i'm sure the linesmakers factored that into this number as well

    Only way thing that makes Miami look good is that public is 87% on Michigan..

    On paper Michigan wins by 6-10pts.. Even on the road. Isn't Miami 3-5?? WTF?

    Miami ain't bad. Michigan has underachieved IMO which makes me worried that they may come out to play tonight, but doubt it.

    I hate when teams play awful basketball, but they continue to hang around and tease you.

    Nice call IMGV...i guess i was the sucker tonight

    penetrate off goldengoat you piece of shit....nice to see you posting and gloating after the game is finished. I am good friends with IMGV on here and am here to celebrate his win unlike you who are here to try to ridicule me and put down my pick. Ask IMGV, or Razz, or Pags how much I am up for the season in NCAAF and see who the sucker is. Keep playing lines like this in NCAAB and see what sort of tune you will be singing come late JAN or FEB when lines like these make guys go broke.

    I stand by my picks 100%...and if I had to do it all over I wouldn't hesitate to play Miami +2.5. Let me guess you had Gonzaga -2.5 too the other night.

    Grow the penetrate up dude....

    IMGV...sorry bro this in your thread but I had to say it.

    I will admit that Buddybear is a very sharp individual. It's unfortunate that the 3 times he calls a play a sucker bet it has lost all three times..

    Hey I had Michigan and was scared as shit that this was a sucker bet myself. That's the thing guys the books love to confuse us..

    I will be creating a thread regarding this and would love for everyone to be involved.

    haha!

    chill out buddy bear

    it's no big deal

    oh and i will post after a loss and own up too so it's not like i only chirp after a win

    i would not be giving you crap if you would have just admitted wisc was not a sucker bet vs purdue....instead you insisted it was

    I think it's pretty clear now that Wisconsin was not a sucker bet vs Purdue..

    Wisconsin towers over Purdue!! Then and even more now..
