    Does it make sense to like Maryland +3.5 tonight?

    Both teams are incredibly erratic, and I know Maryland just lost one of their guards from their rotation to injury. Game's at Alabama. Seems like a true gamble, but I'd just be going with my gut in taking the Terps.

    Am I crazy?

    I see 3.5 on my site. Bama is a tough place to play, especially without your starting point guard and being an awful road team. I'm undecided

    Did not know about the guard but still feel comfortable about the play.

    Yea I mean it can go either way. Bama was going to struggle to cover Wells and Allan. With Allan out they can smother Wells a little better. Alabama actually has an advantage in the paint as well. It will be a very good game

    Wouldn't try to be sharp here. I'd say Bama or nothing.

    With Seth Allen, you wouldn't be crazy at all.

    Without Seth Allen, *which is tonight's game*, your crazy.

    My gut was telling me MD as well, but boy do I hate that line without Seth Allen... It seems very favorable for Bama on their floor

    NoCoincidences, would you say Maryland is an official lean at this point?

    Seth Allen is a good player and has been hot lately, but he is a combo guard and does not start. It will hurt to lose him and his outside shot but he is not a point guard at all. The terps start PShon Howard a junior at point and he has been playing much better, and Nick Faust, another combo guard but strongest at the the 3. They can match up big with Len and Mitchell and Cleare or small, the way they won the last game with Faust, Howard, Aronholt and Wells.

    I can see that the money is going on Alabama, I am either going to play Alabama on the moneyline or take the Terps +6. Not sure yet, hope this helps

    If you can get MD +6 somewhere then that would be hard to pass up
