    Books throw soft lines out because these are small market teams and neither had a line on them all year?

    I have no idea to be honest. Did the same thing today with Rider. Not even close to being a sharp number. Apparently they're OK with handing out free money to the afternoon degenerates.

    Also lean Buffalo, Bowling Green, Illinois and Boston College.

    Thanks, but I should've just let the sleeping dog lie. I am so sick of this sport and so ready for MLB so that I can just drop it from my slate altogether.

    Saw Pastner interviewed before this game -- what a putz. Dude should be selling cars instead of "coaching" his team (if you could call it that).

    No need to fade the Depaul pick, that one should be a winner. I don't know how you can back Iowa, they are such frauds.

    Just an action pick. I just think MSU is a mess right now with their "new" rotations and everyone coming back.

    Might still make a 4-5U play on Loyola-Chicago. Still looking into it.

    I agree with you that Spartans are a mess, but so is Iowa. They just lost like 3 or 4 in a row, and nearly lost at home to Purdue the other day. That game is unbettable to me, but GL.

    DePaul off to a solid start. Two points in 8 minutes so far. Another Vegas gift line.

    Loyola (Chi.) +3

    In the two sides that i took tonight, i backed Oliver Purnell and Lorenzo Romar. Talk about an upside-down season....

    Blue Demons looking like absolute dogshit (esp their shenanigans at end of 1H), but i'll split at worst because i took UW 1H before Lo has a chance to penetrate it up down the stretch!

    Yeah, but you're going against Alfraud, who's about as much of an in-game derelict as our buddy Lo.

    UCLA has been really weak lately 1H, starting very slowly, esp on road. Walton was on fire announcing. i think that it was Shawn Kemp that he pleaded with not to "let life pass [him] by." it wasn't long after that that he was praising Kemp for how far he's come.

    50/50 that Walton is high when he's announcing.

    That probably used to be true, but i doubt it these days. Not like it bothers me anyway if he is. Wasn't long ago, it was 100/0 that i was high when i was watching...

    I think that he's just an overly verbose dipshit. However, i find him entertaining (the way that i find a clown or the Three Stooges entertaining). At least he isn't so annoying that he's auto-mute like Vitale, Dakich/Tirico, and way too many other announcers that get work in this or other sports multiple nights a week. Vitale is one of the most curious phenomena in sports. Who the penetrate enjoys listening to him? I've never met anyone who will admit liking his tired schtick. Say what you will about Walton, but he doesn't recycle his bullshit. He also doesn't yell it and constant repeat himself.

    He recycles everything he says and he picks a team before each broadcast and says everything positive about them and negative about the other team. Plus I really think they just pulled him out of make a wish.

    So much for that play.

    Let me get this straight: the first time these two teams played, the O/U was 139 and there were 152 points scored. The second time, the total inexplicably drops to 135.5, and there are 148 points scored. Another easy over.

    Now today, for the third meeting, the total is again right around that second number -- which makes zero sense at this point. So what happens? Of course it's flying over. Apparently the books didn't know what they were doing here and are just truly that dumb.

    Wichita basically scores on every possession. Kind of absurd really

    Early game on a neutral court, and I figured the oddsmakers had a clue. My fault for trusting the experts. Didn't know it was free money day in Vegas.

    Then the books make the Wichita 2H total low enough to get slaughtered all over again. Unbelievable.
