    BoS_010 Plays 2/9

    YTD: 1-4 (-2.4x)

    Looking at the lines last night not a whole lot stood out. One that did was Creighton -3; it screamed "take me, mush!" And now today it has fallen to -2.5. It might be square but I'm falling for it, ML though. After yesterday's train wreck, will definitely remain selective.

    2/9 Card:
    Creighton ML (-140) (1.5x)



    Also looking into Oregon St +16.5. Again, won't be a whole lot today. GL all...

    Good luck, but it's been my experience that whenever you have a road team favored by -2.5 take the home team to win or just stay away from the game altogether. I tend not to take my own advice though - had a 10 team parlay for 50 to win over 3k yesterday. The one lose was VCU - they were -2.5 road favs... Not saying this is the way it goes all of the time, but it seems to happen at a nice clip.

    Ouch 2Shirts. 9 of 10 is a tough pill to swallow. I hear what you're saying and I usually stay away from these types of games as well. I don't think St John's hangs around for the full 40 minutes...wouldn't be shocked if they are winning at halftime though, but when it's all said and done I think Creighton pulls it out.

    1-5 (-4.5x) YTD

    I'm not even mad at the Creighton play. I understand it was a "trap" game but the dog doesn't cover 100% of the time; thought this was one of those times and it didn't work out. Oh well, it's only money...haha. I'm mad that I was unable to watch the game. After losing 5 straight St. John's is now 6-1 in their last 7 overall; kudos to them.
