    i thought all the money went on cuse? you do know what burying the public is right? didn't the line start at -3? then down to -1 before tip? you need to learn how betting works, bro

    the percentages have to be bullshit. Biggest scam in sports betting today are those numbers

    If anything, it's probably on the low side.

    Who in their right casual betting mind would bet Pitt tonight?

    I think alot of people. People love home teams, they use the whole theory that Cuse has to lose at some point. Dumb concepts like that. I just think the casual fan can spend 5 mins online and think Pitt is the right pick. Ive been thinking this for awhile but I think alot of this stuff that is readily handed over by books is just to make you think you found a right angle when in actually its just a bait and switch. I think it might of been a legit tool a couple years ago but I think its slowly change. Books/Vegas love mind fuking people and tell me a single better right now that doesnt look at public percentages at least once when they are making a bet

    I like to follow the lead of oddsmakers -- guys who do this for a living. Works for every sport other than college hoops, because of Ken Pomeroy. He has ruined this sport.

    Either that or it was a complete fluke and youre going to see some games get "corrected" the rest of the night to compensate for it. Knicks lose, Kentucky lose, Heat or Clippers lose. But I think my first theory is right

    Exactly but people wont listen, even if they are real it doesnt matter, doesnt determine any outcomes, and isnt telling how much money is on what and therefore shouldnt be taken into consideration

    A lot of people on here did. Looking on here some ppl talked me out of it but my gut was saying go with Cuse. I honestly think it is better to not come here before you make your bets.

    no clue where you going with that? to be fair was the cuse/pit line really off? kp had pit-1 id say that was pretty damn accurate minus a crazy ass shot by ennis, really wasnt a good play side wise in that gm imo. total was lovely tho.. seriously where did you want the line? didnt pit basically hold the lead wire to almost wire? they blew it but kenpom or the line wasnt really "off"..
