    Well, if you know what side Vegas is on, then that's probably the right side

    UNC +1.5 (3x)

    FSU student here. Love my noles but we have been struggling bad lately. Got waxed by Maryland, lost to Miami at home, and struggled with Wake (down 16 at one point.)

    Unc has gotten their stuff together the last month. They're really coming on now. Not buying the look ahead spot with Duke, thats 3 days away.

    Think UNC's bigs can have their way with FSU inside. FSU is awful on the defensive glass, and 7'2 Bojanovsky gets pushed around too much. The only thing that concerns me is UNC's awful free throw shooting.

    So Carolina's red hot (six straight wins both SU and ATS), they have a much better record than FSU, and obliterated FSU twice last year while sweeping the season series (all three games counting the ACC tourney). Yet they're +1 here?

    Interesting.

    Line definitely does not make any sense, which is certainly a bad sign for my heels. They are playing very well after a schizophrenic start, and FSU at 14-10 overall seemed like a formality heading into the dook game. I really thought we would be favored every game the rest of the regular season except the two dook games so being a dog to a mediocre FSU is a shocker to me.

    Logically, I think most of the public would have put UNC at a 5-6 point fav in this game. It's a very odd line.

    Tough spot for UNC. Played yesterday, travelled to Florida.... Have to fly back and prepare for duke.. Tough tough spot. I think it explains the line

    Really no reason at all for Carolina to not be at least -2 here. I personally expected -3.

    This line still baffles me. Every single part of me feel like I woulda taken unc -6 or 7.
    And yet I'm getting +1...

    I'm lost.

    It doesn't mean they'll just lay down for FSU. They won't come off a big win and lay down for FSU to focus on Duke. Doesn't make any sense.

    the way i think, it makes more sense to me that they would sleep walk though a game like tomorrow. off a big win, huge game up next. its tough for even college athletes to play at a max level each and every game.

    would be nice if kenny pom gave us fsu backers a few points...

    Agree, FSU -1 or nothing. UNC has their biggest game of the season on deck and has been in great form, FSU needs this game much more. Line says it all (not because Heels will lay down but because the extra game creates such a tough motivational spot). BTW, Kenpom has Noles, 74-71.

    Also like Towson tomorrow.

    Game that i cannot figure out is Okie State/Baylor. Gotta figure that Okie State gave max effort vs Sooners Saturday and will be down after blowing that game late. At the same time, Baylor is borderline unbackable until they hire a coach (though worth noting that they have owned Pokes in recent meetings, covering 5 of 6).

    Tough to call line def off but we have seen Vegas gift wrapping bets for squares in recent days Cuse at Pitt and Gators at Kuntucky to name a couple big ones. Sometimes it just makes sense to back the better or hotter team at times. It is Monday tho and fading Vegas on Monday is a losing proposition overall. Lean Noles slightly here

    Trap line in a trap game.....UNC ML for me. Gonna fade the forum sharps (not fading just to fade--think unc wins) and if I win, I will cash out tomorrow.

    PS- I was on Cuse at Pitt and had the Florida ML at KY. lmao

    Site I use says 92% on UNC with UNC as top public bet and FSU still 3rd place public bet. And the line has not moved.....pulled the trigger last night as soon as I saw the line. I will say that although I usually try to ignore this type of thing (sharp vs square) but if I hadnt pulled the trigger already, I might have gone the other way....

    Yes you have to pay the $20 but it gives you access to other parts of the data bank as well.

    Easy money = go with the other team. Happens about 75% of the time when "easy money" is posted.
