South Florida +9 @ Marquette

skrtelfan · 02-13-10, 07:43 AM

9 looks about right to be. Teams that overachieve like South Florida have tend to get inflated in the lines a bit and I think Marquette is pretty underrated. Their away loss to Depaul was brutal but other than that, they've had a pretty tough schedule losing to some very good teams, and they kept most of those close. Their only big loss was away to Wisconsin and even that was only by 9.

i got a hard time seeing marq cover this number...its possible and i like marq but this game should be a battle both teams with a lot to play for id either take the points or pass.....gl

I think Marqutte puts in a huge efforts and wins going away. They always seem to step their game up a notch or two at home. I think it will be tough for SFLA to play within the number here.

South Florida has been over achieving all year long, they are due for a let down. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they went on a skid to end this year. That being said i think 9 is too high. I would cap this at +6 for USF. Marquette wins, USF covers.

As a Marquette fan I feel this team plays very hard but they are a 3 pt shooting team who needs to hit. I think South Fla speed and atheleticsm give Marq fits and they will cover the 9 for sure and may win.

Two teams I don't trust. I don't think +9 is off, I'd call it a coin flip.

South Florida might just win the game straight up

I'm going to put a bet on south florida. Nine points seems like a good deal.

Marquette with the lucky cover. South florida is a seriously underestimated team. After watching the game yesterday I have got to say they are not overachieving but more like underestimated. Marquette had no business laying 9 points here, they did not even attempt offensive rebounds. That's right they were already back on d after putting up a shot.e

Look out for south florida as dogs, seems like a great team to bet.

USF blows.

cadillac pete · 02-14-10, 09:02 AM

Fortunate to cover. I thought the game would play out totally diiferent. I guess I am still waiting for SFLA to hit that wall and be the team I've known them to be. That may come later.

With a decent coach, USF would be legit TOP TEN team.......as is, they may not make the Big Dance..........what a shame.

Might be true. They got some wicked size and quite good hustle. On top of that, like someone here wrote: can't teach big and black

This game killed me yesterday

jjgold · 02-14-10, 11:56 AM

Game buried a lot of guys, most were on South Florida

It was the right play
