The highest total of the year in NCAA goes today, can you spell under??? Line is off

WhatAboutMeBitch · 02-13-10, 11:55 AM

nova should put up close to 100 today

playersonly69 · 02-13-10, 11:59 AM

What would make you say that?? Have you even looked at their stats from this year?

They have scored over 100 points on 1 occassion all season and that was against Penn!! NO REASON at all to justify scoring more than 100. I am not saying that they wont score 90 points though.

But a 90-75 final score results in 165 points

WhatAboutMeBitch · 02-13-10, 12:01 PM

in the last 7 games Providence has averaged giving up 86.5 points a game vs low scoring big east opponents. Nova is not your typical big east opponent. both teams love to run run run run

playersonly69 · 02-13-10, 12:04 PM

Maybe so, but in their last 5 games, they are only giving up 80 points. Again, I FULLY expect 90 points from Villanova. But I could EASILY see them winning the game by only scoring 80 points

WhatAboutMeBitch · 02-13-10, 12:09 PM

you basically got the two highest scoring offenses in the big east going against the two highest point allowing defenses. with two up tempo styles.

keep in mind nova has scored 90 or more in almost 50% of their games. (10 out of 23) and this is while playing in one of the top defensive conferences where most teams give up in the mid-low 60's a game

i'm not saying it won't win, but I don't see alot working in your favor here

whatsgood5 · 02-13-10, 12:09 PM

I actually like the over here. Still a bit higher than I had expected though.

whatsgood5 · 02-13-10, 12:10 PM

I like Nova to cover here as well, should be an exciting game.

let me look into this...

ZBOIZ · 02-13-10, 12:23 PM

dont touch it. this is a coin flip

GiveMeaBJ · 02-13-10, 12:33 PM

96-84

james4512 · 02-13-10, 12:41 PM

this game will go under simply because providence wont get to 75, villanova plays good defense and providence really doesnt have that many weapons

2daBank · 02-13-10, 12:48 PM

if nova gets to 100 id say provo goes for 80.....no way i touch this...gl

1UP · 02-13-10, 12:52 PM

Too high to play, but I wouldn't be surprised if they hit the Over in regulation. Other than Nova's traps, there's really nothing either team can really do to stop the other. I can see Nova in the 85-100 area and Providence at least hitting 80.

what makes you say that nova plays good defense? do you see how many points they give up per game? compared to other big east schools, it is very very high. they play run and gun simple as that.

nosniboR11 · 02-13-10, 12:57 PM

this is a very interesting total

playersonly69 · 02-13-10, 12:59 PM

The final score wont even touch 165 in this game

Maddhatter · 02-13-10, 01:02 PM

I'll take the O165! For sure this is something to see if it does go over 175. Its high but as most have already said... its also possible. I am not touching the total although I like Nova in this spot.

ok obviously you dont EVER watch villanova play, when you play fast and loose your going to give up points just a fact of life, but when their in the half court there a very solid defense

In my opinion theres no way you should ever take the over, just one 5 minute lull where there is a lack of scoring will completely ruin your play so the under is the only bet

playersonly69 · 02-13-10, 01:07 PM

Hell with this total, even a 2 MINUTE lull in the action makes it impossible for an over. And at the spread of -14, really not much chance of an overtime

Carseller4 · 02-13-10, 01:08 PM

Got it at 176. I took the under.

Good Luck!

playersonly69 · 02-13-10, 01:12 PM

At what books can I currently sell points to get the game at +140 or +150 or higher?

Sure Villanova does combine for the most points in college basketball, but this shit is crazy. Their highest totals of the year previous were 165.5 on 2 occassions and both of those games went under rather easily at 152 and 162 points.

Providence highest total of the year was 168 and that game only resulted in 153 points.

Most totals for both of these teams are in the mid and lower 150's. Judging by the spread, not much chance of an overtime here. So that helps the under.

I just feel that this total was placed AT LEAST 10 points too high. I would probably take it under a 165 as well

if they post a line this high, they are begging you to take the under. Over is the play!

The highest total was 180

Crayzee · 02-13-10, 02:02 PM

bet it over or dont bet

just like all the idiots that bet the nba rookie game under

Jaug · 02-13-10, 02:06 PM

No way the line is 10 points off. Villanova can shoot 70% from the field and providence always puts up points. Should be a shootout.

Wow Z, a full minute of research. Although that is about 45 seconds more than usual.

Over or no play here. BOL.

southpaw74 · 02-13-10, 02:34 PM

Nova let gtown almost roll a honeybee on them...can't see under as a good play. Or the over. Just bet small if you need the action cuz who knows in this one! GL boys

Maddhatter · 02-13-10, 02:52 PM

Anyone know the 1H O/U?

Patrick McIrish · 02-13-10, 03:04 PM

Looking good for the under players, one more half to go.

Unchained · 02-13-10, 03:11 PM

MadHatter O/U for me was 84 1st half
They have to prove me wrong again. 2nd half I got U89

The fiddler · 02-13-10, 03:23 PM

Right now...the under looks more promising...with a 46-44 score with 15 plus to go. I've got the dog plus 14.5...which means of course Nova wins 102-87 in OT

playersonly69 · 02-13-10, 03:51 PM

If my 165 total is close, then someone here needs to give me 50 points or so this time. Hell no one has ever given me points, but i have handed them out!

I parlayed the under with Butler too! Butler is rocking at this time. And no I DIDNT bet it at the SBR sportsbook. I did take it in both of my contests that I am in
