    A couple of numbers the sharps might be attacking
    Georgetown/WVU: the total was set at 137, and 92% at my book (so far) are on the over. Yet it's now at 136.5.

    Fresno State: Vast majority of the public, again, is backing Utah State, yet the number went from -15 to 14.5.

    Just some food for thought.

    Those .5 point moves are insignificant. Once it moves 2 pts or more, than you should pay attention.

            Sportsbook.

            In any event, I like that it's dropping.

                  Georgetown will come today with fire...it could go over....and the most important thing.....public wins 50% of times .....and sharps win 60-65% of the times .

                  I am not saying it wont go under...all I am saying is there are better games than this total which is a coin toss.

                      Much respect to you sir, good research. But this could also lead to believe thus is a head fake by the book to get action on the other side?

                        you know im pretty new to totals still(good though)but from what ive noticed on totals i really dont give a shit about the percentages or movement ive had a bunch of overs i was on go down sometimes with more on the over other times with more on the under...of coarse some like fla st/clem i liked at und at 132 but let ppl bet it up all day before a took the under but basically unlike sides when i got the game going over or under i take it dont even stress about the rest and dont add totals to my card based off movement i either liked it or didnt

                          Never know. Like I said, I'm on a cold streak, so it wouldn't surprise me.

                            Percentages, are of more significance in accordance to side, than totals.

                            B/c totals are not as heavily bet on as sides. So a books handle on a game can be three times the size on the side, when compared to the total.

                            Totals less difficult to beat, and the lower limits that books will take on them is all you need to know.

                                betting totals is still tough, b/c you need to figure out a teams tempo, if they get to the FT line, and if they hit their FT's.

                                Use kenpoms website, and its all the stats you need.http://kenpom.com/rate.php

                                            Houlihans...whenever I decide to tail your plays....I always loose....this has happened 5 times already. If you are saying this game is going under, I actually like the Over here...sorry bro...but tailing you has been burning money.

                                              Check the series trends. This game hasn't gone over 136 since 2003 (9 games). I like the under.

                                                  i hate trends...ive seen 4 or 5 real good ones over the years but this one imo means absolutely nothing....not saying i dont like the under thats the way i leaned but i cant play it as i feel like i should have got the better number or passed...just saying that trend is irrelevant on whether or not ths game goes under

                                                            Because if you faded me in the past 4 days you would be sucking cock for rent money by now.
