wow pac10 sucks

I'm gonna be betting Washington money line.

I'm gonna be betting Washington money line.

You should have already gotten down Raiders, line was 5 when this came out so obviously the Washington ML has decreased as well. Do you think the line is going to go back up for your wager?

For the record (and I will admit afterwards if I'm wrong) I think this might be an example of people putting too much emphasis on an injury. Their guard play has been erratic all year long, if you have to lose anyone that's the place to do it. WV by 15 or so....

Im with you on that one man people getting to hyped up over one player on a talented WVU team. I really wanna see both teams get killed hahaha but that isnt gonna happen one of them is gonna come out and I still think its gonna be WVU

This is huge news, although most people don't seem to realize just how much this will effect West Virginia on Thursday. The Mountaineers have struggled with teams with good front courts all year long and teams that could speed them up had good success. Washington will be pushing the tempo all night. Now with Bryant out the Mountaineers are left with Joe Mazulla. While Mazulla was good years ago his last start was in 2008 when he hurt his shoulder. Since that shoulder injury he has shot the ball much worse and is even shooting lefty now. After Mazulla they had no other point guard that saw more then 10 minutes per night.

One thing they like to do is let Butler or Ebanks run the point with five forwards on the floor. That could be a problem because whoever is running the point is going to have to guard Thomas and Bryant was the best match up for him, now it has to be Mazulla.

The door is wide open for a Washington upset.

WAshington +points and ML , Washington good team,and this injury helps them very much

Please everyone, keep putting that money on UW. Get that line down so I can put my money on WVU.

This injury will mean nothing in the game tomorrow. UW is going to get beat because they are going to get killed on the boards.

So do you beleive they will not lose anything on defense with Mazulla? Also, how deep are they at guard? Who comes off bench now?

[GoldRush7]

He averaged less than 10 pts/game and even more importantly only 3 assists per game....oh and he also led the team in turnovers... I don't think there is much to be missed here... WVU will dominate the boards and I think that will be the most important factor. I hope people see this as a big deal and start betting Washington so it brings the line down....

Not going to matter that much, I can't believe people are reacting to this injury like this.
