Vcu-1

[THE PROFIT]

Would the NCAA have this game pre-fixed to make it go to 3 games? A team cant beat a team by 13 one night & then lose 2 days later. Not this team. VCU is superior to them in every way.

And the 129. Im so fukin pissed about last night. That game was easily an over game. They score 124 & dont score the last 3-4 minutes? I didnt get to watch, can someone tell me why there were no points in basically the last 5 minutes

[THE PROFIT]

With the linesmakers looking for this to be a closer game, will STL step & score as much as VCU did last night or will it be closer to the points STL scored last night?

Need your opinions here guys, I didnt get to watch

[BernardMadoff]

Happens all the time, look at any teams schedule and you will see games where they beat a team by 10 or more at home but when they play them on the road they lose by 5 or more, with that said I did put 2k on VCU.

RI???

[THE PROFIT]

RI???

Thanks for catching that, was looking at some RI stats when I wrote that. Long day

[NardVa]

I like St Louis will win game two straight up. You figure VCU had to win the first game knowing the next two were gone be in St Louis. I think St Louis will force a game 3 at least.

refs will try and force a third game but this VCU team will be too good for the refs and St Louis.

[twoods215]

VCU will roll here. They have the momentum and will close out the series tonight and make sure there isn't a game three.

[2PLAYSMAX]

I still like VCU to cover that tonight and seal it up. I think Saint Louis will need a tremendous FG% to win, which I don't see happening.

[Facepunch]

I like a closer game but -1 or -1.5 is still a cover able spread. I got VCU -1.5 + Over 129

[Dukebluejms]

Under 129 is the play for me and the gut is telling me STL. Similar to last night, Vegas is usually spot on. I think this a trap line. Vegas wants everyone on VCU at -1 because they know they are the better team, but think they will lose. Be very careful with this game, trap game from hell...

[Snowball]

love VCU but can't touch it. They are basically telling us the fix is in.
The line is 8 points off. There are no gifts. No play.

[THE DEVIL]

this may be a trap a classic trap im stayinmg away myself

[ezmoney]

Public 86% on VCU, another bad sign. No play.

EZ

VCU is not superior.
SLU is injured.
They start 3 guards and have no reserves; guards # 4-5-6 are injured.
#6 broke thumb late vs GB and Princeton is slow down team.
BUT VCU presses like MF's and has plenty of reserves.
Billiken guards were out of gas.
Same will probably happen tonite.
But Majerus is magical, he may be able to pull it off. Slow it down, break the press.
SLU SF Ellis also has injured shoulder, his 3's are way off...
If SLU was healthy, they would take the series IMO.
All freshmen and sophs... are jelling.
Next year, kids mature, a few good recruits, SLU will be a team to watch.
I might take the + 1.5 for a small, small move.

Those guards werent even contributing when they were healthy.

exactly. this is taking a lot of discipline not to go hard on vcu but like snowball said- there are no gifts and vegas is not stupid.''

if this line doesnt move to -2, -2.5ish by gametime, something is really really wrong. more wrong than it already is at -1

[Glitch]

if they throw this game and make a few dollars, they can just come right back and beat the inferior team later and still win the championship?? no thanks

[cadillac pete]

I am not going to read into this line too much and over analyze it. I think VCU has too much to throw at the Bilikens. Laying the -1 here.

[THE PROFIT]

VCU and over looks too easy. Like a gift from the gambling gods

[Serbone]

You know not what you speak of.
The backup guards played ferocious "D", and gave the starters needed breathers..
Majerus has decidd that SLU will stop the "3".
SLU was # 1 in USA in 3 pt FG % defense a week or so ago, I saw the rankings.
SO even though Femi John and Justin Jordan did not put up a lot of points (their other guard Reid was basically out after 6 games) they helped give the 3 starters a breather and were very good defenders.
Against a team like VCU, with the press, this is a key issue.
Sometimes Monday VCU would have 3 guys attack the SLU ballhandler in the backcourt... maybe Majerus will figure a way to get it over them and get a fast break in the frontcourt. But SLU just not deep enough to withstand the charge and the wave of VCU bodies.

[Snowball]

there's always a 2nd half.. since the game line is low it could present opportunity.
For example if VC is up they will be getting points.
If St. Louis is up, you know it's rigged.

They'll be getting points for the 2H but not for the game!!!

I like to find big favs down 1H & get them + for the game

[THE PROFIT]

Missouri St last night a prime example.

6 point fav down 6 at the half. They were -5 for the 2H which is +1 for the game. Easy money

[THE PROFIT]

Here's my next question!

If my memory serves me correct, Pomeroy had the projection for Mondays game at VCU winning by 7. On Monday evening before the game had even started he had Tonights game on there with the projection of VCU winning by 1! If his projections are purely statistical it looks like he was giving VCU 5-6 points for home court, or how do you come up with VCU winning by one not knowing what kind of outcome game 1 has.

Whats f-ed up about Pomeroy is they had TWO scores for the 1 game...VCU winning both, 67-60 and 67-64. I'm positive on the 67-60, thinking 67-64 was the 2nd score. There's a thread on one of the forums I read, I'll try and find it.

[dknight734]

anyone like unc for tomorrow?

Missouri st was easy at -6 for game but your right the halftime line was sweet

Home court and how well the other team plays on the road.

[THE PROFIT]

VCU L5 on the road their average score is 72.8
STL L5 at home their average score is 59.6

[sweethook]

i dont think vc scores as much tonight as last game so i like the under 128- and i like dayton - 2- or 3 or 12 , i had unc last night cas i tho they would rule the boards they did , BUT the last 27sec of reg they had time out score was tied and didnt do shet run clock down to 5 sec and shot a 3 pointer & missed , i no the coach didnt want that no way and if he call a 3pointer i say unc coach is way over rated or players just dont no the game so that = DAYTON bigggggg

[THE PROFIT]

VCU players have their heart set on ending this tonight to get home for a rap concert Thursday night. VCU all the way!
