    Do you want to know what the lines should be, or what they will be. This is a great exercise for everyone to do actually. I do it everyday.

    Virginia vs Miami-line should be -5.5, probably will open right around that at-5.

    Gtown vs. Louville- Line should be -3, but line will be -5, maybe even a little more

    Syracuse vs. Providence-line should be right around where you have it -8 maybe -8.5, but if you look at who Providence has played at home and what the lines have been in those games, don't be surprised to see this one open at -6 maybe less.

    Rutgers vs. Seaton Hall-Battle of New Jersey, Seaton Hall is much better team, but -12 is high, I say the line should be -8, but the books will adjust up to -10, so that the rec books will no longer have to post a moneyline on the game.

    Northern Iowa vs. Evansville-well this one is probably the hardest one to call, last time they played at top of the year, Northern Iowa was -15.5 at home, now the standard swing from one home court to another, ignoring all other factors is 6. So that would put the line at 9.5, but Evansville has been cold, Northern Iowa just had big win on TV against Old Dominion. So they will probably inflate the line by 2 points, so I'll say -11.5

    Tenn vs. Florida- Well last time they played, line was 8.5, 6 point move from home court to home court makes it 2.5, but FLorida is awesome at home, so the line should be a pk. I feel that lines makers will be setting up bettors in this one though. I have Florida opening at -2.

    Hofstra vs. North Eastern-Last time line was -3.5, 6 point swing puts it at -9.5, but Hofstra has won 4 in a row, and North Eastern coming off a loss. I got this one at -7.5.

    New Mexico vs. Colorado State-Last but not least, this one should be -7, but don't be surprised when you see it open at -4.5, and Colorado state wins game outright.

    Hope I helped a little, this is a great exercise for everyone to do, to improve their capping skills.
