I am going against you Big Boy. I have the Spartans -4, Parlay MSU -4 and under 150 and a straight bet under 150.

I think the Spartans are starting to hit their stride and will easily cover this number. The Spartans have a really good bench and will throw waves of players at Bradley. The Spartans beat Bradley last year. I think the Spartans will start off slow because the crowd will be fired up at Bradley, but in the end they will cover this number. GGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
SSSSSSSSSPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRTTTTTT TAAAAAAANNNNSSSS!!!!!!!!

I thought I was done for sure when MSU went up by 7 with 6 seconds left on the clock, but they got that meaningless hoop to cover for me.

Congrats Big Boy. I am a Spartan fan and I was at a local saloon. When the last shot (not alcohol) went down, I was thinking about both our bets and how we both won. I am a very happy Spartan fan tonight. I like hitting all three bets in one game: the cover, parlay and under. Pretty cool.

Congrats wish they all could be like this. Basketball is tough to win because teams can score so quickly.

Yes, I know. I lost a recent game when Illinois gave up a ton of points at the end of the game.

I swore I was not going to play basketball again, but here I am playing some games. Hopefully, once FB is over, I won't have any reason to have money in my accounts. BB is just such a tough sport to handicap. I think you are better off playing the -1 or ML or playing some heavy favorites (i.e NC tonight, KU last week). The totals in my mind are even more difficult as it always seems to fall within 5 or 10 points, which means your sweating the bet the whole way. I am not sure about anyone else, but I rarely get easy wins in BB. I would say 20% of the time I get pretty relaxing wins in FB and Baseball. Anyone else agree or am I just a bad capper for BB.
