Atlantic Sun Conference Final: Belmont vs. Jacksonville U

[Otters27]

Matchbook does not have this line available yet. Saw a PK at some.

I would say Belmont goes down this time.

They beat JU twice this year. Hard to beat teams 3 times.

Although the game is at Lipscomb U. 3 miles down the street. Basically home crowd for Belmont.

My plays is JU. I would wait I think the line will go in favor of JU over the day.

[Otters27]

damn JU +6. Jump on it!

Otters,

This is kind of a blind pick for me, as I don't know much about either team. With the automatic bid on the line and with Jax trying to revenge 2 reg season losses, I like the formula to produce a competitive game.

Anyone know how each team shoots FTs in case of a close one?

[Otters27]

Sorry I misinformed. Belmont only played JU once this season.

Won by 7.

Belmont Shoots 70% from the line and JU shoots 73%.

Belmont averages 10.5 3's per game.

Either way Jacksonville is still avenging a loss.

I used to play baseball at Belmont. They have made the Dance the last 2 years. Covered both spreads in the conference final because they were -1-PK. This time I think the line is inflated do to the fact that Belmont only has two conference losses and have not lost since JAN 24th.

Line is dropping. 5.5 now. Belmont is a quality small conference team. They beat Cincinnati and Alabama on the road - yes, neither is great - but they're better than JaX - and they took a quality Wright State team to OT before losing by 4. They've won 12 straight and know how to win this thing, hard to pick against that.

Good feedback guys. I should have done more of it own my own. Will sit this one out. Appreciate the different takes.

Otters-GL to you.

EaglesPhan-Sounds like you are not playing this one but I value and concur with that input.

[Otters27]

way off on this one. Sorry guys.

Belmont blowing them out!
