Why Is Texas A&M -1?

EaglesPhan36 · 12-11-10, 03:52 PM

Washington hasn't played a true road game yet and have not been a great road team under Romar. Don't know how good A&M really is, but that's why the line is where it is I think.

Thanks eagles, cant wait to bounce thoughts back and forth for next year's tennis season.

Yeah they are good this year. A lot of offensive weapons. EP is right, they've been historically bad on the road and that's what worries me.

I'm thinking Washington should have no problem winning if they play up to their potential and don't go ice cold from the field

PAYTON20 · 12-11-10, 04:23 PM

I haven't seen Texas A&M play much, how do they look?

Washington is a top 15 team. They hung with Kentucky and Mich St on neutral courts in Hawaii...so maybe them playing on the road won't be too much of a problem. The only issue that's making me hesitate is that we haven't seen them play in another teams arena with the hostile environment. My gut still tells me Washington will find a way to win

might be the best bet... i'm still tempted right now to hit the -103 ML pretty hard

Huskies are so tempting....but rule #1 don't bet on your favourite team.

When an unranked team is favored over a ranked team, pound the unranked team.

Jessica · 12-11-10, 04:55 PM

Huskies look dead..

the12thman · 12-11-10, 05:09 PM

69 straight non conference home wins for ags

MB · 12-11-10, 05:16 PM

None against a ranked team though

PAYTON20 · 12-11-10, 05:19 PM

I didn't bet the ML... Huskies started slow out of the gate as expected

Anyone going to bet 2nd half?

I know! I usually follow the rule too but the -103 ML just looked so juicy

That has been a great strategy so far this year. Especially non-ranked teams at home...The Syracuse and Temple wins stand out to me

Not just this year -- I swear it hits at like a 70% clip.

PAYTON20 · 12-11-10, 05:29 PM

Washington +1 2nd half... ?

Homer play here I'm gonna take it. I would be more upset as a fan if Washington lost than to lose my bet. Go Dawgs. Time to break the trend No Coin

LostBankroll · 12-11-10, 05:38 PM

So whats the play in the 2nd Half?

BernardMadoff · 12-11-10, 05:41 PM

I dont like that line of +1 Im staying off this.

PAYTON20 · 12-11-10, 05:46 PM

Good start

the12thman · 12-11-10, 05:49 PM

this Ag was on U 152, and is feelin good

No coincidences · 12-11-10, 05:56 PM

Took 2H under 78.5.

23 points first 4 minutes.

No coincidences · 12-11-10, 06:46 PM

Glad I just took the A&M ML.

Avoided the push.

Another unranked fave scores the upset.

the12thman · 12-11-10, 06:54 PM

Ags have a streak of 311 games with a 3pointer made snapped

went 0-8 today from 3

last time that happened was 2001, Pre gillespie era

Should have listened to you Jessica. Another tough loss for the Dawgs... they can't figure it out on the road
