    the thing is about minnesota is it makes more sense to just by the hook and make it -1 at -120 and just play it str8, dont you think?

    what's up westside.... we are gonna have a winner tomorrow

    wow yeah... detroit lost 13 in a row so hard to see how they can have revenge on their mind for the tough home loss, if so they are gunning for revenge against the whole great lakes area....

    Wisc Mil looks like a solid play, but often in college basketball, and inexplicably those tend to be the ones that kill you and tank a whole parlay that had all winners in it

    ...seems like good value too in these types of parlays at only -180

    wisconsin, marquette, and drake are in those loses...and two others are conference games...the other 2 losses are against above .500 teams too...i think sam houston st is 16-something and northern iowa is like 13-8

    stay away from this game...Detroit has lost their last 6 games by 10 or less...13 in a row overall...Wisc mil has won 9 of 10 and only a 4 pt spread?? I'd stay away...

    it did look too good to be true...theyve lost to some quality teams but losing streaks are bound to end i.e. the sonics

    South Alabama -2 at N Texas....I've been following S Alabama and have cashed a few plays on them...N Texas has lost 3 straight games and were favored in all of them....
    S Alabama 17-3....13 wins in a row...5-3 on the road..
    3 losses were Old Miss (16-3) Vandy (17-4) and Ohio (9-10)

    N Texas 12-7 ....9-2 at home...14 of 19 games N Texas has had more turnovers than their opponents...with the 3 straight favored losses they have given up over 50% shooting in all of them...last two vs Fla Atlantic (8-14) Midd Tenn St (8-11)

    3 game skid for Minn....

    Tubby is too good a coach to lose a fourth str8 to the likes of Michigan, Minn is starting to slip in Big Ten standings.... he is gonna want the conference win against one of its easiest foes

    ha ha yeah...i think ill just put wisc mil on a $5 8 team parlay minus the points...im really liking minnesota with how low the ML is and how god awful michigan is...i havent been impressed with michigan at all in the games ive seen...and minnesota has been playing pretty good besides that loss at OSU...westside will find something to make me sway away from minn if its truly a bad ML

    Mich is at home, and it is a bitter big ten rivalry, but Minn should still be favored in this one by at least 4 or 5

    Looking ahead to Wisc game at home this weekend?? but how can you be looking ahead when you lost three in a row, i think that would focus you on the task at hand.... taking down a crappy michigan team

    with the line at -1 1/2, it almost looks like vegas is giving us a gift, and i know for a fact, they never, ever do that

    ok, starting to see why the line is so low...

    the statistics for a strange reason really dont give a decisive edge to either team.... about even in rebounding, turnovers and free throw shooting (to me the three biggest stats that matter)

    actually Mich turns the ball over a little less than Minn and shoots better from the stripe

    Notre Dame looks solid.... if it wasnt for PC's big upset at UConn, it would be a no brainer as outside of that one win they suck on the road

    NDame won 10 str8 at home and only two losses at home were by 1 point and 4 pts (to a tough baylor team), I am feeling really confident with ND -400 in one of these....

    in fact:

    Minn
    ND

    would payout at +121 with just those two

    ok so we got

    ND -400
    Wa St -600

    that would mean you would need one more team at at least -200 (no higher than -300) to make a three teamer at even money
