    Butler-2.5 vs. Valparaiso-any thoughts

    But -2.5
    I think Butler has proven that they are tough and consistent on the road. They have also won their last 9 of 10 SU while Val has gone 4-6 SU (including their 2 home loses to Loyal-Chicago and Wis-Milwaukee). Butler has also won the last 3 match-ups between these 2 teams.

    I'm thinking Butler by 5-10pts

    I was siding with Valparaiso here, but if Huff is OUT, I will back off. If Huff plays, I will probably be on the Valpo ML.

    Huff is listed as QUESTIONABLE right now.

    Huff only had 7 pts in the 1st meeting and fouled out. Valpo lost by 8 thanks in large part to a huge FT disparity. Butler made 28 of 33 and Valpo 10 of 17. I'm likely on Valpo regardless of his status although certainly having a big body in there would help.

    Thanks everyone for your opinions, I think I will stay away from this one.

    I was hoping for the line to be around 8 for Valpo, but, at only 2.5 I do not think I can bet them.

    I am leaning heavily towards Valpo +3 tonight.
