Wish I could of grabbed MN at -4.5 instead of -5!

PRiiMO · 01-26-11, 01:11 PM

when did you take it? take it again at 4.5 if your confident

PRiiMO · 01-26-11, 01:12 PM

its too fishy to take right now. these lines that i listed are messed up. the seton hall vs syracuse did this yesterday too. seton hall smoked syracuse. wise guys arent dumb

Duquense line is fine, they'll win by at least 20, fordham should be in division 2

would love to see some actual stats that back up following reverse line movment thus far in NCAA baskets.
It is something that everyone talks about but in my experience seems to hit about 50% of the time - at least this season thus far.

well im thinking it has more accountability in the more popular games no?

SDSU seems to be moving the wrong way too, not a good sign...

PRiiMO · 01-26-11, 01:39 PM

sdsu started at +5 and is now +5.5 thats goin the right way

61% of bets on SDSU (thespread.com). Line has gone from +4.5 to +5.5 since it opened. It's reverse line movement. I don't know if it's enough to care about. But no way I'm betting against BYU in this one. Very tough place to play in a big game like this.

The RLM I've had my eye on, though, is Nova/Providence. With 82% on Nova, their line has moved (at some books at least) from -6 to -5.5. Somebody thinks Providence is going to give Nova a game tonight at home -- like they have this month against St. John's, and Pitt, and, of course, Louisville.

i have NOVA at 5.5 from 6 with 67% and sdsu 51% +5.5

PRiiMO · 01-26-11, 02:05 PM

i'll keep my eye on these, thanks.

though some of the numbers i'm seeing are a little different and/or not as intruiging as yours.

I thought the line was moving in Nova's favor? For BYU to cover, SDSU would have to play they way they did when Wisconsin-Green Bay and IUPUI almost smoked them.
