i wouldnt be surprised at all

No coincidences · 02-09-11, 11:33 PM

I'm not making another play until this game, and I'm taking the Wisconsin ML.

sh35109 · 02-09-11, 11:33 PM

right now i lean OSU... too strong inside, that carries you on the raod. Wisky will struggle down the stretch physically

Brock Landers · 02-09-11, 11:35 PM

No chance, OSU will be the favorite

Not betting against this team, they find ways to win even when not at their best, like at Northwestern

crustyme · 02-09-11, 11:35 PM

hell no.

onlooker · 02-09-11, 11:38 PM

Regardless, Wisconsin is winning it.

LT Profits · 02-09-11, 11:41 PM

Line won't be higher than -2 either way, so phrases like "no chance" and "hell no" are a tad harsh.

rm18 · 02-09-11, 11:44 PM

Wisky -1

brooks85 · 02-09-11, 11:46 PM

buckeyes look good here, this is going to be just like all the other close games they keep winning

Brock Landers · 02-09-11, 11:47 PM

Ohio st will be a big play for me here, Love Wisconsin at home, but they haven't even been pushed there really. Reality time for them.

BernardMadoff · 02-09-11, 11:48 PM

No surprise.

Prop Bet Master · 02-10-11, 12:29 AM

16 game home winning streak, 149-11 at the Kohl Center under Bo Ryan, 75-6 against Big Ten teams. I wouldn't bet against them!

Gonad · 02-10-11, 01:19 AM

OSU is good, but they ain't THAT good... Curious to see the line; agree it will land at 2 or less, likely in the Bucks favor... As a fan, and I know the media is spouting the same thing, would like to see them gain a little humility and take a hit or two before the tournament... Really, they'll go 40-0? Not bloody likely... They only go 7 deep, but it's a solid seven...

Will prolly bet Wisky, and root the other way...

Was leaning OSU but if it becomes a rubber dick play then I have to go Badgers or no play.

Sunde91 · 02-10-11, 02:52 AM

Doubt it.

Last highest rated team in Madison was #6 Duke last year, and they were like -4.5.

Wisconsin won, and is more respected now relative to that point last year, but OSU should be a good -2.5.

But Wisconsin is the biggest overachiever in the regular season, and biggest underachiever in the tournament, and they're the best at home, so they will probably win.

spargament · 02-10-11, 03:19 AM

This game has far too much build for a game against an undefeated team, in the sense that I believe media are giving more than Wisconsin's share of due to the badgers, been flashing that home in conference record on the espn bottom line like a drunk chick at spring break.
I feel exactly about this game as i did about the one against Minny, the better team wins the game.

yurnero · 02-10-11, 03:23 AM

its very very hard to bet against osu, even at wisky...

i'm not an expert but wow osu has been so impressive

tony_come · 02-10-11, 03:26 AM

I like Wisconsin here

don't talk too much ppl shhhhh

LLXC · 02-10-11, 03:37 AM

Will probably open as a PK

Think you're right.Factoring in HC and the BL post,Wisky should win by 8 or 9.

shawnkang · 02-10-11, 04:31 AM

thanks for saving me some money broke landers. no play for me.

dmtrader · 02-10-11, 06:14 AM

Wisconsin is so tough at home - those guys will be raining 3s on the Buckeyes.

AbeFroman · 02-10-11, 06:41 AM

Not sure why anyone would touch this game for a betting purpose. I see no clear way to gain an edge, but that's just me. BOL!

CBASS · 02-10-11, 07:11 AM

Wisky HEAVY

Willie Bee · 02-10-11, 09:29 AM

Thanks for the warning, LT, you know how much I hate surprises

Will be rooting for Bo Ryan and Company, but will be tempted to take Buckeyes plus points.

VegasInsider · 02-10-11, 09:30 AM

I'll be all over Ohio State at PK or a dog..

LChruscial85 · 02-10-11, 09:58 AM

Wisconsin will beat them....and have a great sports year by beating THE OHIO STATE in both football and basketball. Would be somethin wouldn't it? Wasn't OSU #1 when they played Wisconsin in Football this past season? Would be a hell of a season for that program! Go Badgers!

EasyHustlin · 02-10-11, 10:07 AM

Cannot wait for this game, leaning Ohio state

ouman101 · 02-10-11, 10:18 AM

I'm with you LT. I'm a huge Ohio State fan, and know how tough (damn near impossible) it is to win at Wisconsin. I don't know what the stats are, but I know they are undefeated at home this year and up until last year (I beleive) they had the nation's longest win streak at home. SO with those combined they are around 50 and 1 or 2 at home over the last few years. I was hoping that OSU would be favored so that I could get a little dog money, but either way, If I bet this, it'll be on Wisconsin. Plus, the Bucks haven't really played that well on the road and with a freshman laden team, you never know what they'll do when they get in that type of environment.

BigDaddy · 02-10-11, 10:27 AM

Ohio st will be -3.5 to -4 favorite in this game

no way and i mean no way in hell is wisky the favorite
