    I like the over. Drake off a loss scares me off any side action.


    Good luck

    I'm not betting this one, but until Drake proves otherwise - they are the best ATS team in D1 - I wouldn't be against them especially at home.

    Bradley's off a big win, Drake has a letdown after clinching the division, gotta like Bradley +6.5 in this situation

    Actually, 63% of bets placed so far are on DRAKE, so this is not the same situation as last week, when over 80% were on Cornell.

    LT, see that on wagerline but every poster I follow on EOG/majorwagre/theRX and here is crazy about Bradley -- same folks who were laying 5 on Cornell.......

    yes...broken hand ...only played 17 min last game and they still beat creighton big....bradley's leading scorer ruffin didn't play in the first game vs drake and they only lost by 1..so losing the third leading scorer not as bad as it seems and it is the game after clinching the conf title...

    add in that 10 games in a row for drake have been decided by 10 pts or less...I see a close game even if drake wins

    Drake clinching the conference title means nothing...i dont see why people think they will let down because of that. Winning the conference title doesnt guarantee them anything. Thy still need to keep winning to guarantee that they can get in the big tourny without having to win their conference championship. Especially since their is a good chance they could get knocked out of their tourny against a creighton or southern illinois on a neutral court.

    Then you factor in that this game is at drake and Bradley isnt a very strong road team. and one of bradleys starting guards is out. Everyone is on bradley not sure why. im teasing this game to drake -1.5 but would feel confident laying 6.5 as well.

    west side you keep mentioning the last time they played....that game was at bradley. Im sure you know that playing at home is so much different that playing on the road. Even against the same team. Some teams dominate a team at home and win my 20+ then go play that same team on the road and lose or win by a couple. There is no comparision. That argument and the fact that "it will be a letdown game" is not very strong reasoning

    This being a letdown game is not my arguement on playing Bradley...Bradley's best player was out last game...Ruffin..and he's playing this game....Bradley has won 7 of 9 and Drake not blowing anyone out anymore is my angle on this one..I'm not saying Bradley wins..but having 3 plays Bradley +8.5,+13.5,+14.5 I feel solid about......last ten games very strong trend that can't be ignored here IMO with Drake...anyways, GL

    Don't forget that Drake's leading scorer ( young) did not play in that game either

    I root for the side that most people are on, that way the general public wins. Seems nobody has much of a case for Bradley, and there is an obvious case for Drake, who is unreal ATS. When in doubt, bet the over; although that has boosted up to 144 i believe? and that is pretty high for a Drake game. No play for me, but rooting for Drake.

    hey...I was actually hoping for your -1.5...would have been nice to see your big teaser cash...teams get up for them now...they are not a secret anymore...but they still could be a sweet 16 sleeper team in the tourny...
