Seems like 24th ranked Missouri which averages about 16 ppg more than nebraska deserves to be a slight favorite in this matchup. But vegas made then 1 pt dog. They are 1-3 ATS and 0-4 SU as a road dog this season. Tricky game...

I disagree.

Nebraska has been playing well winning 3 of their last 5 including a win against Texas, and the Kansas State game going down to the wire. Throw the road trip from Iowa State out the window, and Missouri's sketchy play on the road making this line. Looks about right to me.

This is a tricky one I mean mizz freaking sux on the road ats like not even worth betting type suck record but if u strongly believe nebraska covers this game will def go over 140 so I wannna see what the line is when it opens up

As someone who follows Mizz I was certain of their loss on Saturday but that game would be lose-lose to bet on.

My guy instinct says Nebraska takes this one, Mizzou is the trap here given +1 when I think it should be +3. I didnt see the game Saturday but they kept it close to K State most of the game.
As this season has gone, Tuesdays normally buck the trend...can anyone speak to Mizzou winning this one? I don't see it, but would not be surprised if they pulled it off.

What makes you think mizzu can't get it done. In your opinion what makes Nebraska too much for mizzu to handle ?

Well I believe if nebraska wins this game they will have to score ovver 70 points mizz is a high scoring team if the over under is around 145 I'm takin the over now if nebraska loses I'm not to sure

I agree with Freeze. Mizzou needs a win for the Big 12 tourney, but it's hard for me to believe they can get it done on the road. I agree it has to be high scoring for Nebraska to win. Mizzou relies on pressure defense and a press to get it done. When you have the crowd behind you and youre getting pressed up and down the court its hard to get in a rhythm. Meanwhile they take a lot of jump shots and don't particularly have JJ Reddick (at Duke) type shooters. Jump shooting teams on the road in college are not reliable and while they use transition and fast break to get the easy buckets its hard to say if opposing coaches have adjusted to their style or if they have figured out how to play well without a home crowd.

I was going to say that Mizzou could barely win at a below average Iowa State team, but Nebraska lost there so it's hard to gauge.
This is a hard one to gauge, I do like Mizzou first half though, from there its hard to say.

I played Nebraska

This is a real tough one to figure out.

It is Senior Night in Nebraska and a must win for the Cornhuskers.

Mizzou is garbage on the road.

freeze · 03-01-11, 01:20 PM

Oh wow I'm on the over in this game if y'all really think nebraska is goin to win and I was leanin that way over 140 looks good to me
