    Last game of a busy weekend in sports fellows

    Oregon -10
    Oregon State +10


    I've seen some +10.5's out there but do you really want to back such a pitiful team in OSU even with an extra half point? Poorly coached, poor athletes, poor home crowd, over-matched in every aspect of basketball, etc....

    The only thing they got going for them here is that this game is a rivalry game. I am not even sure OU treats this as much of a rivalry though. I think OSU might be motivated to play well for this interm coach and try to get him that magic W. But I've seen a number of OSU games this year and man, let me tell you, Northwestern would be favored on a neutral court against this team.

    On the other hand, the over/under 140 might be worth a look. I know OU likes to push the ball up and down the court but OSU is horrible offensively. Under might be the side there.

    No idea on this late game. I am not going to bet -10 on the road even if it Oregon State, but not sure I can back OSU either.

    Last minute thoughts from anyone?

    If I had to bet a side, I'd take the over but its a no play for me.

    I need Oregon to win SU to cash a ML Parlay. . .

    I have a lot of shit on this game:

    1. Parlay: Oregon -10/Under 140
    2. Oregon -10
    3. Parlay: Oregon -10/Temple +7 (half-way there)

    I have been reading tons of professonals today and running my own numbers, I just don't see how Oregon St will stay closer than 10.

    congrats to Oregon/Over backers. I didn't make a play but watched most of it. In fact, i was so captivated at the end with the point spread in doubt that I didn't watch a movie tonight...as I normally do on Sunday nights.

    As you can see, Oregon played relatively poorly for the most part tonight even trailing in the 2H to OSU. But when you have a team as bad as OSU even double digits as a home dog are risky.

    You really have to pick your spots with the OSU's, NW's, South Florida's, of the world. You may be getting lots of points but you are also backing a very poor team.

    Good luck the rest of the way fellows....
