Big East Betting Thread

I love Big East Hoops and I follow it closer than any other conference. Going to try and cap only those games involving Big East Teams. All bets will be for 1 Unit unless stated otherwise.

Thanks, looking good so far. It's tough to win on the road in this conference. SH is a pretty good team too.

I almost made this a half unit bet. Not in love with Lou at all and never thought they were a top 5 team but SJ is catching them after two tough loses and I just felt Lou will be looking to beat up somebody.

no doubt sh is tough, also just see ucon struggling on the road this season as they are incredibly young and turnover prone..hopefully we can get 20 more strong minutes out of the hall..

1/4
Cinn -8.5 -110
WVU -3 -110
Marq +4.5 -110
Prov +14 -110

Since the Xavier game Cinn has really turned it on. I beleive they get Y. Gates and others back tonight.

I just like WVU. They just had an ugly loss to SH so I'm expecting a bounce back here. Rutgers is dangerous at home...just beat Fla there 2 games ago.

Looking for the Marquette team that beat Wisc on the road to show up tonight. They play SU right after this and this is their better chance for a win out of the two. I expectd a little bigger line since GTown has been beating everyone.

Huge homer when it comes to SU but being #1 you have a target on your back and inflated lines. As I mentioned SU plays Marquette on Sat so if they get up big expect a lot of bench (more than normal) and the backdoor cover by the Friars.

Thanks. I would like to see a 3-1 night. The Cinn line is a little high in IMO. But ND's ATS this year is something like 1-6-1.

[GGPLAYER]

3-0 so far. What a choke job by Marq....up by 17 and loses SU. It went from a sure thing to nervous moments at the end. I don't know what is going on with that team.

Pitt game tonight?

[PAULYPOKER]

Great job!!!

1/5
DePaul +5.5 -110 .5 Unit play
Vill -7.5 -110 .5 Unit play



I had it in my head all day I was going with Pitt and even just posted that in Louisvillekid1's thread. But I think DePaul sees this as a game they can win. Plus they have 3 in a row on the road right afterwards. Bettors still have the SU blowout in their minds. I'll take DePaul in a close one.

Vill in conference opener coming off a couple tough loses. S. Fla was terrible on the road in the Big East last year.

Great job!!!

Thanks

Nope I never get into totals. I may start another thread where I just post my best bet of the day for CBB.

Don't sleep on Pitt when they get Travon Woodall back....

Best of luck to you and your team (except when u play the ville)....

I hear ya on that and I read he was not going to play last night so that did influence my play. Can't wait for tomorrow! It's my first chance to see my team in person.

We'll have to have a friendly wager when our teams hook up. Maybe put up some SBR points against each other.

Well I suffered my first loss and man was it ugly. Was saved on the day with a big DePaul win and only betting a .5 unit on each game. Sat has a big card so I'll be back tonight or tomorrow morning with my plays.

1/7
WVU -2 -120
Cinn -12.5 -110
ND +12.5 -110
Prov +3 -110
UConn -6.5 -105 .5 Unit play
Marq +11.5 -120

Big card today. I think they are still adding up TD's in Morgantown and WVU is playing tough. GTown was down and out in their last game and made a huge comeback in the 2H to win. I'm looking for them to have a let down today.

Best thing that happened to Cinn was that Xavier fight. They have been mowing down teams since then and Red Storm are helpless. I don't like big fav's usually bit I have to go with the Bearcats today.

ND has a terrible 1-7-1 ATS this year but I don't feel Lou deserves to be such a large fav today. If this was the game after the Kentucky match-up I would probably roll with the Cards but since they got their bounce win against St. John's I going with the Irish here.

Prov hung with the Nations top team for one half of basketball and totally fell apart in the last 10 min. They are catching SH in a good spot here because they are coming off two nice wins at home over WVU and UConn. I'm expecting SH to have a let down here and will take the home dog. Won't be shocked to see the Fiars win.

I made UConn a .5 unit play because to be honest I struggled with this play the most. UConn should win but I'm not sure about the -6.5 pt spread. 2DaBank made a good point that UConn will struggle with TO's on the road this year. I Rutgers looked real bad against WVU and they lost to LSU, Princton and few others. So there is no question in my mind UConn should win but it's all about the ATS.

Basically I can't bet the SU game because I'm a huge fan and I'll be at the game. No way I want to worry about the spread, etc when I'm there. But with that being said I don't see how they are fav in this game by more than 8-9 points. After choking in GTown, Marquette is going to play very, very hard in this game.

Held Marq to 19 pts??? I will never doubt this team again!!

[Louisvillekid1]

enjoy the game my man...

Fu#k Cinn!

1/7
WVU -2 -120
Cinn -12.5 -110
ND +12.5 -110
Prov +3 -110
UConn -6.5 -105 .5 Unit play
Marq +11.5 -120

3-3 +.28 Unit
YTD 9-4-1 +5.23 Units

I missed the start of the DePaul/Vill game and to be honest I'm not sure I would have done anything with it. I'm going to stop trying to do all the games and just focus on the ones I feel good about. That way I'll avoid ones like UConn yesterday. St. John's really surprised me yesterday too. I'll be back tomorrow.
