Texas Southern -4 -105

Explain please. Road team with the spread continuing to rise in their favor. I am curious as to your reasoning before I make a play...

You kind of explained it yourself.

Have a position on ML -175 as well

TheeArchBishop · 01-30-12, 04:23 PM

Excellent. I didnt know if I was missing something other than that little nugget. Good Luck.

TheLock · 01-30-12, 06:53 PM

Not a fan of the line movement past couple of hours

TheeArchBishop · 01-30-12, 08:08 PM

Agree with the line movement, but I think Texas Southern ML is the play here. I think they they can and will take this game. Alabama State's wins were against pretty poor teams and they should lose again tonight.

Texas Southern has the biggest home bias in college hoops when considering a combination of offensive and defensive stats in rebounding, turnovers and both effeciences.

They are a terrible road play statistically speaking.

TheeArchBishop · 01-30-12, 08:15 PM

Thanks Billy. I appreciate feedback. Waiting until last minute before I decide on what to do. This game has degenerate play all over it lol.

BernardMadoff · 01-30-12, 08:25 PM

May not mean much but State is 9-1 the last 10, dont think Ill bet this if I do it would be very small on State.

Alabama St has lost 3 in a row. I am not sure what results you are referring to.

TheeArchBishop · 01-30-12, 08:39 PM

Against the spread maybe?

That would be a neat trick. These teams may play three lined games all year.

I would put that in the category of Means Nothing.

He should still be worried.

Wait, how does me calling the stats you mentioned being essentially worthless constitute me declaring victory?

Alabama St is 5-5 in their last 10 games.

Use your fukkin head.

What's the score now?

TheLock · 01-30-12, 11:09 PM

Overtime

This is most likely a loss. A little hard to believe I'm going to lose the ML portion of this also.

I was referring to the last 10 times the two played one another, kinda obvious considering Alabama St. had only won 7 games on the season going into this game. Ball game over Alabama St. wins. Aint never over...till its over.

Then that probably should have read "State is 9-1 last 10 against Southern. "

I would never look at that stat in million years of handicapping.

No one ever called it over. Jesus, dude.

I had the under in this game too which got crushed by OT

Ouch

Texas Southern led 50-35 and finished up 9-31. Unreal boys.

Sorry bro, wasnt referring to you, only bet 10 bucks on this, id rather lose that if you could have won, gl next time.

Jayvegas420 · 01-31-12, 01:44 AM

I try not to bet on teams that lose by nearly 20 to Indiana Purdue & Colorado St & Arkansas.

And I surely don't bet on teams that lose by 40+ POINTS to teams like Wisconsin Mil. (LOL).
Even though it's unlikely that I would ever bet on a team who lost by 40+ to Baylor & Michigan St.
Texas Southern is also one of these teams (They DID lose to Baylor & Michigan ST. by 40+)

Good luck next time

Thanks for telling us this AFTER the game was over.

Jayvegas420 · 01-31-12, 11:15 AM

At least you've learned something for next time.
& I've learned to try & help save you from these losing bets before the game starts!

TheLock · 01-31-12, 11:28 AM

Do us a favor, jay........

Discuss the pros and cons of a wager PRIOR to tip off.

If you think there are never +EV scenarios betting on a team like Texas Southern than you may want to rethink your strategies.

If it was easy as betting teams that are hot in their last 10 games, everyone on this site would be a millionaire.

Boys, don't ever bet on the Ravens vs the Patriots. Oh wait, that game was a week ago.

Jayvegas420 · 01-31-12, 01:41 PM

No thanks I don't want to re-think my strategies & I don't take advice from losing bettors!
Plus I acknowledged the fact that my apparently, undisputed advice would have been better served pre-tip.
So, tell ya what lemme know which losing bets you are prepared to make today & I'll bail you out again tonight!
LOL
