There are a lot of 2.5's out there Biff.

Vanderbilt may be the easiest play of the night. Don't over think this.

what makes you say this?

Arkansas gets a reality check tonight. Arkansas will fall back to earth when Vandy out shoots them. Vandy is the much better team and arkansas is a bottom tier SEC team and the undefeated at home ends tonight...Mark my words.

i'm on 2.5, NC. +2' = +2.5. the apostrophe is the hook, brother.

We will just have to see then. If I'm wrong, I'll admit it...I'm just not sold on Ark yet at all.

I'm a homer. I will be at the game tonight, but I just don't see the hogs pulling it out. Vandy is arguably the hottest team in the league. And their inside man has a dominant presence, which is something arkansas has not faced except for Kentucky, and we saw how that one went. I hope the hogs can pull it out, but i just think if the razorbacks are gonna lose one game at home, it is this one. I don't know much about Vandy's defense or how often they turn the ball over, but if their defense is decent and they take care of the ball, I can see them winning by 8.
68-60 Vandy

I went with o142. I think Arkansas, at home, will be able to play to their pace. Both teams play early in the clock, which means more possessions. Experienced guard play for Vandy will probably be difference for a road Commodore win.

i thought long and hard about the over too, ended up opting for Hogs plus points. think over is a good play, BOL to you.

I agree that Ark is a good home team but I wouldn't bet against Vandy right now. They are one of the hottest teams playing right now.

I think this game goes under. With all of the weapons Vandy has offensively I don't know why Arkansas would try to shoot it out with Vandy. Vandy has played very good D for the past month. The only games that have went over 143 in the past month for the Dores was their last game vs MTSU (MTSU shot 65% in the first half), and an overtime loss to Miss St where both teams shot atleast 50% from 3pt land (47 attempted 3's in that game and the total ended up at 155).

Arkansas is gonna need Wade or Young to get hot IMO for this game to go over, and they will need to keep Sanchez out of foul trouble to have a chance at winning.

I think Arkansas is perceived as a tough team to play at home, and the win over Michigan just fuels that idea. However, when Michigan got settled in, it was clear who the better team was. I highly doubt Vandy comes out and gets overwhelmed early like Michigan did. It is familiar territory for the Dores, they start 4 seniors, have a big size advantage, and let's face it, they are the better team. -2.5 is a gift. GL to everybody.

looking good so far!

It's raining 3's!

That is F'ing priceless

Gamblin'Machi · 02-01-12, 01:09 AM

Boy I'm sure glad I was wrong. Exactly why I didn't bet them. Go Hogs great W. From a very reliable source too, Arkansas will land Dorial Green Beckham, a top WR recruit tomorrow morning. Great couple days to be a Hog fan. WPS

And the over was delicious. I was impressed with Arkansas' mixing of pace throughout the game. Need to see a little more in the half court, but a great transition squad.

was thinking the same thing. as a team they are playing very well together, getting the extra passes to find somebody with a better look.

if they could only find a way to bring up the intensity on the road they could be a very dangerous team THIS YEAR! A very farcry from what most fans this year have been expecting

theangryelf · 02-01-12, 07:31 AM

Hey Madden, good call last night. I should have hedged my parlay with arkansas because it was the last game out of my 4 team parlay. Good looks, shouldn't have been so confident on vandy last night.

BiffTFinancial · 02-01-12, 08:12 AM

great game, just mad at myself for not throwing a unit on ML +130. love Arkansas' style of play.
