    These Saturday lines are ridiculous.
    Baylor -12.5?? vs Oklahoma?

    Kentucky -11 vs Vandy?

    Stanford -12 on the road?????????

    Just seems like too many points. Oklahoma well coached, Vandy very talented, and Utah played Stanford tough in first meeting.

    The only favorite I see that is justified and that has a good chance of covering is Kansas -8 but still that line is inflated too. Was hoping to get it at -6. Like the over in this game however.

    Any opinions on these games? I am leaning toward the dog on all of them except Mizzou/KU.

      would feel pretty good about vandy, Miss St, and ISU covering

      I think Mizzou shoots their way to a cover as well

        It's gets very difficult this time of year, people wager on the favorites and the lines get out of whack.

          That makes no sense, if the lines are out of whack according to you it should be easier. Not trying to bust balls but think about it. More and more recreational bettors will be involved as the tourneys get closer.

            Vanderbilt @ Kentucky
            If Vandy hadn't lost to Fla & ARK, I'd say this was a lock but because of these two losses I can't say Vandy will show up. They lost to the Wildcats by 6 a week ago. Even if they don't keep it within 6 I am sure they easily stay within twice that amount. VANDY are 19-7-2 ATS in their last 28 road games.Commodores are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games as an underdog. Commodores are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
            Vandy +12
            Linemakers have been pinning Kentucky's over/unders fairly accurately lately. Lamb & Davis combined for less than 25 points combined but, could go off the hook in this one. I don't think the over under is a very reliable play.

              You're clueless of you think Baylor should be favored by less than double digits against OU. Baylor already beat them by 12 in Norman.

              Come on man, OU lost by almost 40 to Mizzou and by 18 to Texas Tech.

                OK @ Baylor
                When I watched the Sooners loose to Chaminade (LOL) in a Vegas Sportsbook two seasons ago I wondered if they would ever be good again. I have been pleasantly surprised with them this season however. I don't think any of this matters though. I stated that this is the toughest Conf in the nation this year & I see the Bears winning the Championship. Baylor has not been asked to cover a spread of this magnitude since they played OK St. in Jan. But since they did I'd make a small wager that they can do it to the Sooners as well.
                BAYLOR -13.5
                OK allows an AVG 69 to be scored against them. Baylor averages 75 points per game. Over is 10-4 in Sooners last 14 games following a ATS win. Over is 7-3 in Sooners last 10 games as a road underdog of 7.0-12.5. Over is 19-7 in Bears last 26 games following a ATS win.
