    Thats 100% correct because of the weather in that part of the country.

    What would make you think Bradley wins this game?
    Playing atrocious.......only one player that gives any kind of threat to score double digits consistently!
    Game time move probably benefits the road team, as the home team is taken out of their routine!
    I'm assuming attendance will be light, due to the weather and during school hours, negating real home court advantage.

    Creighton just beat Bradley by 13 while playing sloppy and turning it over 17 times.

    Why wouldn't I load up on Creighton ML????? Help is certainly needed, because yes, line smells fishy!

    Similar scenario two Sunday's ago, when Southern Illinois went to Illinois St, with the Rebirds winless at that point, and were able to win the game.

    Creighton is much more well rounded in comparison to the Salukis, and can't afford a letdown, as they are positioning themselves in the top half of the MVC.

    I will say this, though -- typically you'll see a ML drop with the line drop if it's a legitimate play. So far, the Creighton ML has actually gone up at some books.

    NC....Im trying not to overthink here. Creighton's last two road games were a 5 point loss at Northern Iowa and a 1 point loss at Missouri State.....arguably the two toughest venues to play at in the MVC.

    I agree here. I understand the statistics that go behind sports betting, but as Texas will forever be my example: THE BETTER TEAM WILL WIN THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME.
    Bradley is awful, and as was said the away team gets the advantage with the start time moved. Load up.

    I think this is the case of the books trying to mess with our heads they know no one will take Bradley unless they start doing crap like this... Or at least that is what I am telling myself before I pound creighton

    We had record snowfall here in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

    So far we have had a little over 12 inches. I can't get out of my home. Car is snowed in.

    ....that. Nobody there will want to go to a basketball game this afternoon. Really almost no home court advantage. I can't see Bradley being fired up by anything here. Should be a "go through the motions" game.

    I originally wanted to pound the over on this too (132) but am thing the refs might let 'em play to get the game over quicker. Is that good for scoring? Less fouls means the game tempo is faster = good for scoring....but less free throws means lower scoring. I don't know now.

    I'll let you know if I go ahead and take the over.....if so, take the under big. I'm FADE material, 1-8 last night.

    i dont understand why this was nominated. What do you expect the students to do on a day with no classes? They will go to the basketball thats what they will do the court is on the campus

    I would be surprised if most of them even know the game time changed.

    If my team was 0-11 in conference, I wouldnt exactly be sleeping in a tent by the ticket office overnight waiting to get a ticket. They'll be getting stoned in their dorms on their day off, they could care less.

    Trust me they are either buying beer or looking for a snow bunny to shack up with for the next couple of days. I was once that guy.
