    Valpo -2.5 against Detroit?

    I have a very strong lean toward Valpo in this game. They are simply the more talented team.

    With that said, Valpo is trending downward and Detroit is trending upward imo. Could Valpo really get bounced in the first game of it's tournament?

    I feel like Valpo should have been a 4-5 point favorite. The low line is kind of concerning for me. With that said, Valpo's poor play recently good be attributed to the fact that they were waiting for the Horizon tourney to start and didn't have much to play for.

    No play as of now but I'm leaning Valpo. Does anyone else have any opinions on this game?

    78-68 @ Detroit on 01/16
    82-74 @ Valpo 02/10

    I really like Valpo also. The line move from -3 to -2.5 is strange
    3 solid contributors are listed as strong probables to play tonight.
    perhaps some are looking at the injury list and confusing probable with questionable ?
    I know Detroit has their supporters, but Valpo is the better team
    and they are at home.
    Like them minus the low line or alternatively ML parlayed with a
    huge favorite such as Missouri St or Wichita St to even out the juice.

    It's a neutral site game, the tournament is in Wisconsin and I like Valpo also despite the low line.

    love the over here, though a little concerned that the total dropped...

    ya, neutral site the only reason for the line.

    but this is not a battle between equals.

    i still think some see the laundry list of probables on Valpo
    but they are PROBABLE

    what do they say Eddie ? That you're better off losing twice to have
    a shot at winning the 3rd game ?

    Valpo is a cash ticket
    don't overthink this play it's solid

    My two sense I bet and lost on Detroit all year, I thought about taking Valpo for this reason... But I will be taking Detroit for this exact reasoning... The wrong thing to do it bet against a team that has lost for me all year, because as soon as you do they win... The mere fact that I considered it means Detorit is a winner.

    I'm hesitant snowball...I was sold earlier that Valpo was the best team in the conference, but they have disappeared. Tough to just turn it on whenever you want. I'm staying away. My lean is to grab Detroit +3, but since i'm more than likely gonna sit out i'll wish you luck

    detriot can run some ball, like them here on a neutral floor. valpo owned them in the regular season but detroit is playing well now and healthy. theyll make it tough for valpo to advance tonite.
