    Oakland +10.5 vs Texas

    Any thoughts on this game? I'm leaning Oakland +10.5. Just not sure which Texas team is gonna show up.

    I was thinking Oakland +6 for the first half. I think they'll come out strong but Texas puts it together in the second half and wins/covers.

    Oakland will eat Texas up .. Big upset right here. Oakland spreads the floor and can score from anywhere. They got the fire power to beat anyone check their schedule

    Oakland has been playing really well lately. They are an experienced team with a lot of size. 6'11" senior Keith Benson averages 18 and 10 a game and is a 2 time Summit POY. He could cause them some problems inside and they have a few guys that can knock down some open threes if he gets doubled. Not sure if I want the 1st half +6, the full game +10.5, or if I should just watch.

    This Oakland is not Oakland, California right? It's not the ghetto of all ghettos, right? It can't be. They do not play national basketball. They might play ball at the city park, but thats about it. No college, hell, no high school, no jr. college, no nashional shit. lol.... fukkking Oakland. OAKTOWN Mu'FU'KA!! Break Ur'Self, FOOOOOO!!!!!!



    Ya'll don't know. peace.

    I am leaning toward Oakland too. They shoot at almost 50% (.494) and are 2nd in scoring. Oak has scored over 100 pts. 8 times this season.

    It should be a good game. If I bet I am going Oak +10.5 and over 154, probably parlay it.

    Thinking Oak could stick with them for a half, see Texas pulling away in the 2nd half..

    This is crazy talk. Oakland hasn't played a dynamic defense like Texas all year. They might keep it together in the first half, but the 2nd half will be all Texas. If anything tease Oakland up to cover a potential blow out.

    Like Oakland to cover, which means Texas probably wins by 30.

    I follow the Summit League fairly close and these guys are good.

    They have a first round draft pick in Benson.

    I took UT -3 1st ten minutes....i can see them holding a 4 to 5 pt lead most of the first half..so i wouldnt risk it going with -6 or whatever the line is...OAK +6 1H looks right on the money...itll be borderline...but i can EASILY see texas lead by 4 or 5 and keep the lead through the first ten minutes...so we will see...

    For some reason I have a easier time cappin' either 1st quarters (football or NBA), and 1st ten minutes of a game, than a whole game, or a first half...its easier to call a short period wager, than a whole game, in which a million ups and downs occur...

    BOL to all on the OAK side..i hope you cash it, AFTER i cash my 1st ten minutes on UT -3, OF COURSE!

    Love Oakland today, my guy doesnt take ML bets but if he did Id be tempted to take Oakland straight up today. Rick Barnes sucks in March and Oakland can outscore Texas.

    Sparky...keep in mind that all of these games you listed except the 1 point Mich St loss were on the road. Neutral site is a big difference.

    This seems just like everyone and their mother was on Belmont yesterday. Screwed me over cause I listened. I do like Oakland to stay close cause texas is so inconsistant. Dont know who will show up

    How anybody thought Oakland will stay close with Texas when they play the defense of a team like the Phoenix Suns I have no idea. I'll take my texas -4.5 1H to the bank!

    Anyone notice when ever texas has the ball and are about to shoot, all oakland does is stand still. Take a look... Oakland plays no defense.. they run around like monkeys, but just when texas is about to shoot, they oakland defender decides to freeze and dont do anything.. Watch and see...
