How is L'ville only favored by 9.5 points?

CollegeOverUnder · 12-03-12, 09:31 PM

ehhhhhhh its reasonable I would say. Havnt looked at it or anything but CoC has been playing there tails off I thought. And they have a monster guy in the paint who I thought was a ESPNU100 recruit. I no its only 1 guy but still helps.... Hmphhh not sure im a believer in Ville anyways

southpaw74 · 12-03-12, 09:40 PM

Correct. Louisville should certainly win but they don't shoot free throws well and they aren't a great offensive team. The number seems about right.

ChalkyDog · 12-03-12, 09:48 PM

Interesting. Just looking at past results, they lost to St. Johns by double digits and Auburn. St. Johns is terrible.

UL has the bigs needed to neutralize that big. CoC's best player is that little guard.

Still, if St. Johns is able to beat them by double digits, I can't see how UL can't do the same.

In full disclosure though, I am rather high on UL - so I need to be careful here.

Dieng is out for lville

lol im so low on Ville its ridicoulous I mean there a good team but I do NOT TRUST that team lmao

Louisvillekid1 · 12-03-12, 10:51 PM

Illinois st was upset alert for sure, I though this line would be 13.5, I think they cover this...

andrew Lawrence needs 25+ to cover

ChalkyDog · 12-03-12, 11:10 PM

I believe Russ Smith and Siva are going to give Lawrence fits.

Really hope to see Pitino press the hell out of them.

Not locked in, but it's looking like I might be.

Trying to cherry pick winners - obviously. You seeing anything you like?

I would love to pound Arizona, as I still don't think they're valued correctly, but I am a massive homer and am in the process of writing a pact with myself to avoid betting on my team.

LOL i like SMU +16 hahaha I dunno yet though just a eye test right now

Eh, after looking into this A LOT more, I wont be playing UL for any significant amount if at all. Might take it for a degen play - but nothing more.

pretty much why put yourself through that kind of pressure. Just watch the game ha. It's not like Ville is gonna win the National Championship you know they will find a way to screw up somehow we've already seen them squeak out twice against 2 MVC teams Northern Iowa and Illinois St might as well laugh a good one out when they play CoC who beat an overranked Baylor squad.

Not a fan of UL? Kentucky fan?

I feel they make a deep run this year. Their backcourt is solid, and once healthy - their front court is sick too.

Not a fan of Kentucky either ha. Im a fan of Illinois and Michigan St for the BCS programs that is. Ville is overranked and overrated every single year. There a solid squad but they arnt as good as people think they are. Lets put this team against Minnesota and see what happens......

Random choice, why Minny?

CollegeOverUnder · 12-04-12, 05:31 AM

because Minnesota would give pretty much any team in the country havoc in my oppinion atleast..... Im half asleep right now though.... and were the only 2 losers up at 3 am in the morning lmao

rm18 · 12-04-12, 06:29 AM

Minnesota would destroy them without Dieng

Louisvillekid1 · 12-04-12, 08:43 AM

Don't you know pitino's group doesn't play their best basketball until later in the season...

Louisvillekid1 · 12-04-12, 08:49 AM

Chalky ,

Dieng. Give them a few games to adjust and they will be nasty again, always tough when you lose your big man to adjust immediately.

Louisvillekid1 · 12-04-12, 09:54 PM

16 first half turnovers!

nosniboR11 · 12-04-12, 09:57 PM

good first half, good luck guys

Louisvillekid1 · 12-04-12, 10:47 PM

They won't admit me, says I failed the test...

They told me to watch "shutter Island"

Some leo Film i guess....

darkhat · 12-04-12, 10:52 PM

Leo very good actor

Believe could of fit on that board in water after Titanic

Girl didn't even try to let him fit on

southpaw74 · 12-04-12, 10:53 PM

Louisville looked more impressive tonight. Shot their free throws better. If they can do that against a good team then they are in business.

ChalkyDog · 12-04-12, 11:41 PM

You fukks. Every single one of you who talked me out of this and made me look elsewhere for a sizeable play - die!

Good win, L'ville. Congrats!
