    Why is Louisville only a 3.5 favorite against crappy Memphis?
    Louisville is still a very good team, and Memphis has a long way to go to even make this a game, especially this year. Memphis is not good. I wouldn't put them anywhere near the top 25. Sure, they're home court is solid, but I think Louisville is going to win, and it wont be on a last second buzzer beater. At worst we're talking freethrows.

      So does UCLA and Kentucky, and UL would more than likely have a similar number against both, probably even more vs. UCLA.

      Point being, memphis is in bad shape this year, IMO.

              Revenge from last year. Memphis remembers the end of that game. They will play zone on them and without Dieng inside Louisville interior D is vulnerable against this Memphis team.

                Memphis has a Calipari protege @coach, that runs an AAU team. The team has no direction on offense, and is poor defensively.

                Practically if the other team has the same anmount of talent, and a competent coach then Memphis has no chance.

                            L'ville might come back to win and cover, but anyone that thought this line was way off has a few screws loose.

                              They were favored based on reputation and ranking.

                                Simple to say now...

                                Louisville coulda came out to a 30-10 start and won by 25 and this comment would of never been made.
                                I thought of betting on Louisville as a single bet, but just decided to toss them in an action parlay for peanuts.

                                  Josh Pastner? Is that guy still head coach? More of a Lute protege...Good Coach, he is.

                                    Memphis won't score 25 points in the second half, watch the second half defense...

                                      Lol it is but they are playing a more than competent opponent on the road. L'ville should have been a small fave in this one

                                                  I guess why was Louisville favored at all might be the better question.
