      Always a two-way story when a line develops

      Not only do you have to ask yourself the question you already posed, but more importantly dig into WHY Saint Louis is favored

          Single-possession home faves are basically the worst bet long-term you could possibly make.

          If you're taking a home team -1 to -3, more often than not, you're on a loser.

                Exactly. It may sound stupid to encourage laying the juice, but I'd love to see the ATS vs. ML record of unranked home faves this year.

                              Emily, if you want to take home faves of -1 to -3 and report back to me, be my guest. See how you do.

                                Why don't you look it up and report back to us instead of just making shit up.

                                  I have a guy who claims to bet six and seven figures saying I'm talking out of my ass and making shit up.

                                  Only at SBR.

                                        People are overlooking the fact that Saint Louis is good and they are home. The line is perfect, I was hoping to see Billikens between Pick and -1.5, as I would have played them. Butler has suspiciously been underdogs to some inferior teams this season and they keep winning those games, accounting for their great ATS mar. That is not he case here, STL is legit.

                                          I'd like to know the % of SBR posters who are either bi-polar or schizophrenic.

                                            Not a trap.....St. Louis is a solid basketball team, and it's being played in St. Louis.
                                            Im not surprised by this line.

                                              I'm not discrediting StL, but they are no Butler.

                                              This should be a PK at worst.

                                                Very hard to win conference road games...... Line makers know this, and thats why it seems to be a funny line... Mr. Regul8er is correct.. bilikins solid.....

                                                  Why not? I think these teams are close...Butler -1 or-1.5 neutral

                                                    Butler -3 or -3.5 at neutral.

                                                      Butler is the play for me. Not scared of a saint Louis team playing against Stevens and the bulldogs.

                                                          I would love STL +3 or 3.5 neutral but won't happen. I think it will get closer to Pick by the time A-10 tournament rolls around.

                                                            If you're taking a home team -1 to -3, more often than not, you're on a loser.
