Can we pound Illinois??????

[konck]

Yesterday we pounded Marquette and got a win even though they tried
so hard to butcher the last few seconds but a win is a win.
Today Illinois+8 thats a big number and the public is hammering Miami.
Illinois is 32% to 38% public and really the most lopsided bet game.
I think they slow it down play the midwest game which Miami will go along with
and we have a close one at the end. Bad thing here is I bet Miami 12-1 future.

But today I gotta take the Fighting Illini +8

[no1here]

consensus from contest has miami 15-2

Did Brock voice his opinion? Most important factor when capping this game.

[d2bets]

Absolutely. I'm not sure any ACC team should give 8 to any Big Ten team. That's just crazy talk. Probably because people saw Illinois win ugly. So what.

On Miami.

Wow I like that a lot

[THam12]

I'm an extremely dedicated illinois fan. I think we have a chance to stay in this game, if we shoot well which hasn't happened too often since our winning streak ended.

I don't bet on or against my team just out of choice, but I think we can keep this close if we shoot well with the chance of an upset. Miami is a great team, so we will have to play extremely well to win. I won't tell you what to bet, but remember that illinois bat zags by double digits, butler by double digits, upset Indiana, bet ohio state by 20.... They CAN shoot lights out at times.

Yeah bet on a team who can go 11 minutes without making a FG. That is some tough Big Ten basketball for you!

They are a team that wins ugly....but its not so ugly cashing that ticket
I made a big play on Ill+8 if at game time it goes up to 8.5 im betting more.

I guess Illy ML may be the play

Yeah, and they won that game by 8. Now imagine if those shots are falling. That's how they beat Indiana, Gonzaga, Butler, Ohio State and Minnesota twice. Miami loses to Georgia Tech, Wake Forest, Indiana State....this team can be had. Wide range of possible results in this game. In fact, either team could win in a runaway, but most likely it will be very close.

I gotta get some of that too brother but the chunk of my betting is taking pts.
Deemer and Brock on Miami last time I faded this combo I was +4.5 and won by 15
This combo is gold fella's load the fuk up
Illinois+8
Man I cant wait for MLB with those 2 I can smell the chalk munching already.
Im going to post a spread sheet I have for 1 month soon MLB from last year
I have 3 in a row just like it....Brock made it such a great season.

OK so you list the teams Illinois beat and the teams Miami lost to. How about doing reverse? Miami is playing much better basketball right now than Illinois. Illinois can win if they make shots? No kidding. Who does that NOT apply to? If Miami shoots from 3 well like they have 3 games in a row, Illinois is done.

[Yazworm91]

This games line shoud be around 4.5-5 pts in favor of Miami. Public perception is why it's at -8. I've rode miami all year but today I like Illinois +8.



Ps my disclaimer to this post is I'm wrong 48.79% of the time lol

And not that Fla GC is a bad team they proved value in the tourny but Miami did lose to Fla GC 51-63

Sure. That's my point that either team is more than capable of not only winning SU, but by DD. Miami 12/22 from arc each of last two games. If they do that they win and probably cover, but Illinois guards the 3 point line.

[boss_of_um]

Yeah, the second game of the season means a lot to how teams are playing now. I think 8 is probably too high of a spread but if Illinois is down four or 5 late and get into the fouling game after missing some 3's Miami is money from the FT line with Scott and Larkin.

[joco]

illinois lives and dies by the 3...they almost completely blew the game against colorado in the second half. at one point while the buffs were on their 23-2 run...think they went 9-31 for the game or something like that. my point is...they have no shot against miami who has inside presence and fantastic guard play as well.

the only way i see illinois making it a competitive game is if meyers leonard leaves the blazers and plays for the illini today

All that matters.

That and Brock's picks

The thing I like about the illinois team is they can rattle off streaks strong defense leads to a few good runs in major games.

Duke's a winner and the midwest bash bros ain't going 2-0

We will be 2-0!

Live by the 3. Die by the 3. Miami doesn't rely on the 3 like Illinois does. Illinois HAS to make them to win. If Miami makes them they run away with it.

Duke

Good luck iwin
