idk, UConn bounced back after that home loss to G-Town and WV can't keep playing like this. If Thabeet plays, UConn should win IMO

I think West Virginia is the best team in the country right now.

I take uconn on the ML here. Could hit nicely or does have the ability to crash and burn as well but ill take my chances!

I'm going to wait till closer to gametime. If I see Thabeet is playing, I'm going to hit UConn Hard.

UConn has too many weapons against West Virginia. The Mountaineers have been playing way over there heads as of late, but I suspect things will come to a hault against a much more versatile and athletic Husky bunch.

I see the likes of thin bodied big-men Wellington Smith and Devin Ebanks get absolutely man-handled by Jeff Adrien and Thabeet.

Remember, this is only a play if Hasheem is good to go.

How many weapons did UCONN have against Gonzaga...enough said I'll take the points and see you in the winner's circle.

does anyone know thabeets status as of right now?

InTheHole · 01-06-09, 01:03 PM

^IDK but their playing WV which leads me to believe he'll play.

james4512 · 01-06-09, 01:45 PM

i looked all through ESPN and google and hes not even on the injury report.

I like WVU alot.. and that scares me and should prob scare y'all too

Fiasco · 01-06-09, 05:13 PM

Uconn ML has too much value to pass imo...

jjgold · 01-06-09, 05:51 PM

I took West Virg in 1st half

l7ustin · 01-06-09, 06:18 PM

im on west virginia -3. lets cash this thing

element1286 · 01-06-09, 06:18 PM

I like WVU in this spot.

JBC77 · 01-06-09, 06:27 PM

Being from CT I get to see the Huskies a lot live, I'm not impressed. Thabeet is either on his game or he's not, really is no in between for that guy. Uconn is just too iffy and probably ranked too high in my opinion. WVU is probably a solid wager in this one....

Regul8er · 01-06-09, 10:04 PM

No problem for UConn.......my prediction was spot on......UConn's big men absolutely dominated West Virginia's slim big men! +145 Baby!
