    This is what Vegas Dave would call a "philosophy pick"
    Pittsburg ML +120

    I have followed both Louisville and Pitt almost every game this season. Louisville has seemed sluggish at times, but seem to pull out some close wins against decent competetion. Pittsburg on the other hand has been very dominant and can make the case they are the best team in the country. The stats dont support it and even betting into a negative edge(-1.92% from what i calculate), I still like this play alot.

          Against All Odds has his own language.

          He's the legend that turned the popular word "HUGE" into "HUGH"

                -- your right

                And the total for that game is 131 - 132 (depending on the book).

                          Good luck my friend!

                          But how do you figure this is a Philosophy Pick? You seem to know both teams well and believe you are getting the better team at a good price.

                          In fact, if anything, I'd say LOUISVILLE would be the philosophy pick, as they are the favorite when you think Pittsburgh should be.

                          Was just confused, but no matter, I'll be rooting for Pitt for you

                              I guess you didnt read it... Im not saying I think Pitt should be the fav. in fact the stats say otherwise...

                                i offered you work, where you could have made about 30k in 10 days just by putting on a suit and talking, but you refused cause you wanted to put a tattoo on your head for a possible 5k.

                                and you think aao is a retard

                                  I did read it... you said Louisville "looks sluggish at times but pulls of close wins against decent opponents" and Pitt has been "very dominant and can make the case they are the best team in the country".

                                  From your assessment, it sounded like Pitt was the better team... sorry if I misunderstood
