Should Tennessee Backers Beware?

[GiveMeaBJ]

Had Tennessee since Sunday night now they have moved all the way to +2.5. I want to add more to Tennessee but after watching the Xavier line and game I'm just not so sure anymore. Someone tell me something.

[OMGChoGath]

I'm on Tennessee ML +115 for 200. Seems solid to me.

Tennessee rolls em.

It's fukken Iowa.

Big Mush trying to mush Tenn even tho he already mushed Iowa in the other thread.

That was my initial thinking. After studying, Tennessee curb stomps Iowa.

[KRIT]

Ignoring line movement on this one, taking Vols for 1u.

Iowa coach won't be with them for the game

Nah. Espn just reported he is flying back and will be there. Just got the update on my phone

[SteveKerrsJunk]

Sorry. Iowa will gape. Hope you guys win though.

[KRIT]

His son's surgery went well, he is headed to Dayton to coach the Hawkeyes.

[GiveMeaBJ]

Nah. Espn just reported he is flying back and will be there. Just got the update on my phone

Was there even ever a doubt? Everything I read yesterday suggested this was the plan the whole time. Some guys just don't read good.

Hopefully Tenn is not throwing in the towel tonight

Only thing I am worried about

Yes this is a big worry of mine as well. Tenn probably upset to be here and want go home. No telling if they will fake it for a bit or just drop it early. Maybe Tenn 1h is the play. These guys clearly have no interest in this game.

Why??? They can win their next round as well..

Why would they throw in the towel?

Sarcasm to JJ doing his typical retard shpeel.

Tennessee is the type of team that blow folks out, like they did against Virginia in an ~40 point ass reaming.

They also can go into long scoring droughts and play with very low bball IQ. When they do this, they can lose to anyone too. Very inconsistent team with very good talent. That guard McRae is a baller. So is Stokes. Maymon is a crapshoot, one game good, 2 games bad. UT has been playing very good the last 3 weeks. Iowa not so much. Not sure why Iowa is favored?

[downsouth]

On Iowa for 2 units early

[DOM_Toretto]

No doubt Iowa is in a slump, but they've played better opponents and beat better opponents. Roy Devon Marble will be the most talented player on the court tonight. With the likes of Gasell, White, Utoff, etc they got size plus perimeter shooting. I can't see the vols keeping up.

Oh yeah, the hawkeyes might just be playing tough for their coach who's son just had serious surgery.

[EaglesPhan36]

You guys who base too much of an opinion on a move of a half point or even one point never cease to amaze me. If you get twisted about this sort of thing, to me it always means you did not have much confidence in your original pick to begin with and probably should be passing on the game altogether.

[Ballerholic]

Is under the play here?

[High3rEl3m3nt]

I asked the same question, concerning the line movement, and was told that RAS is on Iowa.

Wow. You are laughable.

I think it opened in Vegas at -2.5 Tennessee and moved 5 points to -2.5 Iowa. Easily the most line movement out of the NCAA tournament games go far.

Hasn't this line moved 4-5 points?

I don't see how Iowa wins tonight. Don't worry about the way the public is betting. Public doesn't even watch basketball until the tournament. Public remembers Iowa in the top 10 and all the PRESEASON hype about Iowa. Public probably doesn't realize that Iowas coach is still in Iowa City dealing with the health of his son. Tennessee is playing great bb at the right time. Tennessee rolls. I'm HUGE on this game tonight.

Iowas QUIT playing well once the coaches son had health issues. In their conference tournament Iowa got beat by NORTHWESTERN! UT led the #1 team in the nation at half. This is an easy winner tonight.

[Reno_Thor]

I was all over TNT early but have since had second thoughts. I have TN money line (+145) but just "insured" it with Iowa 1st half -0.5. Looking at Iowa's last 5 they were up at half time in 3, tied in 1 and down in 1. They seem to collapse in the 2nd. I hope to win both bets but should at least come out even for the game and as I usually don't give a crap about play-in/NIT games at least I have a reason to watch....it is a sickness isn't it?

My bad then to you line watchers. Line history I was able to see did not go back more than a couple days, so I did not notice and have not latched onto lines yet for the tourney other than looking day to day.

Many pros do not bet college nit because lack of volume

Its not a heavily bet sport period, the average mike does not bet college or nba hoops

[Ghenghis Kahn]

tennessee or pass for me.

[Cuse0323]

When in doubt roll with the superstar player a la NCSU and Warren. Marble it is.

Or just fade BIGDAY. Iowa

[BIGDAY]

Iowa wins now.

Give me a winner pal..

All I do is lose.
