    POD Take Illinois -2.5
    Illinois -2.5 @ Boston

    Listen Up Fellas

    Illinois are playing great ball right now. They beat Iowa and Michigan St. away, and almost beat Michigan in the Big 10 tourney. They are 5-2 in their last 7. Now Boston are 4-1 in their last 5. Fortunately for Boston, this is a home game for them. Either way, Illinois come from a better conference and are a higher seed for a reason. Take them -2.5 or -3. It will cash.

      The caution is always how interested the much bigger school is in a tourney like this.

        Doesn't this seem like a trap. They should win by 10 but I think the motivation factor is playing a huge role in the line

                    I don't know, I've got to think it's the home court advantage here

                      Home court must be figured in still like Illinois.

                        Tough to tell with how putrid Boston played in their conf champ game. Can't think they play that poor again. Big stage for them

                                  My guess is scheduling conflict at Illinois' arena. Last year Kentucky was the 1 seed and played at Robert Morris.

                                  Boston +3 for me.

                                      I think betting Boston because Illinois will be unmotivated is square reasoning. Illinois was never expected to make the big dance. Illinois played bad when they're conference schedule began, but ended their season playing good ball with effort. Gonna role with JJ and play the IL on the moneyline.

                                              It sounds like Illini fans are outnumbering the BU fans according to the forums I read.

                                                    Ahhhh a BIG 10 team who can't score. Not even against a mid major.

                                                    2 seed..
