    This isn't your usual lock thread. Georgia Tech +1

    This one is going to win.

    Georgia Tech is too talented for Northwestern here. Revenge also plays a part. This Georgia Tech team is playing with a chip on their shoulder... they lost to Siena last year and beat them by 30 or so this year. First road game for Northwestern, they are going to have to shoot 50-60% from 3 and it isn't happening on the road.

    Glen Rice Jr. goes off for 25. Georgia Tech wins 75-65.

    Not sure what beating up on a Siena team that is not the same team as last year that wasn't very good last year has to do with this. Apples to oranges. I think Northwestern is a better "team" - don't know who wins, but talent doesn't always win out. Definitely don't see this as a lock in either direction, line certainly says the same. Good luck.

    Hey, *** guzzler, I really did have Tennessee in a teaser. +30 to +43 was a no brainer for an auto-win. Just decided to close the teaser out with it instead of go with the straight bet.

    Your mindless bitching about it would be acceptable if I hadn't posted a print screen proving it, but considering I did, you can shut your *** guzzling mouth.

    If "this one is going to win" then why wouldn't you just bet the ML. You can't win a +1 bet unless the team wins the game.

    I don't know about this one----I saw clips of the GT/LSU game----LSU is a very very very average team, and they beat Tech by almost 10.

    Good luck with the play, but I think this is a sucker line for Tech backers.

    Already on the +1. If you want in on GT now, it is -2 so moot point now.

    Fair enough. I went to around 5 Northwestern games last year and know them very well. They start off slow and if their long range jumpers aren't falling, they will be run out of the gym. GT is one of the more athletic teams in the country that no one knows about, and that isn't a good match up for Northwestern since they are mostly just shooters.

    Obviously transitive property doesnt always apply in sports but it is worth noting that Northwestern knocked off LSU who knocked off Georgia Tech.

    That is somewhat worth noting, but those were neutral site games, and Northwestern struggled with LSU's athleticism and put them away very late. Georgia Tech is more athletic than LSU and far less stupid, and it is at Georgia Tech rather than on a neutral site.

    A couple of hours being logged on. According to this website I went to online once, I type 105 words per minute. Guess you can thank typing 10 page english papers in 5 hours before class for that.

    Ohh I thought it was the fact, that you're on here from 8am to midnight every day.

    But nice typing level, add that to your list when you're throwing out how smart you are and your law studies.

    It's "not your usual lock thread" and yet it has the same result as your usual lock thread.

    you know our little kerry..... whenever anyone challenges him to prove what he claims, he suddenly finds life and stops posting. then shows up next day acting like he has amnesia.

    he might be away a little longer after this disaster.

    This was a really bad play. There is nothing that should have directed Kerry to pick GT.

    I didn't, but no one who has ever gambled is going to miss a chance to middle a 4.5 point spread jump. Bash me for losing the juice here. Ill take it.
