    Is it just me or does every total under 120 in CBB get bet higher

    Just like clockwork every single day

    Virg/Clemson open 111.5 now 114.5
    Texas A&M/Texas Tech open 115.5 now 116
    Loyola Chicago/Butler open 111.5 now 112.5
    Clev St./Milwaukee open 118 now 120

    you would think these linesmakers would have figured this out by now

    Figured what out exactly? For all we know they could be just playing with the numbers.

    Its not an efficient market, that's for sure. But much more efficient than it used to be. Back before the syndicates took over, you'd often see 5-10 point moves on the totals, and 3-5 point moves on the spread.

    And who is to say they aren't begging for it

    That's happening and all favorites between about 13 and 25 are getting faded hard on a daily basis. I'm guessing big dogs have been doing well and there is a group out there just playing all these big dogs blind but not sure.
