My line guess is MSU -3.5, and I would lean Purdue there.

Yeah I would expect a line that would indicate the teams would be nearly equal on a neutral court. Give about 3 points or so to the home team. Had Purdue won yesterday I'd probably say MSU, but now I'm not sure. Neither team has looked great the past week.

I honestly have no idea who the best team in the nation is anymore. Nova is reeling with injuries now and just don't have the bench.

Yeah Nova needs to get healthy

I had it in my mind that Purdue was going to split between OSU & MSU, and they obv lost to OSU.

Still think MSU is best team but really frustrated with poor coaching, shitty lineups and too many rotations from izzo

UCLA +9.5 @ Arizona

Duke couldn't hit broad side of a barn in second half.

Yea for sure. Guards run the college game. The one and done rule stupid anyways. Either you go to college to stay awhile cause you want to or you go to work. Being forced to go for a year is ignorant and just taking a spot away from a kid who wants to go learn.

I totally support the none or 2 rule. Either go straight outta high school, or if you go to college you have to stay 2 years. It would make both college ball and nba better.

I don’t think SMC is good enough to sweep the Zags. Zags are excellent road team, and when they lost at home the Gaels really needed that game badly in terms of getting their first good win for the resume.

Hope so. I’ll take a MSU win by 2 lol, but any MSU win I’m happy - even losing money.

Making Bama & Bruins 2x each.

That's called a win win.

#1 on Monday.

Although X is probably more deserving but Sparty will get it. Winning at Butler and Creighton is impressive.

krk1030 · 02-10-18, 06:03 PM

wow bridges

DOM_Toretto · 02-10-18, 06:48 PM

Goins played 30 min. He had the 3rd highest mins on the team, but he's probably the 8th best player on the team. Makes sense. Good job Izzo. We won in spite of him yet again.

Not sure X deserved that win at Creighton. At all.

Xavier is gritty and legit

Totally agree. Arguably best backcourt in the country. But specifically today they should’ve lost. Did you see that ending? Foul called with under a second left?

It was a foul. Even if it didn’t get called Xavier would of covered the line if they swallowed the whistle

Michigan -3.5 @ Wisconsin
Illinois +2 vs. Penn state

krk1030 · 02-11-18, 01:36 PM

michigan was too easy

wisky is awful

teecee · 02-11-18, 01:46 PM

What does Illinois do that we should like them today?

Shute · 02-11-18, 02:03 PM

Dominating

Not a bad question. Couple angles here. First off I actually got 2.5 (but typo’d above) but I see now the lines growing to 3 or even 3.5 and I’m fine fading the steam. In general, side with small home dog in B1G on weekends (unless I see something majorly mismatched like UM @ Wiscy)

Illy is a young team with a new coach and I think they’re generally getting better each game. They’ve hung in a lot of games but fell apart late. Penn State is in a tough spot here on a Sunday night game with a big rematch vs. OSU coming up next. And yes, PSU had that big win in Columbus, but they’re still only 3-5 on the road with the 2 B1G road wins by 4 & 3.

Love your big game analysis

Well then we’ll both be happy if Penn State wins by 1 or 2.

teecee · 02-11-18, 06:47 PM

Yeah, I sided with PSU. Just think this is a much more important game for them. They have to win this game. No one expects them to beat OSU twice, so the pressure of that game SHOULD be non-existent. I def tried to find a reason to back Illini, but just couldn't find it. I really think Penn State's road record is where we would expect it to be, as they've played what I believe to be a decent road schedule.

DOM_Toretto · 02-12-18, 10:32 AM

Long overdue record update and it ain’t pretty. Had one really bad day last week and been grinding out a winner at a time since. Ready to get hot and go on a February & March run like the last couple years.

124-112-6 +1.3x
