johnnyvegas13 · 03-25-21, 07:17 AM

They also got two easy draws

baylor will win here

USCPHILLYGUY · 03-25-21, 07:17 AM

FWIW I do not see this game being remotely close. This is the classic men vs boys. Hoping I’m wrong...

Jayvegas420 · 03-25-21, 07:18 AM

Yeah...vs. Winthrop and north tex
different story on sat

Jayvegas420 · 03-25-21, 07:25 AM

I agree with Archie, the previous two 6 point spreads were gifts

First understand what a trap game is.

There is no trap game here. Baylor is not looking ahead, nor or they thinking this game is a walk in the bark. Nothing about it smells trap.

Operational Definitions are key

there are two interpretation of a trap game

the sporting fan uses the one you talked about often for the espn talking heads

but in gambling we have that trap game/trap line terminology that is more about the bookmakers trying to trick you with a fishy line.

very different things

jjgold · 03-25-21, 08:05 AM

neutral courts no such thing as a trap game

trap games only apply to college hoops and here is what they are

Baylor lets say ranked 2 in Country........................at Oklahoma who is unranked

Baylor -2

Duke on road 10th ranked at St Johns unranked

PICK EM

MEN LEARN THE DAMN GAME

Nothing fishy about a 7.5 line.

Like I said nothing “smells fishy here”

Oh yes there is!!

Every week in the NFL

Otters27 · 03-25-21, 09:11 AM

The low line seems like a trap for Joe public.

That is what I meant

Now that makes more sense buddy.

Top five coach, that's for sure.

Nova with a nice showing but it ends here.Too many bodies and too much dee from Baylor. Call it 73-64 Da Bears

Baylor m/l in another m/l chalk fave may be the best play if you like Baylor.

Conversely if one likes 'Nova than take a shot on a nice payoff - Nova m/l is +253

I try to stay clear away from betting 'unders' but +141.5 is high.
I do like the 1H under for a small wager though.
Reason being I think Nova may want to slow the pace down some.
Just my opinion.

Good info bud!!

I don’t see both teams getting 70+ points.

Thanks, that's how I pretty much see it too.

*edit* first sentence isn't clear enough, I meant to say m/l parlay with Baylor and another chalk m/l team one may like.

Passing on the side for now, small lean on 'Nova +7.5.
Like the 1H under total, will probably jump in on some live bets as the game develops, see if I can spot a trend as it develops.

Impossible. Jayvegas says lines are always the same everywhere.

Nova has covered both spreads so far and are shooting well

They have played no one and are one of the worst teams in the country at defending the paint, Baylor is huge team.

All their scorers are 6'4 and under. This is not 2012 Baylor

Wrongside · 03-26-21, 12:34 AM

I thought Big 12 was sort of crap this year. Still not sure about
Baylor. Lot to like though

Baylor is a huge team, size matter on the boards and for scoring dumb shit.

Jayvegas420 · 03-26-21, 12:47 AM

Baylor is certainly not what I would call a huge team. Illinois, yeah...BAMA, THATS an all around huge team.
Baylor not so much.

Unrivaled · 03-26-21, 12:53 AM

They are underrated but since Morino seems to like them I'm sure they will lose somehow.

sweethook · 03-26-21, 04:39 AM

will play it , trap or not ..gl
