    Kansas -3 is a sucker bet

    Game opened KU -2. Why didn't the Jayhawks open at least -3.5 here?

    Love the Jayhawks but I expect a bounceback performance from Sparty here. They have the bigs to neutralize KU's size. They also have the perimeter defenders to limit guys like Releford and Johnson.

    Books have laid the bait with the short line for Kansas here.

    Michigan State +3.5 and ML is the play.

    No such thing as a sucker bet.

    Your logic was, I love the Jayhawks, BUT I don't. Yours doesn't seem much better.

    Partly why I would prefer to take points than lay them.

    With Kansas being the side that looks more attractive, the ML just dropped from -165 to -155 at my book. I'm not gonna touch this one.

    The only bets that are "square" or "sucker" bets are those that lose.

    Is it square to bet $2 to win $1 on a coin flip, bet tails, and tails comes up?

    michigan state isn't really a ranked team this year, and might even end up a bubble team

    Kansas -3

    On paper, it looks like MSU and Duke are the plays tonight.

    Devils are favored despite being ranked lower, and MSU opened as a single possession dog despite being ranked much lower.

    We'll see.

    You're basing this on one game? MSU almost always looks like dogshit in November.

    Michigan st...had alot of trouble getting the ball past mid court ...there for rushing themselves for a shot is why they shot so poorley...plus the ucon guards were way to.fast ..kansas has some talented guards ..got.to.favor kansas if it a.fast pace game..

    I like KU in this spot, Michigan State looked flat against a one dimensional UConn team last Friday and Withey should be able to dominate inside.

    If KU shoots at least 30% from 3 we'll win the game going away.

    Too much defense from Kansas in this one.

    KU -3 all day

    Thats because you're a broke loser and cant afford to deposit anymore since your mommy took away your allowance. Oh and also your FAT and ugly confirmed by your videos. And a pedophile as confirmed by shari.

    Aww...did my earlier comments touch a nerve, Fat Boy? The thought of 22 year olds living on their own burying Fat 30 year olds living with their parents must just drive you to the edge, eh? Little piece of advice, Fatty...never show frustration on the internet
