Anyone betting the Maui Invitational?

[Reload]

Always the one tourney I can get into each year. Nice to just leave it on for three straight days and enjoy the slow work week.

UConn's first real test in their march (see what I did there) towards an historic three-peat.

I took UNC yesterday -7 for first round vs Dayton. Love this tournament also Reload. Glad UNC is back in it. Always the best tournament of the year aside from the big dance of course.

[unde0087]

UNC game is up and down. Love it

[unde0087]

I bet UNC at the half +375 to win. Fell asleep 2 minutes into 2nd half. Woke up to a winner. 59 point 2nd half. Unreal.

One tip and one question:

1) Is the Maui Invite where the rims are like nerf-hoops? IE, if you put it on the rim, the rims seem to be incredibly forgiving. Leads to higher-scoring games. No?

2) Q to the masses. How soft are the November early-season Coll Hoop lines?
...So many teams. Can't keep em all straight.
...Oddsmaker staff can't keep up with the Coll Bask. 90% of the focus is still on football.

I got UConn -8 1H, I think they blow buffs doors off early, gl men

Yes, Maui is known for “friendly rims.”

Sure, the first month of hoops can have soft lines. You’ll hear some say it usually takes 4-6 weeks for the bookies to catch up. Would still tread light though.

Miracle push with how they ended the half unreal

[SBR Andy]

Memphis vs Auburn in the final today at 5:00 PM ET.

Line: AUB -8 / 155.5

[stevenash]

I'll take the points, Memphis can play with anybody.

Not for nothing I'm not concerned, UConn has a giant bullseye on their back.
Every team wants to stick it to us this year, I get that, comes with the territory.
This team will be ready come March, I'm not expecting a three-peat, but you never know.

Hurley will work out the few kinks, like too many turnovers.
We'll be there come March. How far we go yet to be seen.

Nope, basketball has been dead to me for years now....used to be a massive fan.

I hear you Jake, I like the running up tempo game, it's still a fun sport for me.

But I hear what you are saying.

nasher, I won't bore you with the various reasons but I will just say it is not the game I grew up enjoying.

[Otters27]

This McNeely guy has cost UConn twice

[SBR Andy]

Auburn looking like the best team in the country so far.

I know it’s early in the season but when was the last time a #1 / 2 .. hell even top 10 team lost 3 in a row ? crazy
