    First one of the new year. ND basketball tonight. In football the Houston Cougars did it to me twice. It seems as if that number never comes into play when you take the +1.5, just -1.5, or is it just me?

      2 is the key number in college hoops. Buy 1/2 point off/on 2 during March Madness.

        I would rather lose by a blowout and just be on the wrong side of the wager.

          How many times do you win by the hook?

            I lose more by the hook than I win by the hook.

              Happened to me in the Cincy/Pitt NCAAF game earlier this year. I can't recall ever being on the winning +1.5 side, probably because I usually take the ML. I will go ML on the fav from now on if I can't buy the 1/2 point. I learned my lesson.

                      happened to me enough times that refused to take a -1 1/2 or -2 line, i'd take the ML or nothing.

                        LeBron did me in with -1.5 last night. The beat goes on.
