    Louisville +2.5??????
    Louisville is +2.5 at Pitt tommorow. Pitt has been great in conference so far. I dont understand how Louisville would be a favorite over them on a neutral site. I really think Louisville will cover this tommorow but who knows. Louisville has won back-to-back times at Pitt which NOBODY has ever done IIRC. Oddsmakers must have a lot of faith in Louisville

      they would be on a neutral court. Home court is a solid 3 points at least. Louisville would be close to a 1-2 point fave on a neutral court

          I like the Over 136.5, the game spread is a coin flip in my opinion. Good Luck T!

            I think Pitt is looking a lot better than they are and Louisville is looking worse than what they are, but still I always go with the hot team in toss up games. It just happens that Pitt is hot and at home. Pitt is the play if you're going to touch spread, IMO.

                I like the Cards too when I first saw the number. Just not impressed w/Pitt.

                  Well, you know what they say about lines that look too good to be true . . .

                  I was shocked to see the number in Pitt-Louisville at 2; nearly as surprised to see VT getting 5 at Florida State. Neither of these lines are close to what I expected and if I had any guts I'd hit both of these games hard, but more often than not, I'm wrong about these kinds of things.

                    I initially liked Louisville, but then upon further review decided the spread is too close to call.

                        I am all over Pitt

                        Cards are poorly coached and that means a lot in college hoops

                          What doesn't impress you about a team that wins outright AT Syracuse as a 10-point underdog, wins AT Cinci and then wins by double digits AT Connecticut while getting a touchdown? I don't know what Pitt's going to do today, but those last three games have been VERY impressive.

                            Agreed...how can you not be impressed with Pitt?? Louisville is the disappointment! Line does look like trap but Pitt is the call

                              how could you not like the home team? Just because you cant name a player on their team doesnt mean there not for real.

                                  FWIW Big Al and Larry Ness both have Louisville as a pick for today, though I agree they have been less than impressive.

                                                Louisville had that game all but locked up. up 5 with 41 seconds and the ball

                                                up 4 with 25 seconds and Sosa on the line, shooting two

                                                horrible coaching, let them run around all crazy, dumb fouls, horrible free throw shooting. big time chokers. don't know any of these pitt guys, don't think any of them were pre-season big east anything. but maybe they are the real deal.

                                                        Squares, ? The square pick was going with a overvalued Louisville team because of there preseason ranking and past achievements. How was Pitt the square pick?

                                                          Pitt is NOT this good. They are a team with lots of role players that Jamie Dixon squeezes every last drop out of. they are 5-0 in the big east. I don't see them going better than 4-9 or 5-8 the rest of the way. They just don't have the horses long term.
