    #1 Oklahoma travels to Iowa State tonight

    Great Big 12 game here. These two teams have played some thrillers in recent years.

    Ames is a very tough place to play. Last year Oklahoma blew a huge lead in this matchup at ISU. They already played each other once this year and OU narrowly escaped with the win.

    I like Iowa State to get this one tonight. Niang will step up with a big game tonight.

    I've got the sooners (+9.5) in my teaser...that should be relatively safe considering they are probably the best team in the land right now...

    not only that but the Sooners did beat them a few weeks ago 87 - 83...good game that went back and forth and came down to the final possession...I expect a similar type of game tonight in Ames...

    They are getting points because they are on the road playing a top team, nothing fishy about it

    Cyclones were leading most of that game and went cold in the last 3 min. That rarely happens at Hilton. If you like OU, bet them 1st half.

    Just live bet this game, the two most sporadic teams in the country. Last year if I remember ISU had huge lead in Norman and blew the game and last year in Ames OU was up by like 20 in the second half and lost.

    Consensus #'s are a joke, can't take any of them seriously.

    Right now I could probably find 20 different consensus #'s for this game

    Which one is right? Who knows

    Just pick the winner boys, it's very easy

    Bet it live be a back and forth gm and get better value on either side honestly I think. Personally I never like backing a NEWLY crowned #1 in polls and fade if anything. Bol everyone!

    What "feel" would that be?

    Iowa State almost won in Norman, but they have no bench and play no defense.

    They have experience and a good homecourt advantage. And talent.

    Just because you don't have a clue here doesn't mean someone else doesn't. You're not betting the game. That's fine. This thread was created to talk about the game since it's a big matchup. Nobody is holding a gun to anyone's head.

    I'm usually pessimistic about OU but my gut says they win tonight despite how tough of a place Ames is to play.

    It will probably be another back and forth game.

    You have zero discipline. That's why you lose so much. You bet every prime time game on the lot (or at least, pretend to).

    Your reasoning is "they have experience and a good homecourt advantage"? That's it? LOL.

    Speak for yourself. You repeatedly bet on teams you've never even watched and then bitch when you lose and copy and paste the play by play of the last couple minutes of the game. As if just reading a play by play tells the story of how the game unfolded.

    Maybe Iowa State is just a sore spot for you. I remember you putting like 30 units on a juicy Iowa State moneyline a year or two ago and losing your lunch. Naturally you bitched about this and that after the game but in reality you know you had no one to blame but yourself.

    So your angle is seriously "they have experience and a good homecourt advantage"?

    Trying really hard to believe you do anything but chuck darts these days.

    I couldn't care less about this game. Just trying to figure out how someone could possibly have an "angle" here, given what these teams did against each other the first time around and the current form they're in.

    Just like you bud. Not sure there's anyone on this forum who bets more teams he's never even seen play.

    Now if you have any thoughts on this game, by all means share with the rest of us. If not, you might as well leave. Pretty evident you're just looking for an argument here
