    Virginia Vs Iowa St. total

    I'm not much of a college hoops player, dabble here and there. But I did catch the total of this game which threw me off a bit. It must be rather rare to see a 140+ total in a Virg game. I know Iowa St is amped up and probably the reason why it's set up there, but the only games I could find a total of 140+ in a Virg game was vs Oakland of this year @150.5 and it went under and WF @140.5 that went over by 2.5. Dug a bit deeper and the only other recent one I found was vs. VCU back in '13 which went under.

    Is Iowa St going to dictate the pace of this game? How do they fare against up-tempo teams?

    For example, Virginia faced UNC 2 times. Once in the regular season, that one ended in the low 150s (79-74), then again in the acc tournament, that one ended 118 (61-57). It's a crap shoot, unc plays same style as ISU up and down. Hard to bet the over in a Virginia game when the total is that high as they hold most teams to around 60 points no matter what style they play.

    Thanks unde! I see the totals were set, respectively 136.5 and 138.5 in those games. I am sure conf play has a lot to do with that. Just threw me off a bit seeing that total tonight. I will not touch it, just wanted some insight. Thanks.

    Virginia could score in the 80's themselves

    Ya, I would imagine so they play each other quite often. Just trying to give you a team that plays to the same game speed as ISU.

    Nah. I don't tell anyone what to do. I don't like the thought of anyone losing their money, I wish I didn't start the thread to be honest.

    I could be silenced in a few hours.

    Another way to look at it - its the lowest total on a Iowa St game this year.

    Not much time here so I'll say that less predicitve math guys are seeing closer to 140 or 141 points while sharper lines to tend toward the Under.

    I basically have Virginia winning by 6 points, which is about the line, with a Total getting down to 133 or 134 points.

    The money seems pretty well split with extra money on what I see as less tickets coming as pressure on the Over. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the sharper Under bettors get one here.

    Sorry so late, it's a busy day.

    Good Luck Jmon.

    I thought that total was high too, but at the half they are above it.

    found out Virg can run with the big boys and should have bet the over based on the line, but didn't. Yet cashed the 2H
