    Good CBB play...

    Been running numbers on Maryland-Rutgers and I think the books missed the number here. Without going into detail and to keep it short, I have the Number at Maryland -3, not -6 like most shops do. I'll take the generous extra 3 and Rutgers here. Nice +EV.

    Good luck if you do.

    I think Terps win and win pretty easily.

    Don't think Maryland is too motivated. Rutgers got healthy. I think they give them a good run for their money tonight.

    I think the opposite. Maryland can't afford a bad showing here coming off 3 straight losses they need a good showing.

    I just think the coaching staff of Maryland has lost the players. There's been some grumbling going on, but that comes with playing bad. I just think 6 points is a gift here with the home court and a chance for Rutgers to make some noise.

    You are probably right, Terps are a soft team and it has shown. But i would think that everyone on the team knows this is a must win for them at this point if they want to save any face going forward. A loss to Rutgers could mean 5 straight losses as they have to finish with MSU, who has been playing very well.

    That's why I thought taking 6 was the play here. I adjusted the number a few times and decided on Maryland -3. I just think they are lost right now and being on the road doesn't help. They win the game I think, but not by much.

    That's why you can get a decent number tonight.

    GL ranger, we shall see how it plays out. I just think Terps win going away like they always do against Rutgers. None of their recent games have been very close.

    It will be an interesting watch. There's always that chance of me looking bad here, lol. One of those cases where I need a bad team to do good things, or just enough to cover the number. Best of luck to you too.

    Good call, Unde. You were spot on. I expected a bad team to do good things. Sometimes I do stuff like this and it works out, lol. Nice call.
