UConn opens up -7.5 SDSU

**pavyracer** · 04-01-23, 11:06 PM

This is interesting as the books are trying to bait the public to take the points. I don't think SDSU has anything left in the tank. UConn should never be threatened at all.

I hope that is the case

**Art Vandelay** · 04-02-23, 01:11 AM

Thought the total might be higher - Opened at 130.5 - SD St can muck it up a bit but I still think it goes over

**CanuckG** · 04-02-23, 02:17 AM

Opened 6 at most NV books and went up quick

**Headsterx** · 04-02-23, 03:40 AM

Got it at -6.5 and I’ll keep buying, buying and buying. No “pump and dump” here but “pump and CASH OVERLOAD!”

WWE has Suplex City, but UConn has Blowout City!

Another college championship that is already decided before tip off. I’ll be shocked if the ratings aren’t absolute trash. This isn’t a game worth a damn just give uconn the title by default

This is exactly what I told my books… pay me now, damn it!

**Snowball** · 04-02-23, 07:12 AM

I think it's too high.
SDSU has 3-4 bigs on the floor and is tremendously good against the 3.

**TheMoneyShot** · 04-02-23, 07:17 AM

Anyone notice BOL future opening line for the Championship game about 36 hours ago??

UConn -4.5 VS San Diego State. They were way off.

**johnnyvegas13** · 04-02-23, 07:24 AM

I was guessing-6.5

iowa w and UConn ml parlay is the play

**Headsterx** · 04-02-23, 07:25 AM

The betting public already has a favorite side for Monday’s NCAA national title game between the UConn Huskies and San Diego Aztecs.

Fresh off demolishing the Miami Hurricanes in Saturday’s Final Four, UConn moved from an opening spread of -5 at DraftKings to -6.5 within just 5 minutes, before settling at -7.5 at DK. The line is as high as -8.5 at SugarHouse.

Monday’s over/under, meanwhile, currently ranges anywhere from 130 to 132, depending on the shop.

Sugar house ???

sounds like a breakfast chain

Philly sportsbook, place smells like an ash tray

Reportedly super book debated opening line one guy said 5 other guy 8 opened 6 and public hammered it up to 7.5. Give that guy who chose 8 a raise

Steam quickly happened at a lot of books

Lots of good poker action.

**brock** · 04-02-23, 10:11 AM

I was guessing eight -7.5 looks good. UConn for me.

Hey look guys Ted Turner here worried about the ratings again. Get some sunshine man, it’ll be good for you

No love for the marginalized in college basketball! Can’t have bad ratings, how will the giant corporations survive???!!!!

I don’t care about the ratings but I mention the ratings because it’s the only way to show that people don’t care. You like watching games where one team has absolutely no shot of winning the title? Watch the tournament for a few weeks just to know in the end around the elite 8 the tournament was all done?

It’s funny how surface level you took my comment. If you thought about it you would understand how my comment is actually aligned

I know a poker dealer at Sugar House, when I was in physical rehab for my hip in NJ at the same time he was there for a bum arm.

He deals low limit games, he referred to the low limit games as 'white chip' games, which I found kind of funny since I never heard that term before, anyway he told me "just play some live action at the white chip games if you want to pick up a couple of hundred easy dollars, the fish that play are clueless"

I have had an absolute blast watching this tournament man. You should enjoy life a little more, you’ve been sounding very bitter on here a lot lately

Me too, loving this tourney.
I personally think the ratings tomorrow will be OK, not great, but not piss poor either, somewhere up the middle.

Duke is OK in my book, I kind of like the dude.

I'm not jumping ugly here because he makes a reasonable argument, I understand his PoV, I don't understand the over the top concern he has about the ratings because I'm a tad selfish, by that I mean I'll watch the game, that's a given, if nobody else does and the ratings tank that's not my problem, as long as I'm not paying for the marketing and advertising, and nothing is coming out of my pocket, I couldn't care less if the game got an eight share or a fourteen share, doesn't alter my life one iota.

**texhooper** · 04-02-23, 12:30 PM

Yeah nash I like the dude, but he’s been in a bit of a mood lately. He has been a cloud and not a rainbow. It’s sports and gambling man, we should be having fun! The beauty of the tournament is there’s 68 teams, and everyone has a chance. Yeah it’s been looking for awhile like UConn is gonna win it all, but who cares. I like good ball and we’ve gotten plenty of that and I don’t care if anyone else is watching.

**Enkhbat** · 04-02-23, 12:39 PM

UCONN just destroyed Gonzaga and Miami FL, so this one is probably a 10 point win.

Probably. SDSU does have pretty good midrange shooting which will help them, because where it falls apart for most teams is when they try to get to the basket everything just breaks down. But it’ll take more than just that to beat this team

**stevenash** · 04-02-23, 12:58 PM

^
What I don't understand is why teams feel compelled to take it inside the paint against UConn.
They don't just have trees in the pivot, they have redwoods, it's not one singular redwood either, the Huskies have a mother freaking forest down there.

It's not just Sanogo, there's Clingan, and Karaban too.
Huskies reduced Timmee a jellyfish in the Gonzaga game.
There's a reason why UConn's team defense metrics are elite.
They'll beat you inside out, with Hawkins, or outside in with Sanogo.
They have snipers with unlimited range as well.

You can beat UConn with perimeter shooting, but you better bring your 'A' game shooters, if you don't, well you've seen the destruction, a string of twenty point blowouts.

Raff said it best yesterday when he said to Nantz, "Huskies just keep coming at you in waves"
Reminds me some of Geno's Maya Moore championship teams, those girls kept coming at you in waves as well.

FAU would have given UConn a much better game. You have to have outside shooters to beat UConn. Bully ball isnt going to work.
