Big 10 Tournament

**Chandler** · 03-10-11, 01:14 AM

seems like a good angle. teams will be playing tight and nervous, neautral courts

**flyingillini** · 03-10-11, 01:14 AM

Go illini!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**mattmc419** · 03-10-11, 01:15 AM

GO BLUE!!

Really expecting Michigan to surprise some people

Look for Wisky and Ohio State to play their rubber game in the Tourny Final on Sunday. The Badgers would love to see OSU on a neutral court after last Sunday's debacle.

OSU will roll them

Wisconsin vs GOOD teams on the road =

Purdue will make their way to this final and win it. They are a tough team to beat with johnson playing the way he is right now. My money would be on them at +350

A neutral court is hardly the same as playing a Big 10 game on the road

**paco** · 03-10-11, 02:39 AM

Books have adjusted their totals, but I still see great value.

**Fischnasty** · 03-10-11, 02:53 AM

been a great tourney so far. hoping for more of the same. good luck to everyone

**BiffTFinancial** · 03-10-11, 07:55 AM

actually, i've killed it with overs in the Big Ten this year. public thinks that Big Ten games go under, but in conference this year, overs have been the play. juanitodelfeugo was tracking this in his thread. anywho, for the tourney, i do think that teams are likely to play tighter and make unders more attractive. BOL to you with your plays.

**thadchr** · 03-10-11, 07:56 AM

You certainly won't hit them all, but I think this is a solid strategy. Just don't get too greedy on any one game, and be weary of the true stars, who step up and score points regardless of their systems when the game is on the line.

**Fishhead** · 03-10-11, 08:15 AM

IOWA is a live dog!!!

**Iona** · 03-10-11, 08:24 AM

I will be on Indiana + 4 1/2 today. Pretty much a home game for them.

As always, GL to all today.

Really expecting them to get rolled by Illini the first round.

Big 10 is about as tough pick a conf. tourney winner as the Big East.

**Fishhead** · 03-10-11, 09:19 AM

What a tourney....best brand of ball in USA

**agharah1** · 03-10-11, 09:23 AM

While it is true that the NBA rims at Conseco tend to make for less scoring in Big Ten Tournament games, taking a lot of unders is a poor decision. This year every Big Ten team except Iowa is averaging over 1 point per possession, and Iowa makes up for it by running a lot. The Big Ten has had more talent than its had in years and the games are going over a lot more.

As for Michigan/Illinois, Michigan has never beat Illinois in the big ten tournament ever. Plus Illinois is still a bad matchup because they can jam the lane with 3 7 footers and Michigan doesn't have the bodies to get Tisdale in foul trouble like he does against teams with legit big men.

**Powderguy** · 03-10-11, 09:28 AM

I can't get into watching Big 10 regular season games, such a blaaaah brand of ball, maybe this changes it doubt it

**Michael Ferro** · 03-10-11, 09:42 AM

I like the unders, can't get hurt too bad, but could cash nicely. good luck. Here's to low shooting percentages.

You see, its thinking like this that make people think the unders are a good idea, when the reality is the Big Ten is as strong and as talented as ever.

**Herky** · 03-10-11, 10:11 AM

Big Ten continues to be the top conference in the nation.

Big Ten unders have been a disaster this year. Can't believe the OP.

I agree with Fish re: Iowa, too. Take them at +7 today.

**legendmatt34** · 03-10-11, 11:00 AM

Likin the unders too.. Think they slowed down before...??

**bostonboy** · 03-10-11, 11:46 AM

**zanman822** · 03-10-11, 12:17 PM

I dont see anyone talking about the crappy matchup of the day Minnesota and Northwestern. I will take a chance on Minny +1

**sneak-a-peak** · 03-12-11, 02:24 AM

6-1 so far! nice angle you came up with!

The wisky game 69 total??? are you kiddin me!

**Art Vandelay** · 03-12-11, 02:59 AM

Penn St /Wisky set basketball back 50 years tonight - that was painful to watch. It seems like the rims at Conseco might be a little tight - the only team not affected was MSU. I like Sparty to take out Penn St. tomorrow.
