Classic Trap Tonight: UConn vs Seton Hall

Big Bear · 01-03-12, 11:28 AM

so take seton hall?

BIGDAY · 01-03-12, 11:29 AM

Was hoping to get +5 with Seton at home. Hopeully line moves as +2 is tricky. Line is probably right on.

I bit.

But then again I'm squarer than Opie.

Landscaper · 01-03-12, 11:31 AM

If I remember the hall beat them last year at home

Big Bear · 01-03-12, 11:33 AM

has anyone seen Hall play this season? I remember them beating st johns last year

EaglesPhan36 · 01-03-12, 12:09 PM

Only problem I have here is the only legit team Seton Hall played ['Cuse] destroyed them, albeit on the road. Otherwise this team has 12 wins over mostly mediocre competition. UConn certainly isn't unbeatable, but this is a good game to pass on me thinks. Gold lookin' for some glory if Jersey comes through tonight.

the odds on this one make a little more sense when you look at how close some uconn final results have been despite the husky dominance this year. also seton hall can score so it makes enough sense to me to not think its a trap i but am definitely proceeding with caution.

Got UConn and a free half point when line first came out.

UConn -1.5. I like it at that number. At -3 not so much.

EDDIE MONEY LINE · 01-03-12, 01:48 PM

My initial thought was the hall is the pick. Think they win straight up. My plays today are Nebraska and alabama.

Fang-Banger · 01-03-12, 02:00 PM

hall coming off a blow out over west Virginia. uconn will steamroll them. hall not good enough to beat two quality opponents in a row.

uconn -3 now

Cuse0323 · 01-03-12, 02:01 PM

Herb Pope is gonna work Drummond after he said he never heard of Pope.

jjgold · 01-03-12, 02:01 PM

Betting the trap

Thunders77 · 01-03-12, 02:11 PM

One stat does alarm me is that UConn has an 18-1 SU Series Edge against the Hall.

Louisvillekid1 · 01-03-12, 02:14 PM

Hall outright, UCONN will struggle on road all season...

Statement time for the Pirates...

wrong, seton hall destroyed west virginia last friday night

southpaw74 · 01-03-12, 04:52 PM

I'm staying away but would play the hall if I needed to

EaglesPhan36 · 01-03-12, 04:55 PM

Jury is out on WVU for me. They have played some good teams tough in neutral court situations, but that was a first road contest in conference play. I still think they're middle of the pack in the Big East, but time will tell that might be a real good win for Seton Hall at the end of the season.

SASH · 01-03-12, 04:59 PM

Disagree eagles, WVU's a quality team this year that makes it to the sweet 16 and maybe even the elite 8

Jaug · 01-03-12, 05:08 PM

I think connecticut is the right pick here. Seton hall overperforming so far.

jonathon1995 · 01-03-12, 05:19 PM

No waaaaaaay does WVU make it to the 8. That's bananas. POSSIBLY the 16. I even consider that an outside shot.

Every night Seton Hall is just a tossup as to whether or not Herb Pope and Jordan Theodore decide to play out of their minds or not. Eh, much better teams to be betting on....

kfranz31 · 01-03-12, 05:41 PM

uconn should crush these boys

personally i think SH is one of the better bets on the board..ucon way overvalued as a road fav here..

Pete0 · 01-03-12, 06:05 PM

Move this sh1t to the Riddle Tank subforum already

I said much better teams (not games) to be betting on (or against) over the course of a season than Seton Hall because as I also said in that post, they randomly have nights where those two dudes are unstoppable.

jjgold · 01-03-12, 06:24 PM

It is now -3..we all think the same

ny03than · 01-03-12, 06:28 PM

like SH. i will take ML.

Glitch · 01-03-12, 06:44 PM

hope you guys arent betting on seton hall of the last 2 years tonight instead of this year's.

if you like it for the trap aspect- its a good play.

if you like it on basketball merits alone, you should know that uconn was in control of most of those close games for most of the game- they are very sick, versatile and efficient this year.

Pope puts up over 20 points tonight for sh but they lose by 4-9 most likely.
