Look at the 5:49 a.m. line at Pinny. They juiced the living shit out of Drake backers. Combined with being a single-possession home fave (no-no for me) and a popular one at that -- you can't just look at the fact that they opened at -1 and closed at -2.5 and assume the line movement is telling you Drake is the play. Have to read into it more sometimes. Not to mention Missouri State got hit late; some books closed at -2.

Not sure why this line was like this to begin with. Missouri State is clearly the better team. Too much stock put into one bad game by Wichita State.

Line made sense. Drake picks off a lot of teams in Des Moines.
With that being said, there's a big difference between a team like Drake being +1 or +2 at home vs. -1 or -2. Hard to ever back a team like that as a short fave.

I want to go off on you for creating a fuking dumb ass piece of shit thread title but then I had a great epiphany!
If I will just fade plays that dumb ass motherfukers create, such as this one, I will be rich in 10-20 years...
Carry on!

Albert is normally a good poster with solid bets -- especially in the MVC.
Everyone has one of these from time to time. Shit happens.

One of the Drake guards was 1-11 shooting. Other dude was 2-9. That was their demise..
These bums didnt score any points last three mini yes of 1H or first three minutes of 2H.

I'm 16-7 in the MVC and I know what I'm talking about. Drake opened -1 and got hammered to -4. Square plays don't get steamed like that. Simons being out hurt their chances a lot and I don't know when that was announced. I had stuff going on all day and didn't check until after I saw the box score without him. Sometimes you lose, that's betting. If anyone looked at the silly title and faded for that reason, good for you. But with a healthy Simons I'll take Drake -1 in this spot 100 times out of 100 and make a substantial profit after those 100 games.
If anyone wants to book my MVC bets, go ahead and offer. You won't come out ahead.
