    have you seen VCU. they are pissed that they got disrespected by the espn crew on selection night and are playing with huge chip.

    they killed gtown. and they have some guys who actually play like they have a clue. very poised. i wouldnt be shocked if they beat purdue. definitely taking the points.

    Just hope that Purdue doesn't have shooting problems again. It looked like they finally got rid of them last game.

    wow...I feel for anyone who bet on Purdue. I had the same feeling after the Iowa game.


    That Iowa game cost me all my football winnings.

    When Purdue lost to Iowa and MSU that was a sign they were a fraud. MSU watched tape and they knew if they could shut down the lanes for Moore Purdue couldn't count on Johnson for all the production.

    There is supposedly a lot of in-fighting at Purdue affecting team chemistry.

    Why does anyone ever use the word lock, you only jinx yourself. There is no such thing as a lock especially when you are talking about an up and down team like Purdue. If you actually watched Purdue all season you would know that sometimes they play amazing and look like a top 3 team, and then inexplicably on other nights they play like they don't belong in the Big Ten. I can't believe that you would claim this pick of yours to be a lock especially when VCU has been playing so well this tournament. Even if you had bet the ML on Purdue that wasn't a sure thing, you were giving +9.5 on this bet at probably the value was -115 and you were calling it a lock?????? I am not a pro at sports betting, I just do it for fun and try to make smart bets and win small amounts of money, but I do know that you can't make the claim for a lock on a game like Purdue -9.5 vs. a hot team like VCU in the NCAA tourney. Better luck to you next time when you get more funds my friend.
