Any comments on this line?
I'll take the over.
Add...
Of all the games with lines tonight, we are the biggest road favorite.
(UNC is a 38 point favorite at home against Nicolas State, how do you take the over in a game like that?)
LSU is a quality team as well at 7-3 and with four returning starters from last season. The Tigers have played a more difficult schedule with just four home games compared to six road games. LSU is 3-1 at home this season, outscoring opponents 75.2 to 64.2 on average.
Marquette is just 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall, which proves that they are overvalued. The Golden Eagles are 0-4 ATS in their last five games as a favorite as well. LSU is 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record. The Tigers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog. LSU is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. These last four trends make for a 19-0 system backing the Tigers. Take LSU Monday.
MU covers and go with the over.

ATS is as useful as the board that shows past roulette numbers.

Won't bet the game (almost never bet on games MU is favored that I'll be watching live), but I'd take the 7.5. MU has been allowing a few more buckets a game than expected without Otule. Gun to my head I'd take the over, as I think MU will really try to dictate tempo tonight with a healthy 10 for the first time since Washington.

Hey... have you ever seen that Discovery Channel showing "Breaking Vegas" ? There was a team who found out certain roulette tables have bias on certain numbers and bet accordingly.
They won millions before the casinos banned the entire team.
