3 and a half. It took a long time for any lines to come out. It will probably get tighter by gametime depending on betting action. Seems to be about right IMHO. Basically home court advantage although there will be a lot of evil red at the BC. Anyone hear what tickets are going for?

FIRE UP MARQUETTE!!!
It'll be interesting to see how much red is in the house .. the tickets never went on sale to the public, and were snapped up by season ticket holders. I'd have to guess because of that, there'll be the least amount ever. Not zero, because traitorous season ticket holders do exist!!!
.. 3.5 for MU .. I think that's high. I'd have said +1 MU, if not a pick-em.
eBay has seats going from $75-150 in the upper deck.
I'd say it's too high. I thought maybe MU minus-1 to 1 1/2.
People on badgermaniac were saying that UW has enough tickets to make it seem like a home game for them, but that could be the Kool-Aid talking.
I would say that the teams are pretty close, and would likely be even or very close to it. I think the 3.5 points are for the home-court, which is to be expected. I'm not really surprised at all.
I just checked with the Jamaicans this morning and they have it at 4. A bit high for my tastes, but what the hell, I'm going to the window.
GO MU!
MU Favored by.....all right thinking individuals.
