This may be anecdotal, but it seems Vegas and Pomeroy have been further apart this year compared to recent years.

Good point, likely... but Ed was a net negative contributor, would the model factor that in?

My question, is that a sucker line? Many times back in my day I would have jumped all over a line like that. So are you a buyer of the +2.5?

Shoulda taken MU +2.5 when I had the chance.

I highly doubt I’ll touch this game with $. Don’t love betting MU in general, but this one especially.

I think X is a relatively weak team, but yeah... unless it’s MU +5 it’s probably not enough to draw me in

Yes. Dropped to 1.5. I decided to go with Moneyline at +105.  Road teams not faring well, but we played pretty well at GTown and Seton Hall. Xavier’s offense blows.  Made out quite well betting against X at Creighton.

Down to 1 now.

I took MU +2.5.

This game worries me a bit. X is a dreadful 3p shooting team but the games they hit them they become a good team very quickly. Teams usually shoot better at home, too.

I hope Wojo packs in the defense and doesn't panic if they hit a few shots early. If they beat us over the top, so be it.

Line is down to Xavier -1.

Xavier's season is basically over if they lose.  Maybe some back-against-the-wall is priced into the line

Just put small $$ on MU +1.5. What the heck

Back to -2

Jumping in at +2.

Here’s hoping we bounce back.

Line back up to -2 XU. Weird.

Well they shot it great from 3.......we played large chunk of the game without  our star player.....and still won.

Goodin makes 5 3s......now that’s a nut punch!
