Sounds like another slight to MU. 

I would imagine no other 3/14 matchup is a closer line than 8.

Not really a slight.

Vegas has paid attention to how MU starts the game away from home. Add in the normal tension of an NCAA game and it seems a fair number.

Have to disagree.  Vegas places the line where they think they will get 50% of the money on both sides.  This tells me that Vegas thinks Davidson will be a popular upset pick, so they have brought the line down pretty far to have enough money back MU on the game.

That means Vegas wants people to bet on MU...not a good sign.

Right. I was talking fair number in terms of Vegas rather then fair number in terms of a casual fan who thinks their team should be a sure bet.

Of all the #3 vs. #14 seeds .. MU has the smallest point margin, 3-4.  The other ones are 10+.

Grrrreat.

This is not really true. The best bookmakers take a side.

But they're not going to take a side on something this random.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

Mu suspect away from Milwaukee. I would not touch this game.

Davidson shoots the 3 well and MU has made a conscious decision to let teams go bombs away this year. Thats the one matchup that scares the crap out of me.
