Who ya got? Feels like too many points…I’m staying away.
-6 right now on draftkings.
I would either take UConn -6 or Marquette moneyline (or maybe both).
We could continue playing terribly and lose against a good team.
Or it could be the case that we're a really bad matchup for Marquette and we win by a comfortable margin. I have no idea.
But if you're taking Marquette +6 you might as well take them outright.
We have a number of OT games and close losses, but otherwise we've tended to win handily.Hmmm I think I disagree ... we seem to always play close games, I think Marquette +6 or UConn ML might make sense. But in gambling, I could be (see: am always) wrong.
I have not bet on any hoops yet and I have some money left from my awful football postseason so I might dip in and see what I can do.
Our only games we really won handily were against the weaker teams. I can't make sense of the line. UConn desperately needs a win and they're at home but Marquette has Morsell this time who put the clamps on us last year in the tournament.We have a number of OT games and close losses, but otherwise we've tended to win handily.
I mean, it's possible we win a close game, but I think the bulk of the probability distribution once you get to the Marquette side of +6 is concentrated in Marquette actually winning the game, and the odds make it worthwhile even if you lose it more often than you win.
That said, I just threw down a bet on Marquette +6.5 while I wait on moneyline becoming available. I might cancel the +6.5 later.
I guess it is only three poor games but it feels like ten!I’m a bit surprised to be honest, Marquette has been playing well, UConn has stunk up the court for four straight games.
But I hope they are right!
What else do you do for fun....are cats involved?Marquette will win by 8-12 points. The free fall will continue

Scrappy?I actually think we cover the line tonight....with Hawkins having more confidence I think he'll have a big breakout game. If he and Polley both get going from deep we are a totally different team. We do need Sanogo to stay out of foul trouble, but if he can do that and we can get him some touches early I think we win going away. The team is desperate need of a big win and I'm optimistic we get it tonight.
Nah, I just don't think we can play worse than we did the past few games. Our defensive intensity needs to improve A LOT and hopefully Saturday was a wake up call. We know we have the ability to play great team defense, we've just not seen it the past couple of games. If we come out and play closer to what we saw in the 2nd half of the Nova game I think we'll be in a good spot.Scrappy?

If that happens then UConn is in heaps of troubleMarquette will win by 8-12 points. The free fall will continue.
