Guess the Spread for Tomorrow

UConn by 6.5. I want Kolek to play. No way he's ready to play and he'll actually hurt their team if he plays.

I'll go with the -6.5 also
 
We're getting a ton of extra juice by Vegas. KenPom is -6. Marquette was adjusted 1.5 points at open with no Kolek off KenPom line. I'm guessing UConn -8.5.
 
I wish you guys were the bookmaker with those low lines

7 5 +

We're -9 as of this morning on DK.

Does anyone know if Kolek is playing?

He wants to play badly, but I don't see how Smart lets him play. An extra week of rest would make a huge difference for him, especially since they could probably rest him for the 2/15 game too

I honestly wouldn't mind seeing him for the sole purpose of this; just imagine we win this without Marquette having Kolek and the excuses will pile in that we beat a weak field in the tournament.

On the other hand Marquette have a chance at silverware so maybe they let Kolek get a run out.
 
It is actually -9. I don't know if that's a lot of respect for us or a recognition that Marquette without Kolek is fairly diminished and not significantly distinguished from the middle of the pack BE teams against whom we'd be double digit favorites on a neutral floor.

I guarantee that the emerging narrative in justifying us not being #1 overall will be that our only wins over top 25 teams in the last few months were at home (Creighton, Marquette) or without their best player (@Marquette, tonight).
 
Very doubtful Kolek will play to give him more recovery time for the NCAA.
 
Playing Kolek would be dumb, they won't do it.
