Over/Under Total 2.5 - What Say You?

[Waquoit]

Take a nice roadtrip to bet ahahahah

Here's the thing about that. Say you're driving by an out-of-state sports book a few months ago and get off the highway to get UConn at +27.5 . Now coming up to gametime, you have to remember where you put the ticket when it's not in your go-to spot.

You can bet in one of the online things like Draft kings if your phone is out of state at the time of the bet.

I think that's a Mohegan Sun only thing. Someone had their hackels raised about owning the team so I beleve they stopped taking WNBA bets voluntarily. You can bet them on Sugar House. I used SH to bet in-game on Hartford Athletic.

Your right, it is a Mohegan thing. When the new sportsbook opened up, I asked a Fanduel employee and he said they wouldn't be taking any inhouse action. You can't even wager on Fanduel from your hotel room there. They want you to go downstairs and wager at the sportsbook.

Down to 27 now. Someone is betting the Huskies. The win total is up to -120 now up from -115

 

[PNolanFan]

I see us being favored 2-3 times and being single digit underdogs 2-3 times which to me yields 3-4 wins at the median

It's funny - I was at a Mets game a couple of weeks ago and I saw a Draft Kings ad in the stadium. It dawned on me that I could now make my bet! I took the over, I think Mora and Charlton can get it done.

If you live in CT, it doesn't matter. You can't bet on UConn.

Florida. A land of no laws

Same with Nevada. You can be walking down Tropicana Blvd. from the UNLV campus with a couple of the basketball players, on your way to make a wager on that nights game at the MGM

@UConnDan97 - where are you buddy? It’s not game week if you’re not making your preseason projection.

I'm sorry my friend. I've been failing in my duties. Coaching my son's soccer team and other work stuff keeping me away from the good stuff.

But here it is:

W over Utah State by 7. First game. Gotta build into the season.

W over CCSU by 21. We're significantly better, but we love our fellow Nutmeg brethren so we show them respect.

W over Syracuse by 21. They're better than CCSU, but we don't respect them.

W over #8 Michigan by 3. Need a late field goal, but hey, they're top 10 for a reason.

W over #13 NC State by 12. They aren't top 10 for a reason.

W over Fresno by 9. Payback is a...

W over FIU by 18. No sweat, even in Florida.

W over Ball St by 18. They won't have much of the ball.

W over BC by 11. The taste of eagle tears is so sweet.

W over UMass by 28. Perhaps the moment where the Minutemen go back to the Yankee Conference.

W over Liberty by 14. Their WRs can't get free... (see what I did there?)

W over Army by 6. They have toughness. We have the Huskies.

Pride. Heart. UCONN!!!!

So, Connecticut’s season record would be…

Oh, it's 14-0, clearly.

I just couldn't figure out which 2 unlucky schools are going to get us in the playoffs...

UConn beats the spread Saturday. Utah State 38-14.

Not quite the same. You still can't bet on sports legally in FL.

 

[huskyinfl]

ESPN just wrote an article about Utah State and someone betting a thousand bucks for them to win the championship and someone's $100 bet on UConn at 10,000 to 1 was in the article. Be proud

 

[Bubba1957]

I'd base my projections on the Mazzone era (Wyoming and Vandy). They were very competitive against "average" competition. If TP didn't get hurt they would have gone 1-1. So, beat the bad teams, projecting 500+ (Charlton, Mora > Mazzone, Spanos) against the average teams, and losses against the elite teams.
Bad teams (CCSU, UMass) 2 wins
Average Teams (Utah State, Syracuse, Fresno, FIU, Ball State, BC,Liberty, Army) 4 - 6 wins
Elite Teams ( Michigan, NCState ) 1 win against an overrated NC State team.

Between 7 and 9 wins.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

A week away and still considering which way to lean. There are wins on the schedule if things come together but worried about the unsettled QB position and the turmoil on defense with the Spanos departure. The over is +130. Wins against Central, UMASS and anything out of the three pack of Liberty, Ball State and FIU would put it over. They have to go over the win total sometime don't they? Been under for four to five years straight. I know that I'm going to send it in on Utah State. Could get ugly early this weekend in Utah.

I like Mora a lot, but it is going to take time to wash all the Edsall off this team.

Under, with some competitive losses to set us up well for next season.

I can't bet on anything on my app when I'm out-of-state.

I can't bet on anything on my app when I'm out-of-state.

The app has to be registered in the particular state you are in. Otherwise, if you allow it to see your physical location and you are in a state they are registered in, you should be able to bet.

 

[Bmcmill33]

Isnt Sports Betting illegal in florida? Land of no laws yet, weed still illegal and cant bet on games

 

[huskysupporter]

It’s a tough call - only game that looks like a definite win is CCSU but I’ve learned over the last several years there are no definite wins for this program.

I’m going with the under but wouldn’t be surprised if they win 3 games.
