Plus 21.5. Looks like easy money. What say you?

Everyone knows we can hope for an upset but UCONN. is in year gear one of rebuilding. As fans we hope for a miracle upset but our brains say that a respetjcle game is what we get.

They are big boys. Going to be a test.
 
My thoughts. And I'm on UConn +22.5

At our tailgate last weekend, we were trying to predict the spread for this game. No one said anything above 20...a lot of predictions in the teens. I said if it's above 20, I'm jumping on it right away.

Vegas still thinks we are the UConn of 2018, 2019, 2021, and I'm guessing Syracuse does too. We are not a great team, but we are better than those teams. Better coached, better players, and more heart.

We are home, and it should be the highest attended home game in years. Saturday, night, perfect weather, off of a win and an inspiring road opener, and a familiar, semi-local opponent.

Our run game. The kid can run. Slow it down, move the chains.

Syracuse is feeling themselves after stomping Louisville. That, combined with the fact that they are looking past us, is good for us.

The hoops team will be in the building. Good juju abound, and no one wants to get buried with other UConn athletes in the house.
 
I just thought that we competed too well against Utah St..To think that we’ll get steamrolled by the 60th best team in the country is a little over the top.

Except for a horrendous PI call we probably win. What would everyone say if we had
Beaten them?

Take the points.
 
I didn’t think I would Be annoyed, but I am annoyed that I can’t bet this game in state with my normal apps.
 
When is the last time we covered 3x in a row? I'm too lazy to look. A stat last week showed that the last time we covered 2 in a row to start a season was 2012 (where we did cover 3x)...the cover last week was kind of a fluke with the late Rosa TD where we could've taken a knee (up for debate). It feels like we've started to turn the corner - I'm just not sure about this one. Pass.

no Luck for me, I was -17

DraftKings and FanDuel apps. I don’t want Vinny at the bar to take my money.
You don't have to settle with Vinny until after Monday night game
In CT we are not allowed to use those apps to bet on UConn games. Therefore, we all need a Vinny to bet the Huskies. And my Vinny settles up twice a year - before and after NFL season.
 
I’m watching Louisville UCF. Louisville lost. Says nothing about Cuse.

Just goes to show that UConn not Louisville should have gotten into ACC a dozen years ago. Maybe Louisville will jump ship to B12 somehow and UConn will soon get into the ACC
It would be financially extremely difficult for Louisville to leave the ACC until the GOR is over in 2036.
 
It's up to 24 and the u/o is now 49.5 The money is going on Syracuse and the over. But I'm thinking we can at least stay with them

I was only able to get 23.5, but I’ll keep watching

I guess there's a reason sports books are profitable.
They don't just try to balance the bets, they try to entice you to bet the wrong way. Look at the spread in our D-1 games: +21.5 and +27.5. The .5 in each case was an enticement to bet on the loser.
