We are favored by 11.5? Is that a joke? I thought it would be like 4 after these last 2 performances

Incredible to say but this is a must win game. We lose to Tulane at home and we might as well disband the program until next fall.

Line is factoring the dozens of screaming fans. If you ever complain about the bleachers at Gampel here’s your chance at having a row of seat backs to yourself.

Anyone know the record low for attendance at a Gampel conference game? I assume it was during a big snow storm.

LOL. That line is crazy as hell.

Dirty water drowns the blind pups, 71-58.

There was a game last year when there was some snow and they opened up the bottom sections at Gampel for anyone in attendance to move down. I forget the opponent.

About 10 years ago there was also a game at Gampel on a snowy night. I think it was a big game vs. Pitt if I'm correct. It was the only time my father didn't use his season tix.

There was 5,505 at Gampel to watch the UMass-Lowell game last year.
I know this is non-conference.

That game was also played at 7pm on weekday, with students on campus.

The 9pm tip, couple with students on break, is what will limit this crowd from reaching that number, or even the number in attendance that we saw versus St Joes.

There were 5,065 at Gampel vs. UCF during the 2017-18 season. This was on Wed., Jan 10, and may have been that snowy night when they opened up the lower seats.

I took advantage of the super cheap courtside seats so I'll try to make up for a small crowd by being extra psycho on the court if they start sucking....lol

We played Tulane prime time Saturday night the Miller/Gibbs/DHam year that was close to a sellout and it was actually a very exciting game. I think we needed a late run to win.

Based on matchups, Carlton should be a factor tonight. He will outweigh his defender by 40+ pounds.

This is how Vegas makes money. Set a line that looks way too high following your worst two games of the season (which also happen to be your first two road games) and bait a self-loathing fan base into giving the 11.5 against an over-matched opponent. I'm sure the same thing will happen in reverse on Sunday.

I'm not making any predictions, but I will say that if they don't win tonight it may be time to panic a bit. I don't want to hear about the losing habits of the upperclassmen because this game is winnable with the freshman alone.

I’ve been in panic mode. How the heck are we even favored? Glad I don’t bet!

That is one of the more insane lines I've ever seen given the recent play of both sides.

I can't believe the line hasn't moved since it opened. Either no one's betting it, or there's equal money on both sides.

I’m no expert when it comes to gambling but doesn’t this mean Vegas wants you to bet Tulane??? Maybe they know something
