Per FanDuel higher than Kenpom which has it at 10 have to think Hurley's GOT tweet is the culprit here
Seems about right to me, we're going to kick their arses.That is way, way, way too high.
Yes, we could win by 20. Yes, we've taken care of business -- home and road -- against this kind of middle-of-the-pack caliber of BE team. But this is a Nova team fighting for its life, who have won 3 in a row, and whose last truly bad loss (and only loss by 14 or more) was a month ago.
I could buy a line of -9 or so, but -13.5 is a ton.
Edit, to elaborate on this, Nova's last 7 games are:
- Loss by 7 at Butler
- Loss by 5 vs. Marquette
- Win by 18 vs. PC
- Loss by 3 at Xavier
- Win by 26 vs. SH
- Win by 16 at GT
- Win by 10 vs. Butler
Yes, they haven't beaten any non-scrub teams on the road and they haven't beaten a truly elite team anywhere since, arguably, Creighton, a few months ago (who were not playing well at the time), but they have been competitive in these games.
UConn coming off a 19pt loss, RIPs jersey getting retired, 8pm tip at Gampel the place is going to be on fire!! Dan Hurley vs Kyle Neptune. Come on! Give me the Huskies!!That is way, way, way too high.

I hope you're right that we win in a blowout, but I think it's much more likely this game is played in the 6-12 point range, they end up fouling at the end, and we win by 10.UConn coming off a 19pt loss, RIPs jersey getting retired, 8pm tip at Gampel the place is going to be on fire!!

You conveniently chose a 7 game run because if you picked 8 you’d have to include a 20 point loss @ St John’sThat is way, way, way too high.

Game day at UConn after bad loss. It should be a blowout. Don’t let hausen shoot, game overWe need to stomp this team like we did Marquette. Superior effort should be on display. Time to right the ship.
I don't think it's high enough.That is way, way, way too high.

Houstons gonna lose to Baylor tomm and we will be 2 at worstReally need to thump Nova to prevent dropping too far in the rankings. Guessing we'll be #3 in the next poll behind Purdue and Houston. I really impressive win and maybe we only drop to #2.
JSTEW helps with the “sweat free” cover!I like the o131.5 total points much more than the -13.5 line
Nice suckout, but dear God, don't use a bonus bet at -110 odds. That hurts my brain.JSTEW helps with the “sweat free” cover!

It was a “bonus bet” I got back from a sweat-free same-game parlay that didn’t come in. Goal is to turn it back into the $5 I lost on the parlay. A -110 bet is about as good as it gets to convert itNice suckout, but dear God, don't use a bonus bet at -110 odds. That hurts my brain.
I agree with this, you don’t just throw it on some crazy parlay like so many people who wager. The bet really isn’t free, it’s a refund and then you don’t even get the original wager back if you win.It was a “bonus bet” I got back from a sweat-free same-game parlay that didn’t come in.

It's not a philosophical "might as well put it on a longshot" view, it's just math.It was a “bonus bet” I got back from a sweat-free same-game parlay that didn’t come in. Goal is to turn it back into the $5 I lost on the parlay. A -110 bet is about as good as it gets to convert it
You've already lost the original bet! It's a sunk cost.I agree with this, you don’t just throw it on some crazy parlay like so many people who wager. The bet really isn’t free, it’s a refund and then you don’t even get the original wager back if you win.
