Seems right
After the last time we played them it seems pretty high. I think this is more of a close game were we pull away for 10-15 pt. win. I could be wrong but not sure we are there yet as a team to have a sure double digit win even in the American.

We had something like an 18 point lead early in the 2nd half then stopped playing for a while. Tulane then scored 19 in a row before UConn decided to play again. If they play like they played in the 2nd half vs Houston I would take UConn -15 easily.

I'd take Tulane and the points. We typically let up on teams when he get a big lead. I'd guess we win by 10-12 points.

UConn -15: does this mean we win by less than 15 points?

It means UConn is favored to win by 15........

Have you ever thought of running a covert sports betting seminar to educate the general non gambling population on the finer points of wagering? Maybe include a field trip? You could recruit off the "Deep Web". Charge $299 a pop? Good stuff Jerry....good stuff! The community needs experts like you. Good luck brodie!

Best Always,
BDH ;)

If it said +15 that would mean we wouldn't be expected to win by 15, so 14 and under gets paid, correct?

...add 15 points to whatever Tulane gets tonight and if that gives them the win, then you win if you bet on them.
If you bet on UConn, they have to win by at least 16 for you to win.

If UConn wins by 15 it's a push and you get back the money you bet.

Think about it this way. +15 means the starting score in the betting world is 15-0

Weird play poker and blackjack and casinos, gambled on horses for many years. Never touch the conventional sports. As old as I am I have still have not figured this stuff out. Thanks.

Sadly I must say I will probably forget this info again next year.

Don't start...you'll quickly find out that Vegas knows more about sports than you could ever imagine. Thank you Steelers for kicking a field goal.
