Uconn -19.5 vs Villanova

[socal613ws]

Oof I expected a spread such as -10 to bet on Uconn, but this might be a lot. I think they make a close cover but 20 pt win is a lot.

I have full confidence in us winning, but if I had to wager, I'd take the points

Massey 70-60 UConn win probability 78%

At least Vegas is paying attention.

My spread is UCONN -20.0 !

It shows you how much respect the books have for UConn and they know the public likes to bet on UConn. I agree I think the line should be closer to 10 than 20. It would not surprise me if they won by 30 or by 2. If they play like they have the last 2 games, it will be closer to 30. Villanova has had 2 very tough games. They should be mentally and physically exhausted.

I think I will pass on this one. Sometimes the best bet to be made is no bet at all.

Not sure what sportsbook you were looking at, but Caesars has 15.5 and Draft Kings has 14.5.

ESPN has it at 15.5 UConn advantage. I’m align to that as well. I think our defense will shut them down and UConn has their swag back. Go Huskies!

15.5 seems about right. UConn defense we have seen the last two games combined with a much better flowing offense.

Nova has Siegrist. Others are not as reliable. UConn can place place 4 to 5 in double figures.

Go Huskies!!!

I don't care if they win by one or by twenty............. just win baby!!!!

I think UConn has 7 players that can post double figures. And I think 4 of those 7 have had 30 point (or very close to 30 point) games in the careers at UConn already.

I have 17.5, the line is all over the place.

I " bet" with myself. If the Huskies win, I win a celebratory reward of a Breyers Vanilla Ice Cream
float. If the Huskies lose, I get a consolation pacifier of a .... Breyers Vanilla Ice Cream float,
In my gambling den there are no losers!!

Not Vegas. It's the people placing the bets. Vegas is just trying to balance their books to maximize their vig.

Sad we were up 25... Oh well

yep I didin't take cause it's just too much. -10 I would have

 

[wingsfan055]

I stayed away from this line on a back-back-back. Game was over by the start of the 4th and the players just packed it in.

If you took the spread it looked like a good bet until midway through the game. Then, after five halves of all out basketball in three days, the team relaxed. Why not?
