UConn -31.5

[SirHypeAlot]

Someone tell me not to slam this. With Brimah being out and our recent display of playing down to competition this just doesn't seem like a favorable line.

I saw -33 if I didn't have the rule never bet on UConn I would 100% destroy that. We don't play defense....

 

[Bryan Lord]

Haha if only I was a betting man... This line is absurd.

I expect a lot more effort on the defensive end but this does seem very high...with that said UMass Lowell game is probably an outlier. We have easily handled all of the other Kenpom 200+ teams and CCSU is the worst of them all.

Maine by 44
UNH by 19
Forman by 25
Sacred Heart by 33

You have to factor in we did that with Amida.... we don't have Amida and as DHam said they need him on defense.

This thread all but assures we will cover.

We don't play defense....

Ignoring what our defense will look like going forward because this statement seems to cover the time before he got hurt... we have so far played very good defense, ranking as #30 on kenpom. Not sure where this "no defense" meme is coming from.

And yes, that ranking includes the UMass Lowell game.

After looking at this closer I'm betting us to cover -31.5

I have the over. It's the only way to sit through it.

Never bet on your team, they'll only disappoint you, even in a win!

vegas missed this game by 15 points....

vegas missed this game by 15 points....

They put out a line of 33 that dropped to 31.5 because people were taking CCSU, and then UConn covered. Vegas didn't miss anything.

A very brave post when the score was 6-4 six minutes into the game.

Not as much as memories do.

The game started at 12:30 and I posted that at 12:15?

I banged it for a couple hundred bucks at -31....truth be told, I didn't even know the game was on this afternoon

 

[upstater]

Hah, well, I thought it started at 12. I even watched the game. Oh well.

 

[upstater]

Huh? The score was 6-4, am I wrong? 5+ minutes into the game.

if this is true, they 'missed' (paid for) the action of everyone who decided to bet uconn once it dropped . i understand what you think your point is, but vegas doesnt put out lines they think are FIFTEEN points off in a throwaway dec 23 noon game just to trap casual bettors or get equal action
