UCONN -5.5

[UConnSwag11]

I didn’t get to watch yesterday or this season so not sure what to think about the game

-5.5 is a scary number.

Hurley proved last year and so far this year that he can’t win close games.

He didn't have to when it mattered most last year.

I guess I should have added this to my post

My sarcasm apparently not thick enough (or is it too thick?)….

Lay it

Nah … you were fine. Only Travelman32 and Drax the Destroyer missed the sarcasm.

How many points us Castle worth? Would we favored by 8 with him ?

I would think 3-4 points.

IIRC a Castle should be worth a bishop and two pawns.

Bet 1,000,000 units on UConn -5.5. Tease the line up to -9.5 if you’re a man!

Going to be interesting to see DC go against a big with skill. It's a chance to evaluate if he can carry the mail.

KenPom has us by 7, Torvik only by 4. Pretty large discrepancy. Vegas just bridging the 2.

Clingan just needs to act big and not foul. Not a fan of Shedrick. Been watching him for years at Virginia and he doesn't like size. Any coherent defense and he doesn't know what to do. That was the best game of his life yesterday.

It’s November 20. Not enough data yet to be reducing standard deviations among the various computer models.

It’s not listed on FanDuel yet and I see there’s no line on ESPN??

Tell that to Vegas.

It’s hammer time. I was NOT impressed with Texas. Stayed for the whole game last night. They barely snuck out of there with a win and the kid bailed his team and coach out with that shot at the buzzer.

 

[Deepster]

Tough line. Should be a good game. I’ll ride the streak of non-conference double digit wins here and factor in our familiarity with MSG as the swing and lay the 5.5.

Deepster 2023 ATS = 3-0

Stinks, I don't get ESPNU, will have to watch replay

I don't think he's 100% yet so I'll hold off on a major eval but if he converts some bunnies and grabs rebounds without silly fouls it will be a good day. Our advantage is our guard play to facilitate open looks. We just have to knock them down.

Why do you post these made up scores every time?

 

[JonnyRI]

Karaban Newton and Ball all shot poorly yesterday from deep despite just about every shot they took being a solid open look that felt great watching live. Reversion to mean we win by 26 yesterday. They were 4-15 in total.

Makes me feel much better saying we cover the 5.5 and even keep the double digit OOC streak alive.
