UConn +6 vs Nova

[August_West]

Cheesesteak is second best sandwich in Philly.

Yup. But you get the best cheese steak and the best roast pork at same place

Is it really only +6? I think it actually dropped to +5? Serious?

Caesars Sportsbook had us at +4.5 this morning. Getting better . . . FWIW.

EDIT: Just before game time, it's down to +4.

I would bet Nova moneyline, but I am not touching the spread with a 10-foot pole.

We're going to be down 10-12 in the first half and make a run in the second.

Whether Nova turns us back and wins comfortably or it comes down to the wire but fall short I have no idea.

Agreed. My daughter got the cheese steak and we traded a few bites of each other's sandwich. Perfect.

Saying they clearly looked past them is a stretch too. They aren't winless Georgetown.

Which is why I didn’t say that. They definitely didn’t circle these guys on the calendar

Seems fair

I like that line for a UConn bet.

Yeah down to +5 on Draftkings. Took Nova. They're going to be coming out firing after losing and it's a big home game for their crowd.

 

[Hurleyman216]

Let’s go out and punch them in the mouth and not look back. If Gillespie starts backing down Cole let’s put AJax on him and shut that $#%t down. Let’s GO!

Still like uconn plus points. We haven’t not lost close this year. We don’t pull them all out certainly but when we go down we go down close.

 

[XLCenterFan]

After last weekend I am just anxiously waiting your SB pick.

Cincy is in over their heads and the magic ends. Rams were built for this. I got LA. Hopefully at 3.5 and not 4.5.

I can’t believe it. I though Since we looked so bad against creighton and havent shot the ball well lately and plus nova lost last time out it was gonna be at least -8 or -9. Ill never bet against my squad but damn that’s tempting

It's our toughest game of the year by predictive metrics (tougher than neutral Auburn) and I don't think our defensive system is particularly good against these types of offenses. And I don't like taking short underdogs + points, FTs push it out of range very often, so even if its a 1-possession game all game still might lose the bet.

Just found out that Justin Moore isn't going to start, so definitely more up in the air now.

 

[jibsey]

The refs are big in this one with foul and no foul calls.

Worked out getting only 3.5 for seton hall

 

[HooperScooper]

On ESPN Game Day LaPhonso Ellis and Seth Greenberg just picked UConn and Jay Bilas picked Villanova. We're dooooomed!

Oh God, now we’ll say this win doesn’t count.

 

[back2BE4us]

Without Moore this line should definitely be closer to +3.5-4. Only two times I bet UConn they lost (Binghamton spread and Prov game ML live) but I really like it if UConn is +3.5.

Just checked and live line has UConn +3.5...that's a good number. Might wait for Nova to get up early and then hit it at like 5.5.

Have you guys played anyone at full strength?

I think it's because Justin Moore is out. Looks like they don't need him.

Yet.

Well this has gone exactly as I expected so far.

This was the closest thing to a sure bet that I’ve seen this year.

Creighton +10.5 was a gimme.

Would’ve been a good bet, as it turns out
