UConn v Creighton - Make your bets.

[Deepster]

We talked this week about you guys feeling more confident betting on UConn because you have a better "feel" for them over other teams.

The line right now is UConn -6.5.

If you think you have an edge because you follow the team, what's your bet?

Looks like the soft line right now is UConn -2.5.

UConn wins by 4. They'll needle another one out.

I'd bet on UConn the day of the game if the UCONN!!! chant thread goes off without a hitch.

If anyone messes it up, the loss is on them. I will no longer edit any replies.

 

[jibsey]

Do we have Mullins?

Bet right before tip as it all depends on the Haiku.

 

[Palatine]

UConn wins by 1.5 because they never cover.

100% I'm surprised @Deepster even posted this without waiting for the Haiku to come out.

It's obvious I'm going to trash the stupid haiku thread until we lose. Which, I believe is now at 16 wins and counting. 😎

Creighton always seems to shoot 40+% from 3 in their own building against us. That being said, they clearly aren't the same team this year and just got boat raced by a garbage Marquette team.

So I have no idea what's going to happen.

I thought I saw -6.5

Because I know the team, I know that this is about the time when they start to pull out of their funk. They will probably be inconsistent over the next week or two. Beating the spread is a coin flip during this time. Then maybe another week to stabilize where standard logic applies. In other words, only bet a bad spread. After that, I expect them to beat the spread more often than not, to the end.

I think they cover…but I have an edge by knowing my team such that I don’t have enough confidence in them to cover.

That being said, I will still bet them to cover.

If I’m UConn I press the 3pt line. They don’t have much off the dribble or down low. Leave Tarris down there and play out. You don’t want to lose at the 3 pt line.

UConn opens at -6.5. I figured it would be in that range based on the ESPN Analytics giving UConn a 72.1% chance of winning.

So are you betting on Creighton getting 6.5 points or the Huskies to cover?

UConn embracing its position while looking for its finishing gear, but also cognizant of what must be found

Dan Hurley, shown here leaving floor after UConn’s win at Creighton last season, leads Huskies back into Omaha Saturday at 20-1 and No. 2 in...

Braylon did travel with the team, but no word on availability just yet.

 

[IndyLives]

Must win game for UConn on Saturday. Need to keep the 1-game lead over Pitino and St. Johns.

So far, in a thread asking for your wager on the spread, only 2 people have actually kind of made a pick.

So much for that “edge”.

Well your initial line wasn't the line. Huge difference between -2.5 and -6.5.

I don't bet but if forced, I go money line on UConn and Creighton with the points.

But, if I posted -2.5 and you didn’t take UConn to cover then it went to actually be -6.5? How much edge do you have in making bets here?

 

[50cPitchers]

Impossible to lay pre-game points with current iteration of this team. Be greedy and bet a better line when we're inevitably down mid-game

 

[Leebo]

My bet is that I'll want to mute the audio at some point during the broadcast.

If the edge is thinking UConn sucks right now, then your alt line removed the edge.

Remember when Deepster wasn't an ass hat? Well, me neither, but he used to be far less of one.

 

[navery12]

95% chance he's going for 15 and 10 tonight in a breakout game

Nah. I’m far more mellow now. I haven’t been physically threatened in a DM in over a decade.
