UConn v Creighton - Make your bets.

-6.5 I am taking Creighton. -2.5 UConn.

Usually I have a good feel how to bet UConn. But not this year. I would avoid this game. I need more datapoints to get a feel for how to bet this team.

Feels like a fishy line TBH. That's a lot of points yet again for a team that hasn't been able to beat worse teams by that, and we're on the road.

Nah. Iā€™m far more mellow now. I havenā€™t been physically threatened in a DM in over a decade.

Because you don't matter anymore?

(Honestly, I'd love to hear the backstory of who threatened you and why? That has to be hysterical.)

LOL. Like anyone here matters. Good one.

One of them was a Yarder. Not sure if theyā€™re still around at all or not but over a period of time it got more and more personal then went to DMs. It was keyboard muscles more than anything but we had met in person before so we knew who each other were.

Another one was a fan from the PC board. This was a long time ago. Like early 2000ā€™s. That was a direct physical threat that sounded a little mental and I actually had to report. It was more than ā€œIā€™m gonna kick your ___ if I ever see youā€ type stuff.

You don't believe in the mojo, therefore nothing you do impacts the mojo. That's Mojo Rule 1.

I think it's hysterical that a PC fan threatened you. I mean you did go to their board and mock them unrelentingly. It's kind of proof of just how much you were in their heads. UConn Twitter has kind of taken over for you. They are unrelenting about going after PC fans.

I actually got a threatening DM one time on the BY as well. Believe it or not it was over on the woman's board. Somebody said something supporting Pat Summit and I said something like "How do we know you aren't Pat Summit?" He called me out in an DM and wanted to fight me at halftime of a woman's game. I laughed at him and said "What are you a fifth grader? You're actually calling me out at recess?" We did end up meeting at halftime at a woman's game and laughed about it.

It cracks me up how angry some people get about the BY. There was one poster on the men's board who actually trashed his own apartment over stuff that was being said on The Boneyard.

We have Conference Realignment Rule 1, and Mojo Rule 1. Here's Boneyard Rule 1 - "If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong."
 
UConn wins but doesn't cover the spread.

Same ole, same ole for UConn in road BE games. Get the win, don't cover the spread.

Inconsistent FT shooting in last 90 seconds let's Creighton creep closer with a back door beat.

78-74.
 
Over the last 30 years or so of these various Yard boards, Iā€™ve probably met 120-130 people in person. Including myself, youā€™ll never see a bigger group of fatso nerd social misfits. I have never met a single person that I would ever be physically intimidated by.

I wonā€™t be at that game but I have Gampel tickets and Iā€™ll be at the BET. Any time you want. I can tell you some stories from the past for sure.

Odds are itā€™s the guy whoā€™s gotten into 75 fights or whatever it was.

Edit- @uconnblueinky ?
 
Honestly, I'm eyeing Creighton +300. I don't expect to win and certainly don't want to win that bet, but I feel like we're not 75% likely to win this game.

I'll probably also live-bet Creighton +11.5 or so if we get an early lead.

I don't like betting lines around 7.5 because it's very easy for a 2-point game to become 8 in the final minute.
 
Another combined big game by our centers. No Kalk patrolling the middle wreaking havoc.
Pound it inside along with taking advantage of taking it to the rim when penetration and lanes open up.
 
Another win, no cover. Apparently many out of state degenerates on these threads able to bet. Us in CT a no go, unless you drive over the border with the FanDuel/DK apps.

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 ā€œedgeā€.

Totally agree with this. I didnā€™t make a ā€œbetā€ because I have absolutely no idea of what this team is going to do. No idea. But Deep, this is a great thread idea and you should post it for every game. YOU PICK THE SCORE . Make people declare. Declare. Me, I have no idea, so Iā€™m not going to participate because I admit, I just donā€™t know. Tonight, Creighton, surprised me. This is what I think the team is capable every night, but we havenā€™t been seeing it. But this is what this team is capable of. Post this every game please. Letā€™s see if anyone had any idea.

43% from the FT line. It's going to cost them.

O.K. just had to start something for the naysayers to complain about. Lol

Actually, not getting to the free throw line is the team's lone unaddressed vulnerability after Saturday night's game.
