The better posters seem to like Cle and under tho. I am uncertain. In college, I like St. Mary's -7.5 at San Diego. St. Mary's is a much better team with San Diego playing poorly recently. i really want to take Wisconsin +1 at Minnesota. They don't play much on the road and Minnesota is not good at home either. Wisconsin may be getting Jon Leuer back as well.

Yeah, I took a piece of Cleveland. Small bet on Georgetown (1st half), biggest bet is on The Citadel, even though I have no idea if that's even a school. :-P

lol one of the well-respected posters really likes The Citadel, I wonder where you got that from :D

lol, they're at home and undefeated in February. Not a table max bet, but, me and my buddies like it. You see anything online regarding the Minnesota-Wisconsin game (or the late Pac-10 games)? I think that Celtics-Lakers game might be competitive, too, esp with no Kobe.

line was -1 minnesota and it now a pickem. I think Wisconsin will win outright with Leuer back so no biggie for me. I'm not touching the Pac-10 tonight. I have the cavs and lakers in a small parlay for no real reason lol.

I went with wisconsin +1

as far as The Citadel, its close I think they are slight underdogs but when its close and u take home team its never really bad
and they have the best school name obv...seriously who gets a 'The' in their actual school name? the arrogance is awesome

no picks tenbagger? -_-

Damn, everyone on the wagering forums seem to be on Wisconsin, now. Has there been a huge shift in the line? All this anti-Gophers chatter kinda makes me want to jump in and grab a cheap win. Oh, well, still a few hours left...

only two nba games and I didn't see much of an edge there, the lines seem very well priced so I decided to take a pass for tonight.

Isn't minn a system 1 pick? Fwiw, I have no action an not looking to get down.

Wisc also appears to be one of the top public picks tonight on sbr (66%), S-Insights (77%), and Wagerline (70%). And according to kenpom, sagarin and a couple other publicly available power ratings wisc should be more than a 1 point fav even after HC adj.

wtf I might degen fade Wisc for teh lulz.

Yeah, too much action on Wisconsin, so, I passed. Hope the Badgers win, tho, because I know a lot of you guys have em.

Celtics +125 on the moneyline sure looks tempting. I think St. Mary's will win, too, but, something seems fishy about that 7 1/2 - 8 1/2 spread. Seems like another Vegas trap. :-P

Just bet the side doing the trapping.

lucklily i had by far my smallest bet on wisconsin...I never like those death close games

Dzoo is the man, tailed most of his bets tonight and went 7-0 in college (i know nothing about college bball)

+21 units wheee

7-0, that is so sick.

Very very nice work dzoo. Fingers crossed that rainkhan noted your post and got a parlay down.

lol i dotn do parlays anymore but dzoo thats very sick keep it going and ill tail eventually

Who you guys got today? Anyone like:

Wished I saw this in LP forum sooner. Have bet quite a bit in MSNL/HSNL sports betting section on 2p2. Will definitely be putting in my input ITT. Today my picks for today so far are:

Jazz ML -227 vs Golden State
Memphis ML or -5.5 vs Miami (No D Wade, pffffttt)

and like:

Cavs ML -201 at Charlotte

I think the Jazz have a strong starting 5 against Golden State who are lacking Corey Maggette and Monta Ellis. Cleveland is coming from a tough loss to Denver and will be hungry for a W on their first game on the road against Charlotte. I think with Jamison playing on the Cavs now, they have an added depth that matches up well against a good Charlotte team (when at home).


Lookout for the Nets 6th win tonight at home

hey newbornbaby glad u joined =)

I went 7/7 in my prop bets in Olympic hockey 2 nights ago so a little nervous for tonight haha

i took

Bulls-1
Utah -227

3 team Round Robin Parlay 2's x3
Denver -230
Cleveland -200
Orlando -275

this was night of the road teams which I hate picking them overly much. I stayed away from the college games since again all the road teams are slightly favoured (liek Wisconsin last night) so that home adv. makes them so hard to bet on imo
