ISU -1 (1/16/16)

[LakeLife]

I know must people like money... Take ISU -1... If they lose and you bet on it... I'll buy the drinks in the metro tomorrow night! We don't lose tomorrow!!!

Go Clones!

I'd be more likely to bet on the KSU moneyline so I at least get some money if things go completely off the rails. Hope you're right though...

Weber found himself a couple freshman guards that can score. Hopefully our guys feel like they're worthy of guarding.

I'm saying a prayer to the basketball God tonight. Lord knows we need this win to get back on track.

I do what you suggest frequently when ISU is favored in games that matter, but I think I'm going to do a WVU + ISU tease today. Will have to win both of ISU +3 and WVU + 10. I have to think that the ISU line is pretty depressed after their last several performances. I believe in mean reversion so hoping ISU can surprise to the upside.

WVU +6 at home against OU seems like a strange line. I'd imagine OU won't struggle against their press, and that is likely what the line reflects, but still!

Note: I am not a winning sports better, so this is not advice. You'd probably be better off doing the opposite of whatever I do.

I don't usually bet Clones games but I took this line today.

The game is at OU.

Ha, you are right, that explains it. I swear they said the game was at WVU when I was watching WVU vs KU on Tuesday. Oh well.

Yep. Apparently other schools can find high school kids that can play. We can't for some reason.

Monte, Matt, Naz, George, etc might disagree.

The weird thing is that kenpom has KSU winning by two... and even after the Hallice Cooke news, I see that ISU has jumped to -1.5. I would have expected a lot of big sharp money to come in on KSU, especially at the end, but it hasn't happened yet.

Weber has a pretty good track record of that.
