Excellent observation.  Another question here is why was the line so low to begin with?

Wisconsin -6.5 opening line...I was thinking much more like -9.5 or -10.  The books normally don't adjust that much for one player possibly being out.


PM for the skinny on the down low

Our starting guard has been out forever, non factor for the line and the game. Koenig is a stud for a backup!

Ok, that doesn't explain the line being so low.

Don't you think that opening line should have been higher?

Also, Ryan Harrow G for Georgia St (19.4ppg) has a hamstring injury but will be playing today.  Don't know how bad that hammy is but they are like a time bomb...never know when they will tweak just right and he will be gone from the game.

I think if the line would have been higher the public would have loaded on MSU. Izzo is one of a few coaches that it's hard to bet against in March.

 I got to say that I did think this line would be around 4..maybe I am just buying into the izzo cool aid and wisky a public darling right now...no way I would cap this at 10 or 11...  so...as u can see im probably on mich st side and will take all I can get...

Line is moving your way then Ryno.  Personally, I stopped drinking the Izzo purple a few years ago.  Something changed with him, not sure what.  Did he get a divorce or have some other big life changing event?

I just can't take him in this spot so good luck.

They played 2 weeks ago in Wisconsin, and the line was -9.  Why would Wisc be a bigger favorite in championship game on a neutral court?

In that game, Michigan St. lost by 7 but it was only that close because they shot 52.9% from 3 point land going 9 of 17. Wisconsin dominated the boards 35/24 and the paint.

Sparty should have lost that by 16 to 20, imo.

LA Clippers will win (may even cover). Add them to any of the parlay you guys decide to do.

Looking at few more NBA games. Let's roll.

Ryno: Is this good enough for NOT one liner.
