Based on what I've seen the last two Hawaii home games, I think I like splitting the bet on the 1H line with Clemson - Hawaii has started poorly and finished strong. That could have been because teams were fading with the later time zone difficulties, which won't be the case here.

I know this will sound derogetory, however, I do not mean it in that way. I am merely trying to understand and that is why I ask. How can you have any team that is your 'home' team or your 'favorite' or any team that you are emotionally tied to in any way shape or form and still be successfull at gambling. That emotional tie would skew my viewpoint immensly when wagering in that sport

Added UCLA +1700 to win the Pac-12. Those are just stupid odds. Worth a few bucks to say the least.
A few thoughts...
Clemson -4.5 @ Hawaii (1 unit) Two issues for Hawaii in this game. The first is the letdown from the Xavier game the other night. Late game, big celebration, partying on the island, and the first win over a ranked team since 2005. In a way, I think Hawaii shot its proverbial load and will not come with anywhere near the same intensity for this game against Clemson. It's also an 11:30 A.M. tip on Christmas morning, meaning the crowd will be sparse and lacking energy, unlike Friday night. Another issue is Clemson's grinding style of play. Hawaii is at its best in the open court with Shaquille Stokes and Miah Ostrowski creating opportunities in transition. That won't be happening today, and Clemson's defense will be the best Hawaii has seen yet this year. There's more at stake in this game for Clemson, and if you abide by the 5-20-5 theory, you will agree that Hawaii's performance Friday night against Xavier was a clear example of a team playing way above its typical capabilities.

Isn't that why the rule of thumb is to not bet for/against your team. I was just stating my opinion on the game and what I want to happen.

Extremely experienced team hell-bent on putting itself in position to compete for an at-large bid. More disciplined, more balanced, and more battle-tested than KState. Wildcats commit too many fouls and shoot free throws poorly. LBSU's schedule to this point is incredible and I think they ultimately pull away late thanks to their experience and composure in big games.

I don't bet much NBA, but really like Mark Jackson's new attitude and much slower pace. Also don't think the Clippers will have much of a rhythm offensively

Also on Clippers-Warriors Under 208.5...

REASON FOR PICK: This is an "ESPN PRIME-TARGET" on Kansas State.
The 49ers are 7-5 overall (just 1-5 on the road), and are coming off a 64-43 win at Auburn on December 23rd.
Larry Anderson had 16 points; Eugene Phelps and Casper Ware chipped in 13 each.
T.J. Robinson grabbed nine boards.
Note though that LBSU is just 18-20 ATS its last 38 when playing the roll of favorite.
The Wildcats are 9-1 and are coming off a 78-70 win over UTEP on December 23rd, part of the Diamond Head Classic.
Angel Rodriguez had 16-points; Jamar Samuels chipped in 10 points and 12 boards.
Note that K-State is 6-5 ATS in its last 11 non-conference games.
This is the championship game of this tournament.
K-State enjoys significant matchup advantages (note that it held a 39-21 rebounding advantage, including 18-6 on the offensive end vs. UTEP last time out).
K-State has four players averaging in double figures; LBSU has three in double figures.
There are enough factors working for the Wildcats to warrant a play of this size!
This is what a friend of mine says, but I don't trust him cause he's fading

As I stated, it probably was going to sound bad asking that question, however, that was not my intent so I apologize if that is how it was perceived. It goes a lot further than 'not betting your team'. It also you means that you can not bet on any team in the Big 12 because they are battling your team for a position in the Conference. It also means that you can not bet on any team that has or will play K St because (potentially) at a sub conscious level they are the enemy. It means that you could be emotionally swayed against a team that beat K St this year, last year, the year before. The list goes on and on of potential emotional pitfalls that could be in your path. If you can be successful at gambling and still have a favorite team then my hats off to you. I stopped having a favorite team/city 20 years ago

Yeah to be brutally honest, a lot of that info is meaningless to me. He really doesn't know much of anything about college basketball If he thinks LBSU's 5 road losses are a negative. San Diego State, Montana, Louisville, North Carolina, Kansas. Wow. LBSU is also THE most experienced team in the country. Why does KState's rebounding against UTEP matter? Completely different style of play tonight.
