And when did Toledo suck? Buffalo is not Duke They are Buffalo. May not even be the best team in MAC.

  • Rockets are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games.
  • Rockets are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
  • Rockets are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Friday games.

Id have to agree with Frank... There is nothing fishy about this line. Toledo plays well at home and Buffalos record is not really any different than theirs. This line seems somewhat appropriate. I still think Buffalo gets it done tonight. 

BOL

agreed. I think people will see Toledo lost by 30, think to themselves why is it low and people will get suckered into betting them. Also, the line on that game was -9.5. Based on this dudes thinking, buffalo woulda been a “trap” that game too. I personally LOVE buffalo here. The fact that everyone’s on Toledo is making me love it even more.

Absolutely nothing fishy here. Line is correct. Buffalo was -9.5 at home when they won by 30. That was after Toledo had lost to ball state at home and buffalo was on their “tear”. Wouldn’t that have been a fishy line? How about buffalo -8 last week against barely .500 Akron. Be very weary betting game because line is fishy. I’ve been burned on that way too many times this year ie Texas against ksu, Marquette at butler, I can keep going on. Whatever you take gl. I’m rolling bewitch buffalo

Actually I am Big on Toledo +4 and ML +180. Maybe too big. Will look at Live betting if Toledo jumps out to even my position.  Remember Buffalo'' best player had a career night, literally in the first game.

Lines aren't made based on head-to-head results. Never have been and never will be. It's strictly based on power ratings. This is one of the most frequent misconceptions I see on this forum.

Buffalo can win (again) by 30 tonight, and if they played next week, the line wouldn't change.

This is one of those days where I don't feel like handicapping nothing so I tailed blind. If Toledo don't hit I'll be back. And it will be no more Mr. nice guy.

I'll risk taking the Home dog & the +pts here in a closer game this time around.
I don't see Toledo turning the ball over 17 times again. So, I say no blowout, but just lose by 4. :-)

I love it when a plan comes together new_money_eyes
