So im going all in Moneyline for Richmond +325 at TCU.
Richmonds guard play is superb starting with the point guard Shawn'dre Jones who reminds me of CJ McCollum. They also have a senior in T.J Cline who is 6'9 and can pass the ball great from the post to shooters Jones, Buckingham, Fore,etc. They have a good offense and will get after it at Texas Christian.
Who needs the points. Taking Spiders ML. Very underated team.

Line just bounced from 7.5 to 8 with an opening line of 8 interesting yet the ml only fluctuated 5 dollars for that half point from plus 305 to plus 310 at my book Ive been waiting for this one i think it will be close game but TCu Wins but doesnt cover just based off what the line movement has showed me and how the teams play

Line and movement are the two most overused, overrated and no-substance having words consistently used in the history of Covers.com.
I've been betting regularly for well over a decade and line movement has and will never play a role in my picks. Why should it? So Floyd Mayweather drops 100K on a college basketball game and the line swings heavy, and naturally Floyd is the "sharp?" Situations happen like this all of the time. "Sharps" can be a herd of public buffaloes with a giant lion costume on.
I know that wasn't you that talked about this, OP, but it drives me nuts to see it in a reply.
You are spot on with Richmond IMO BUT with the pts. Being very familiar with Jamie Dixon and his style, he scares me in a tournament that is NOT the NCAA. It's all about practice right now and not so much the game itself (reference his pressor right before they played Wazzau in CBI finals in '12.) Practice-heavy, no real pressure = a JD team close to its best.
So with that I just think in this situation you are going to see TCU close to its best with half court defense. Defense-first, defense-middle, defense last type coach. If this is the case, his players are consistently some of the best in 3 pt fg % defense, and that could cause a problem with Mooney's agenda. You could see them defending the 3 better and better as each game goes by. They (Richmond) still have other answers like Kline in the post, and a couple of slashers that can handle themselves on-ball. Surely they won't limit themselves to the behind the arc, but will they get as good of looks as they've had the last two games? I'm doubting that for 1H anyway.
I see Spiders down a lot early, but resilient with comeback. I got TCU just finishing them in a 4-6 pt finish between two teams that are simply playing their best basketball.
1H TCU for me. Full game Richmond. Just some bums rotten opinion though. Go with your visceral feeling.
GL!!!!!!!
