And I'm just jumping on the over here but I definitely think KY wins it and believe they'll cover with no problem. 10 points is a large window though and KY could always have a well fought game and just run out the clock being conservative up 8 with a minute left...

Seems if you're looking for a sure bet, this definitely isn't it when the other team can shoot lights out. Might not allow them to win it but they can at least be competitive.

  So who are the good guys?  Cornell?  I would love to see them take out KY.

That's what people don't seem to understand.  While Cornell is a good team, Kentucky is just too talented and will be playing with a higher sense of urgency. 

Game has all the makings of a Kentucky blow out imo, not to mention everyone will probably be on Cornell thinking the line is too high.

Game looks like another Tennessee-Ohio, which people also thought Ohio had a chance.

No way Cornell wins this game but the line is tight as a drum @ +9.

To me the key to the game will be which one of Cousins or Foote can stay out of foul trouble. Foote is a very crafty veteran and may have a few tricks for a youngster in a big game. Cousins is simply a monster if he plays within himself.

In the end I think Cornell will be exposed defensively.

The total @ 145 had some appeal to the over but I see it is steadily on the rise.

Cornell to me are a great team inside the Ivy league they can compete with a lot of other low flying division one schools, but everything else their doing now,is all a Las Vegas show.

I wont bet them to win or lose, I wont touch them because, I know Vegas, is tricking people and setting them up for the smash, I see it coming.I wont touch any games they playing in.

Wow GOOD vs EVIL, why does that statement really remind me of the OJ simpson trial. I bet the people out there that say good vs evil are the ones that were VERY HEATED when they announced the OJ verdict. Whites too mad and blacks too happy. and for those of you that don't know. Many blacks were only happy with the verdict not because a man got off for murder, but simply that's the type of verdict blacks have witness for many years. But it's 2010, and it's sad to see that the comment good vs evil. I guess all Ivy league graduates are saints with bright futures and all blacks have no hope unless they make the NBA or entertain.

Cornell is REALLY going to have to defend.

Their FG% defense is over 50% in the tournament.  They will have to slow things down and abandon the offensive boards.

1 bet and 1 bet only on this game...OVER 145 strong and I'll bet it strong up to 150.

Cornell and Wisky hit 156 and Wisky is very slow tempo

Cornell and Temple hit 143 and Temple is very slow tempo

UK and Wake hits 150

UK and ETSU hits 170

Cornell and UK will break 145 fairly easily I would think and be rested up on Thursday for this matchup.

temple and wisky 2 teams that cant score and have marginal nba players thats 1 thing but taking on uk who along with syracuse is the clear favorite for a championship thats something else.

foote has no advantage against cousins and neither does pg against wall. uk gets it done here by 10+

My heart tells me Cornell but Kentucky is the team of destiny!!!

The "Cinderella Story" has already been told in the name of Norther Iowa.  Like it or not Kentucky will roll on their way to a matchup versus Washington(a #11 seed).

I just can't decide if I should lock this game in today or see if if the line drops with all the love Cornell is getting.  Panties might drop but I don't think the line will.

I like everyone but KY fans would love to see Big Red advance but let's be realistic. Cornell played very well in the first 2 games of the tourney but had great match-ups in personel.

KY has alot of size down low and will make it very tough for Cornell to use their big. He will more than likely be in foul trouble most of the game.

Then as far as the guards match-up KY has size and quickness at around the perimeter. Bottom line, they will be able to close out on Cornell shooting 3's as well as score in transition with their speed on D

Sorry to say it but Kentucky wins by DD.

Careful with analogies/not specifically stating something in black-n-white because lately there have been some middle school dropouts wandering through the forum

.....And i'll take the playground black kids allll day.  Na but actually Cornell +9 is the play

With Kansas going down, the rest of the #1 seeds were on full alert and crushed the spreads over the weekend.  I would expect more of the same from the #1's later this week and would rather ride that bandwagon than Cornell's.
