-Nova has a substantial advantage at the guard position

-Villanova is 4-1 against solid competition

Come on JT you should know as well as anyone that this trend has worked well year in and year out. People are still going to be Nova seeing 3 points. There really is not that many people posting plays on this game either on the forum. I have only seen maybe 10 people post LOU as a play.

I wouldnt want to be on Lans side either when it comes to hoops. Really shocked your going to play ML on this game to with almost 90% on it.

 

Either way good luck. Always have respect.

You need to look again, because I read at least 20 posts picking Louisville, I have seen 3 people (excluding myself) picking Nova.

This trend works when no one is giving the home team a shot, much like Tennessee yesterday.

This trend is not as nearly successful when everyone is picking the home team to continue the trend.

covers posters hardly represent the public.

many sharp posters here and a lot of uncforever tailers.  that is why you see so many on it.  doesn't mean it is a public play.

You're crazy if you think those are two public plays.

Sad to say, but that is EXACTLY what covers is...the public

are there a few great cappers in here...of course...but for the most part covers is an exact representation of the betting public.

90 percent of covers is on Louisville because UNCforever is big on Louisville.  It was the same thing on Saturday with Wisconsin.  Not saying that any one individual likes to copy plays, so I hope nobody get their panties in a bunch, but when UNC posts a 20 unit play, you can bet that lots of cappers are going to have it that day.  Go Cards!

according to one website, 68% on Vill and 32% on Louisville...take that for what it is worth for the guys trying to guess what the public is on.

Tressel - I hate your sweatervest by the way!  GO VOLS!

I don't trust any numbers on any sites in regards to whom the public is on.

What I do trust is time and hard work, which is what I do when reading every post in the college basketball forum before determining where public money is.

Sweatervest - I'm not saying put your stock in those sites by any means.  And I agree that looking through the post on here Louisville is getting hammered.  I leaned UofL myself this morning, but not going to play it because covers posters love it.  There is nothing wrong with the way you read who people are playing and play the opposite, it works well.

Okay I guess yesterday when I read you're thread about Kansas and "Too good to be True" that was written by someone else and not you. You can't have it both ways! If you took Kansas then you can take Nova. If you took Tenn then you should be on Lou.  Exact same situation!

I think this game can go either way but when big time program that are unranked play top 10 teams, they tend to play extremely well. With that being said, when smaller programs like Rhode Island get a top 25 team like saturday when they played temple, u have to cap the game alittle better and not just rely on the trend. Louisville will be ready to play tonite. Should win by 6 to 8 pts. Either way enjoy your threads. Keep up the good work
