Didnt realize how close this still was.

Obviously Evansville will drop their game... (though here's to wishing they win!) but with a BU and InSU win... we're in sole posession of third, right? Nice. If Evansville somehow squeaks it out... one game out of 2nd? Even better. GO EVANSVILLE!

Even though a win and a CU loss puts us alone in 3rd, I think we want Indy St to lose and start solidifying their spot on Thursday. Maybe I am wrong on this one, but I think CU has enough losses left in them without dropping tonight's game to still give us a shot at 3rd.
 
I would be surprised if Evansville didn't at least cover the 10 1/2 points at home. They only lost by 4 to Butler at home, and by 8 to Creighton.
But if Marty keeps running his offense mostly around Colt Ryan, they could get blown out.

Cool. Wow. Well, we'll see where the late money goes. I love the Braves tonight, and I haven't said that often this year, especially at home.

FWIW, I like the Illini and the points tonight too. Don't think they'll win, but they'll cover.

I am treading very lightly with Bradley. Not great home value this season, and the smack down at ISU is hard to forget. Also, when my heart wants a BU win but my mind is not convinced I say stay away.

I am with you on Illinois... Wisconsin is not very good at putting points on the board, but and it is a huge BUT.... this is your classic trap game. 9 1/2 though is a big number for Wisconsin to cover.

Do you have a feel with the other two Valley games and where do you lean MSU -2 1/2 home to Purdue? I like MSU to cover.

Here is summary of all the Las Vegas Sports books and the line movement-

? Must be some money going onto ISU to move the line from BU -2.5 at some places to where it is now with ISU -1.5

This line and the line at Evansville someone in Vegas is not big on Bradley. And for the line to jump essentially 3 points and making a home a dog, someone has put a lot of money on ISU. Very interesting, especially with this a rivalry game and ISU losing 5-6 on the road in conference.

That under of 133 not hard to like the under. 67-65 winner winner chicken dinner. Just for fun though I think this one goes over. 74-68.
 
When was the last time ISU beat Bradley at CA though?


It has been a little while hasn't it?


Of all the games at home this year, I fully expect the guys to be ready, and even more so, I expect them to play with a 19-pt chip on their shoulders!


I'll take our guys w/o even having to think about it!



I'll take Indiana State against the spread because I don't believe Creighton will cover that...


The last one, my head is saying Wichita, but my heart is feeling like they can't cover that one on the road.

The silence is deafening...the lines don't move 4 points in a day unless something is going on...anyone care to add to this?

On these websites: Sports Interaction.com, SportsBetting.com, bodog.com, SBGGLOBAL.com, Sportsbook.com, & OddsMaker.com The line was a pick em this morning and now stands at ISU -1.5. That's a surprising move.
