I like TN -4.5 at GaTech tomorrow.
As well as State -9.5 tomorrow vs Dayton.

Come remind me how bad these are tomorrow night.

I hope I'm wrong but I've been a state fan long enough to know that state at -9.5 has disaster written all over it.

Wouldn’t bet on dogs. I’d bet on whoever Loyola Marymount is playing. ESP when they play the zags or any decent team. Easy money. That being said, it was years ago when they made me money. The colts vs titans that year made me quit altogether.

If you can get over the hyper volatility of betting on college basketball, it's fun. You just have to go in realizing that you are going to decide a huge number of games on ridiculous, unnecessary, and infuriating plays at the end of a game. In the long run those will break even if you don't steam or go on tilt flushing your bankroll after one of them. I've trained myself to expect it and be pleasantly surprised when it doesn't happen. Good example, the gigantic screwing I took on UNC -11 over Davidson Friday night.

Saw where UK only beat Harvard by 9 tonight. I assume they were favored by at least twice that. I bet many a blue blood lost their meth money on that one

Bump. Hope not prematurely. In related news and to distract from my boneheaded bump, the supreme court will hear oral arguments in NJ v. NCAA et al on Monday (related to expanding sports betting outside Nevada). If the NCAA's recent outcomes are any indication, we should all be walking up to a sports betting window in Tunica or Biloxi with hands full of cash soon. Ted Olson of Bush v. Gore fame will represent the betting interests.
