#3 Posted: 3/19/2012 3:53:56 PM Nope and nope. They both may win, but I don't feel comfortable taking either one tonight. I don't think Tennessee is much better if at all than Middle Tennessee State, and Pittsburgh shows up some nights and takes the rest off. |

#7 Posted: 3/19/2012 4:01:47 PM Tennessee should win the game, but Teamrankings and Accuscore both like MTS +5.5, they also like Minnesota +6 and Illinois State +7.5, but who knows really, if these systems produced a guaranteed, risk free profit then why would they be selling the scheme instead of using it to make millions for themselves? |

#9 Posted: 3/19/2012 4:05:00 PM Juiced-up money lines are going to murder you in the long run.
If you take Stanford tonight at something like -400 and lose, you must hit your next 4 games just to break even. And it's not like 8-point favorites never lose outright - in last week's NIT games, St. Joe's (-6.5), Mississippi State (-7.5), Ole Miss (-8), Arizona (-8.5), and Seton Hall (-7.5) all lost straight up. All of those teams were somewhere between -300 and -400.
Lay the points or stay away.

Yes, that is a safe bet, cause they could all hit, and still the fav ML will hit if they win by 2 or 3 or 4...

I hear ya.... it is a risk to take ML, to be honest, I took ML all day yesterdat and LAID the pts too, I was up alot then Kansas kicked me, and so did the last game.... South Florida, what a joke, couldnt resist playing the last game after being on a hot streak.... sad.
