🤢🥴_ Fubah's 2023 Hoops Thread _😲🥵

I want to tail you on this game Fubah but this morning that line has jumped to -175 everywhere. Is that still a go? 

IMHO, I would still take it, yes.....bearing in mind that this does not come with a guarantee. Small favs frequently lose no matter how great they might have appeared the previous game. For that reason I have not made this one a *Best Bet...

NCAA Women 2023: 

        Best Bests:  30 - 13

  WNCAA YTD:  51 - 27  for +68.25 units*

*....if grading each bet as to-win-5-units (like others on this forum do with their picks!)....Or, if insisting on grading all forum W/L records by the same equal standard - ie, every pick as if to win one unit -  then +13.65 units

@fubah2

   Thanks! 

@fubah2

 i will tail u  on iowa too     like everyone else on the forum  

I am looking forward to another exciting game, which should be VERY CLOSE!

LSU (in slightly tougher conf)
47.2% floor      36% perimeter        70% freebies

IOWA (slightly weaker conf)
51% floor       37.2% perimeter      76% freebies

i got -170

Because I believe this game should be very close, I will be looking to add a shot for a middle by getting a large spread on LSU if possible to go along with my IOWA bet.....depending on game flow and boxscore metrics as usual, of course

Caitlin did NOT commit a foul but they gave her one anyway.

Czinano did NOT commit a foul but they gave her one anyway. Now she has to sit with 2, and she is the #2 best player and ONLY inside presence to counter LSU bigs for IOWA

Czinano's sub, O'Grady, did NOT commit a foul but they gave her one anyway. Game announcers agreed with both my comments here

Warnock DID commit a ticky-tak foul but also has to sit with 2 in the first quarter.....2 starters OUT for Iowa

Make up calls all over the phuckin place!!!!

LSU star Reece blown for **NOTHING** - now she has to sit with 2 in the 1st Q.....and also a mystery call on Poule, so she has to sit for LSU as well!

BAD officiating!  Seriously!   I'm a former ref, and rarely complain about the refs. 

Agree on the ticky tack foul calls. Its the Championship, let them play.

LSU seems to have been coached to "flop" like they've been SHOT anytime a Hawkeye gets close.....like the soccer players do.....roll around in absolute agony then leap up and continue 100% healthy.....

Yep.....it's LSU's day........unbelievable 3pt hits waaaaaaaayyy above their 36% season avg......9 for 12 is 75%......ALthough I do expect this will drop considerably in the 2H, what's working in LSU's favor is the ticky-tack and mystery fouls called on IOWA -- Clark now has 3.....She will start the 2h, but she's lame duck defensively now....they'll either one on one her or P&R to get her guarding the driver and LSU will score at will  OR the refs *WILL* blow CLARK for her 4th.....effectively handing the championship to LSU, regardless what happens to Reece for LSU.....As I have written in this space the past 4 days, IOWA is totally dependent on the scoring and playmaking of CLARK....if she is out or even limited, they lose for sure.....

BAD officiating....... What I suspect they'll do now is call more fouls on LSU mediocre players to make it look credible when they ding CLARK for her 4th.....

i think refs wanted the UNDER but LSU cant miss lol

I don't mind losing my bet on IOWA (if it happens).....you make your bets -> you take your chances......some win, some lose......no problem.....but it's particularly annoying when the result is decided by factors we cannot handicap.....basketball officiating!! (or in some cases injuries, or ridiculously high shooting)

IF Clark is assessed a 4th soon in the 2H, I'll be grabbing LSU at almost any price.....

A 19 pt LSU lead makes them a -2800 fav.....

Now a phantom 3rd foul against IOWA's only interior presence, Czinano.......as usual it's a case where Reece initiates the contact (which is illegal) and slams her shoulder into a defender and the ignorant refs blow a foul on the defender....they are reviewing this and it should be overturned or even an OFFENSIVE FOUL!

Yep....Reece gets away with it ....AGAIN!! PLus scores two freebies......

8 pt lead for LSU and their fav line is down to -320

65 - 57 for LSU with 4:46 left in 3rdQ ....their are -350 favs at timeout (with the ball)

IOWA has 4 fouls on starter Warnock (a 3 pt shooter) so she's out for awhile now

Plus 3 fouls on each of their top two starters,  Czinano (Bigman) and CLARK.....if either of these two gets a 4th soon, I am grabbing LSU heavy.....

KEY GAME MOMENT////possibly..... play under review for a  4th FOUL on Czinano.....she SHOULD have been called initially but they missed it (BAD officiating)......

I repeat if Czinano or CLARK is assessed a 4th foul soon......I am all in on LSU

Fav line on LSU right now with 7 pt lead is -330

Czinano's 4th foul with 1:03 left in 3rdQ.......shooting 2 freebies......and CLARK also given a T

LSU -650 *BEST BET
