Good shooting teams can dismantle the zone defense if UCLA so chooses to go that route tonight. E Wash in an excellent shooting team...

Well since the line opened at +10 it's completely understandable that they moved it back in favor of E Wash. I'm not a big fan of line movement the only thing it makes me do when I notice it happen on a game im wagering on is go take a quick look and find out if their is an injury or something I may have missed. But before I even go and look at this one the movement suggests to me that it could just be another head game tactic from out #1 enemy, THE BOOKS. We see this happen on a weekly and sometimes a daily basis. There are still many hours left for these clowns or as our good friend Mr Bator called them on many occasions (The Pirates of the Caribbean) to move the number on us again. It kind of sucks but sometimes getting a bad number is part of the game. Although it's usually the other way around for some of you that have been following this time it's the opposite and the late comers now get a better line. I'm going to read up a small bit and see if there has been a player change or something. Be back in a few...

Added play on:

South Carolina Upstate +30 for 10 units... The Spartans already have 2 road wins this season and a total of 6 wins. This looks like a great spot for another team to take advantage of Jared Sullinger missing yet another game. This is a boat load off points for a decent basketball team to be getting. The Buckeyes are a completely different team on defense with Sully out of the lineup and with SC State averaging 60+ shots per game along with 70ppg and 45% shooting from the field. I can't see the Buckeyes just breezing through this game. Upstate is going to take this game on a much more serious note and those 30 pts are of decent value...

South Carolina Upstate@Ohio St. over 136 for 10 units... Upstate has played 5 road games thus far and here are their scores and opponents followed by shots per game below...

(@Arkansas) 63-83L (68 shots)

(@Texas-Pan) 70-66w (59 shots)

(@Texas State) 82-74w (54 shots)

(@UNC-Ash) 81-88L (68 shots)

(@Dayton) 68-72L (57 shots)

So that's an average of 61.2 shots per game & 149ppg in Upstate's road games thus far this season. Upstate is a fast team and I like the value in the dog and the over tonight in this game...

Even on the off chance that Jaredd Sullinger suits up this evening I still like both of these numbers. But it's pretty obvious to me he will not which make my feelings even stronger on Upstate being able to keep this much closer than the number suggests...

Adding:

Ohio St 2nd half -12 for 10 units... Now that's a bit more realistic number of -21 instead of -30...

FEELING GOOD ABOUT THE E.WASH. GAME WITH LINE MOVE???

Line moves will almost NEVER make me feel one way or the other about a selection or game. Well maybe not never but a very high % of the time. What makes me feel one way or the other is the research conducted. Could care less about which way the books move numbers after my wager is placed (Unless an injury or something happens). The only thing that gets me a bit twisted is I have a bad number on this game compared to what i could have gotten. It's not the first time this has happened and it will for sure will not be the last. I have no control over what the clowns at the books decide to do with movement....BOL...
