These are all TIES WIN (6 1/2 pts)

The ones I'm really on the fence about are:

New Mexico -2 OR Air Force +15???

Iowa st or Kansas St +6.5???

Kentucky -10 OR Tennessee +23

N Carolina -91/2 OR Wake Forest +22.5


What are your thoughts on these?

Which of these heavy favs has the biggest blow out potential?

It seems like in college BB you see less blowouts compared to pro. It is rare a team wins by more than 20. Its like a respect thing or something for not embarrassing the other team. Which is the only reason I like Wake forest & Tenn with all those points.

I see a ton of good cappers on Mich St though. I know illinois has the home adv but I'm seeing Mich st has been playing very well lately.

Why do you like ILL at +8. Just think they can keep it close enough to cover that #?

I was originally thinking New Mexico -2 But what scared me about Air Force is they just too UNLV to OT and barely lost to them by a bucket. UNLV was favored by 10.5 in that game. Air Force seems very strong at home. Or am I missing something about UNLV that game?

Looks like a losing teaster to me....I would take that bet.  I am not a teaster hater at all, matter of fact I play teasers often, but 13 games is almost impossible to hit.  There will inevitably be an upset or two......Just my opinion.  Good Luck

Kind of agree. I like most of your plays. It's just I know that even 4 team 9 point teasers are even difficult to hit, so 13 -6.5 point teaser is going to be very unlikely to hit. Good luck though.

how about mixing them up into smaller 4 or 5 game teasers and then mix them up again to different game match ups I have been pretty good at those I am personally staying away from the kst and iwst game and the okie st and TTech game bnut I like the side you took if any. but I hear people bash teasers all the time but if you capp them well they have a great chance of hitting I can only tease mine to a max of 5.5 except for a three team then you can go as high as 8 and sometimes those are even hardto hit... Good luck hope you hit them all.

Tough place to play, 8 should be coverable. I think they may even win straight up.
