trying to get a grip on this v tech line today. they've been getting crushed when losing. every time they have lost to a team  better ranked by kenpom than them, the margin is much greater than 5. so... nc, a team far better, only giving up 5 points?

v tech is only 8-7 ats and 2-4 in conference. dating back to 2013, v tech has always gotten double digit spreads

v tech +4

historically VA Tech seems to cover the spread at home against UNC but that is usually with a double digit line.  UNC has won the last 7 against Tech but yeah this line looks very fishy.  I am not a fan of UNC this year especially on the road in the ACC but at -4 its giving me some pause.

great call on VA Tech ODB

gotta love those fishy lines man.  I almost take them every single time.  Unfortunately for me the kiddo was sick so I didn't get a chance to cap any games.

Just blindly took Denver 3rd since it was only -.5

we shall see

LIVE at the half, I believe it was DEN 3Q -2.5.

Couldn't chance it and glad I passed.

BIGDTITLE, you get some great lines. I definitely would have taken that if my book offered pre-game 3Q lines.

Nice reward while taking care of your family.

yeah Parlay,

only advantage of betting it pregame......disadvantage being they are up 20 at half and mail it in during the 3rd.  However, the rate at which its hitting I will take that chance every night.

I know Bovada doesn't offer 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter lines but my local does.  Im curious how many other well known books don't offer those options either?

i'll be making a play on dayton but would like to see if i can get a .5 point or more first. also like a&m money line here. let's see if we can get the public to beat these two lines to death before making a move

i'm not liking how oklahoma is turning out. i figured the line would sky rocket. i may buy out of this one if it continues like this

looking at a few others but running out of time right now

locked and loaded:

Dayton -1

Arkansas +1.5

Over 27 points for Lebron -105.   Looks like bait based on his last 2 performances but I think he will show out for Pop and the Spurs.  

Cant seem to pull the trigger on OSU against my Red Raiders.  So, rather than betting against them I will just sit back and hopefully enjoy a 9 point victory

Will the Spurs roll over out of pity for the Cavs?

Tony Parker still has it when he wants it...that key elbow jumper is money and the Cavs cant stop it...

Btw...Isiah Thomas is bad...Danny Ainge is a genius...."back the brinks truck up"

the amount of drama in the nba amazes me. i haven't watched an nba game since the first week of the regular seaso i saw a quote about the nba and man was it spot on. 
"sad to say the nba is a day time soap opera that occasionally involves a basketball game"

So glad I got the chance to buy out of Dayton LIVE when it got back to 7.5. It feels almost as good as a win.

Oh, and thanks guys for the Arkansas play. Nice!
