Illinois +11.5 @ Gonzaga

[Cougar Bait]

You have to be kidding me. That seems like an awful lot of points. Also this is a rivalry game, these two play every year now. I see the line as more like Gonzaga -7 myself. Zags with an definite edge in shooting and defense but look at the teams they have played...Pacific? Lewis Clark St.? WTF Zags barely winning on a layup at the buzzer the other night, just do not see why this line is double digits. Illinois will have 4 days between games so travel shouldn't be an issue.

Perhaps I am missing something.

lines are moving around like drunks right now.

blame the usa

Zags pretty solid at home. Watched Illinois play too and they look pretty bad as well.....good match up for Pangos/Harris/Olynyk vs Illini

just bought quite a bit of 12.5 ... gl today cougs

That line must be based on power stats plus home court. Illinois owns Gonzaga in this series they are 5-0 ATS ...I did see the line went to 12 but this is a ranked Illinois team who also happens to be undefeated. I think it stays within the number despite the line move.

I did grab OSU -20 last night. That one moved in my favor. LBS has a 9 hour bus ride. Good luck with that.

Line makes no sense unless someone is hurt for Illinois. Gonzaga will be flat after playing their instate rivals in a nail-biter a few days back.
If Gonzaga wins it will be by 6-7 points max.

Also if you aren't on West Virginia by now, you should be

Throwing them in a ML parlay with Duke and K State also wouldn't be a bad idea.

 

[Cougar Bait]

Well OSU was easy

Honestly I don't think Illinois will be that easy

I do think they cover though

Excellent job here CB! Wish I was around yesterday, 9 hour bus ride info would have sold me on OST! Discussion is always nice for those of us who aren't as informed! Might save or make money for fellow posters! :

PS Wally, good work staying on top of this guy!

I agree top 20 team, ton of potential but need to gel more. So explosive but can be broken down by a more fundamental team. Should be a fun year but next year is a possible title.
