Maryland is +8!?!?

[dotcomceo]

Melo Trimble is the best player on the court and Maryland is hot and Koenig is hurt whether he plays or not. Wow why is Maryland up to +8 seems insane

 

[CBBPHENOM]

Yes it does. Wondering same thing.

 

[dotcomceo]

even when wisconsin wins its usually tight, they're not the style of team who runs a good team out of the building. Im shocked it opened at -6 and went to -8, you'd think public would be all over maryland

 

[99steak]

maryland offense style doesn't match up well against wisconsin defense style. line about right.

 

[Trajedy]

I think the public is all over Maryland

hence the line moving the other way Shush()*

 

[dotcomceo]

how so? Wisconsin has an awful 3 point D and maryland is a very good 3 point shooting team. Im more interested in how a hurt koening is going to play melo trimble. I dont even think a healthy koening can handle trimble much less a banged up koenig

Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooole lotta folks on Maryland yet line moves in their direction.....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Can U Say RLM???

~T~

Vegas looks simply at numbers, they don't normally adjust lines based on what you are mentioning ie someone hurt and someone playing well on the road. Normally in this situation if u love Maryland tread lightly, don't over bet. In the long run you will save yourself a lot of money.

Wiscy at home is a completely different team. If this were neutral I would like marylands chances but don't think they can win here

Koening won't guard Trimble, Showalter will. I'm a Wisconsin fan and this line seems absurd to me. I would have made it Wisconsin -3 because of home court.

People backing Wisconsin have to be going on the "due" theory. They're due to finally shoot well and play a good game because they haven't in their last 6-8 or so.

Love Maryland today. I am having the worst college BB betting season of my life of course, so any wise men reading this will load up on Wisconsin and probably coast home with an easy cash.

 

[dotcomceo]

its +7 now, still though too many points wisconsin really isnt that good of a team, maryland moneyline is the play imo at +285

 

[AxelFreed]

Any time I can get Maryland plus points I take it

 

[dotcomceo]

+8 was easy money its +6 now

 

[MactheKnife]

is Wisconsin or nothing for me. ..but I don't like it...so I'm laying off

 

[dotcomceo]

i just dont see how anyone can bet wisconsin -280 without their best player vs the better team it has to be maryland moneyline or nothing

 

[arniesarmy]

Happ is by far their best player. Koenig is solid. I could not take Wisconsin. As was mentioned earlier, the Badgers could be on a six-game losing streak the way they have played.

i just dont see how anyone can bet wisconsin -280 without their best player vs the better team it has to be maryland moneyline or nothing

this is exactly why is wiscy or nothing....linesmakers don't give gifts.....just empty boxes with pretty bows

 

[Trajedy]

Dead on the money

 

[MactheKnife]

yep

 

[Trajedy]

Just wish there were more opportunities like this

they don't come very often
