Didnt really see the team fading down the stretch. They lost at home Sat to cmich and I have no explanation for that other looking past a weaker opponent. Blown out at wmich, but bg has laid some real stinkers on the road over the years. They beat Miami at home prior to that after big line move on miami.
I was at both Toledo games. In bg, they came back from being down 20 and the place is like playing in a box for road teams. The game at toledo was 8pt loss and the game was closer than the final score. If my memory serves correctly it was one possession game under 2 minutes. They also won at Kent late in season and other quality wins in a very balanced mac conference.
Bowling Green is a very tough place to win and has been for years. I simply prefer to back bgreen at home when the price is reasonable and you seldom find them as home dogs. I've seen big ten teams leave bg with head btw tail and big L on their record.
Ball St has recent key injuries at guard spot, so that wont help them in this very loud arena. Also, they other than past couple games, I didn't see anything special from ball st. Plenty of L on their record in February.
Hard to get a lead that is safe at Anderson arena. Also, dont believe ball st coach buckley carries as much weight as dakich bg coach and longtime knight asst at indiana. If it comes down to close calls at end of game i believe this home court matters.
Overnight line dropped because of foward fitch suspension pending. I laid the 3 overnight and added more at 2 this morning. BG has won close games at home this season and I hope the small chalk doesnt come into play tonight.
Any comments appreciated. :drink:
