Don Marco, There is a very good reason why the Oklahoma State ML @-230, is not included in winkyduck's poll. As for the game last night, (pt spread 4.5-5.5) Michigan up by 7, Rutger's came down the floor with 6 sec left and took an almost meaningless 3 pt shot. Now as the ball left his hands and was up in the air, how many people do you think had their pants up in the crack of their ass??? All of their pt. spread hopes falling down towards the basket. Was i concerned at that point, no. Did the ball go in? It could have and it did hit the rim. Good Luck!!!!!

Winky,
who do you like in this game? I think I'm sold on GT
good luck<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
i'm rooting like hell for Tech - because if Tech wins i can possible finish 3rd in my pool - and win some $$$$$$$$$ - while if OSU wins - i can't. don't really have any opinion here - think it should be a great game. i just hope it ends by about 5:15P (PST) since - believe it, or not - i have a WEDDING to attend that starts @ 5:30P (PST) and i don't wanna miss the end of this game. i have already told the groom - someone i have known for 30+ years he is an asshole for getting married this weekend - but thankfully - i have a small hand held tv i can watch the uconn/duke game on during the reception.
as for the OSU M/L question - not included because NO ONE should be playing that here - for as i have said many times in the past - that is a BAD BET. it might win - but just because you win a bet doesn't mean it is a good bet (and vice versa - just because you lose a bet doesn't mean it is a bad bet) and betting OSU -210ish is a BAD BET - and everyone but 1 person here knows that.

If you lose the Georgia Tech pt spread @+4.5, would you consider that a bad bet??? How about the Georgia Tech ML @+185??? Personally, i will not be putting my money on Georgia Tech to win. Good Luck!!!!!

NO. nothing wrong with losing those bets - they are not bad bets because there is value in them. i will go one step further. right now - the total on the game is 139. if you bet this UNDER, still - even if you win the bet - it is a BAD BET. how can i say that? simple - the total was something like 142 - or higher when the line first came out. betting it now you have lost AT LEAST 3 points - meaning this line now has NO VALUE in it at all.
