Sorry Shrink

[dougstewart]

One and done for ODU!

 

[michael777]

i think they have a good shot at beating michigan state,michigan state is a SOFT team

 

[Dante]

I do not think they beat MICH state...but GO ODU!!

 

[Journeyman]

#12 seed no surprise, and if they didn't win their tournament they wouldn't have made it.

 

[TheGeneral+]

The game has to be played.

If Michigan State was favored by 7.5 over Iowa in the Big Ten tournament, I would think that they would be DD favorites over ODU? Any thoughts on what the line will be? I will gladly take the points with ODU in this one.

 

[Journeyman]

Michigan State will probably be about 8-9 over ODU...

I hope ODU beats them, hate the Spartans!

I hope we are both right about this line. I will gladly take the 10 points with ODU if that is indeed the line.

 

[HacheMan]

Surely most of you know of the #12 seed rule......

MSU -10 sounds about right

 

[Journeyman]

Hache i spoke of this two weeks ago, the #12 seed is Cinderella and I predicted they would be a #12, this is the spot, if you're rooting for ODU.

please reiderate

 

[Journeyman]

I lowered it to 8-9 , I will settle on 9...We will see shortly.

 

[Journeyman]

please reiderate

For a long time atleast one #12 seed upset the 5 seed...that streak was snapped over the past few years....still a good spot though

 

[HacheMan]

please reiderate

Usually every year a #12 upsets a #5....

When was it J, about 3 years ago 3 of the 4 #12's pulled it off...........?

 

[HacheMan]

I think only last year, correct?
Because I remember pointing it out to my buddy and telling him "Watch this be the one year it doesn't happen".......:movingeye

 

[Journeyman]

I know it happened atleast once recently I think its been more than once though Hache...To be honest the years are running together on me...I am almost certain its more than just one year now (that it hasn't happened)

 

[go2guy]

Two words for you Shrink....Paul Davis! :monsters-

You may be right as I don't follow college basketball enough.
The rule used to be to lay the ML on all 4 #12 seeds, and if one hit back then,which was an every year thing, you profited. However, as you said, didn't happen last year I don't believe, and the spreads matter more now when related to the ML because linemakers may of caught on to it and adjusted.....

 

[michael777]

because odu is the official rx team,that alone should provide them a little extra respect from the linesmakers :howdy:
