Line for ECU game

We are seven point dogs…

I have been burned betting on the 49ers in the last couple of seasons. But I think were in a good spot here getting seven points. Just laid $800 on the 49ers +7.

Go Niners

How the hell are we dogs to a team that plays mostly div-2 teams?!?

I expected to be dogs, but seven points is just too much. I wonder if the lines makers know that ECU has exactly one win against a division 1 opponent.

Oh they know. There is no way a casino puts a single dollar down unless it is aware of all the angles. What’s interesting is how many points they gave ECU. I just can’t wrap my head around seven.

I really think we can win this one. We are 2-1 on the road and they beat their last two non-division one opponents by 16 and 13, which is really poor.

Jeeeeeezzzzzz… can’t turn that down…

The line has moved a bit, now it is at +5.5

If you lose this bet, I quit basketball.

An analyst I follow for CBB… He usually hits 50% against the spread.

I wouldn’t follow anyone who only hits 50% of their bets.

They make predictions for every Bball game using a computer program they developed. It’s hard to say because it doesn’t take into account some factors like players being out, sicknesses, win streaks, team moral, etc… I basically use them for information purposes only. Straight up they are money, but against the spread usually end up hitting just above %50.

We are not very good.

Theoretically, you should be able to hit 50 percent by flipping a coin.

We’ve lost at Minges before with a better, more experienced team than this year’s squad. We play slightly better there than we do at App, but that ain’t sayin’ much.

Alan Major is our head coach.

Never bet on a team you like.

I would hold on to your money and just pull for the niners.
It is bad enough to lose and worse if money is riding on it.

I think we barely covered.
