North Carolina/Wisconsin over-under 140 trap?

Post by OUMO »

I am thinking this is easy money on the over.

Any reason why a person should bet the under?

Maybe if Wisconson can get the Heels to play down to them. But I highly doubt that happens.

Wisconsin seems to dictate the pace in most games...I see the game being in the 60s. I like Carolina 68-62. The game will be high-scoring if the Badgers turn over the ball a lot and get killed on the glass. If they let Felton and Co. run a lot...the Heels will win by atleast a dozen.

I'd stay away from that one. UNC can put 70+ on Wisconsin, but not many teams do. Their opponents average 50-65 against them, and Wisconsin probably won't be able to score enough points against a team like UNC to get over that over.

Hell, UWM, a sweet 16 team, only put up 37 against them in a regular season game. 37!

Wisky doesn't always win, but you can damn well bet they're gonna make you play their game, like Shoalzie said.

yeah ^^^^^

also take the "pucker-factor" into effect.

you saw 2 teams gag on hairballs today with big leads.

the game will be at Wisconsin's pace...if they're successful; then they'll LEAD with a lower score....choke, and NC will advance.

+/- 140? ---->Vegas wasn't built on Winners!

Very true but both games were scoring fests. West Virginia shot the lights and got their big lead but Louisville scratched their way back. Arizona got clutch baskets out of Frye and Adams and McLellan was a very underrated player last night as well to give them a double digit lead late but then the turnover bug hit them and Williams hit some monster shots. If this game is low scoring, the lead probably won't be any higher than 10 points either way so a run at the end of the game is possible. If UNC is on though, I really have a hard time thinking Wisconsin hangs with them.

This game depends on which Wisconsin team shows up. The one that completely embarrassed the game of basketball in the 1st half against NC State or the one that looked like a Top 10 team in the 2nd half against NC State. If they play like they did in the 1st half, they'll get beat about 92-65. If they play like they did in the 2nd half, they have a shot to win.

If the Badgers can control the tempo and frustrate UNC, Bucky will win this game.

I would take the over on 140 points. I'm thinking Badgers win 74-72.

The way both teams shot in the first half blew my theory out of the water. 44-44 would've been my guess for a score with 10 minutes left in the game...not halftime. Great flurry to the end of the first half by the Badgers but the Heels were too good at the end. Sean May is an absolute animal. There have been a lot of big bodies to play in college hoops recently but he's got to be one of the most agile for his girth. He reminds me a lot of Elton Brand...May probably has a few pounds on him though.

Fuck you all, as soon as I see any of you get some nuts or a sack and bet on a game then I will give some respect. Until then, I have bet the over on 2 games and won $100 on each, if anyone else has won more money then do tell, otherwise I have bode. :D

MO,

Shoulda listened to me. I don't bet on sports, but I think the 140 was a lock for the over.
