Someone in the thread said they were +9.5 at Ohio State. I like that because Ohio State is not consistent.

They're 9.5 point dogs in a game that will be lucky to hit triple digits in total (if it turns out the way I'm imagining it in my head)

Iowa is the Jekyll/Hyde of NCAAB. If you bet for or against them at all the betting gods will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger.

edit: that said...I am taking the under 139.5 on that game hardcore. The highest opponent score in B10 against Illinois this season was tOSU with 74 pts. That doesn't count as betting for or against right?

double edit: holy poo poo I just realized I completely misread Illinois' scores this year when I was tired as hell last night.. I should have stayed away from the O/U on this one.

Record: 10-11 (+3.37 units)

First bet for the day:

*2 units on Oregon St.*
These are two teams heading to opposite directions. Oregon is 4-2 in their last six games whille going 6-0 ATS. Meanwhile, the Beavers have lost four straight games and went 0-4 ATS during that stretch. They have already beaten this Ducks team on the road via a scintillating performance from Jared Cunningham, one of this year's candidates for the Pac-12 POTY.

Oregon has the better W/L record but examining the numbers will show why the spread is like this. The Beavers have a higher score differential (albeit they had a slightly easier schedule so far than the Ducks). They rebound the ball better (32% OffReb as opposed to the Ducks' 30.4%). They draw fouls at a higher rate (0.444 FTA/FGA as opposed to the Ducks' 0.398) and playing at home will just widen this gap (Pac-12 refs y'all).

Oregon is battling for an NCAA berth but the numbers show that they're a middle of the pack team in the Pac-12. Look for the Beavers to put a dent on Oregon's NCAA tourney aspiration and sweep the Civil War series.

*2 units on Colorado*
I'm taking this with the same reasoning I used yesterday on my picks. Fishy line, home court advantage (Colorado is 13-2 at home plus the Colorado altitude factor; Cal is just 5-4 on the road) and RLM/non-movement even if the public is pounding California. Colorado is also looking to bounce back after that embarrassing home loss to Stanford just a few days ago. This is Indiana St. yesterday all over again. If Colorado doesn't win this game, I look for a cover of the spread.

Don't bet on Iowa, really at all, for anything. Yeah, it should go under, but Iowa just scored 43 points in a half against a team who was averaging 50 some points scored against per game. Gatens could come out on fire, Basabe could be the beast that he is showing signs of. And you know, Illinois actually has good players. They could stop listening to their dumbass coach and just pound Iowa. I could see this as 81-70 (Iowa or Illinois) just as easy as 66-60.

God drat, should have went with my instinct and bet the Hoosiers today. They're just destroying Minnesota.

California is +3 now in some places. Still pretty happy with the Colorado +2.5 line with almost no vig at all.

Some Twitter rumors that Jean Dijardin has already won Best Actor, just put 3 units on him at -175. Also got Miami -1 (win and they're in situation) and Wisconsin +9.5.

Wow BetOnline just put a TWENTY-FIVE dollar max limit on the Best Actor prop (juuust after I bet 35 on it) and then took the bet down seconds later. Hoping that insider info is correct.

It would be interesting to see how many times a goon consensus bet has won or loss. We should keep track somewhere and see what our win/loss ratio is.

Are there also rumors about best picture? +850 for the field against The Artist on 5dimes seems odd. I liked the movie but didn't really see it as a completely obvious best picture choice.

That was more towards betting the over under. I'm thinking of doing a small Iowa/Colorado ml parlay. While betting on both on individual tickets too.

MSU destroyed them by double digits. I remember because I bet on them (+6) and they decided to poo poo the bed.
