10 point lead at half in what is essentially a home game, and it looks like they are going to lose outright. I was damn close to betting on these guys too. Dodged a bullet there!
How bad is BYU?

To answer my own question... they are REALLY bad. :142smilie Note to self... file BYU under the "teams to fade" list. :SIB
not that i'm mad! i took davidson for a little, would've for more but they ****in lost to charlotte last week! now i don't know what to do w/ So. Ill/Charlotte. Charlotte at home has beaten Wake and Davidson and I like the way SO.ILL plays... no play, i guess.
Davidson played UNC and Duke extremely close...very well coached. They may get tired in the 2nd half.....
i know taht, htat's why i bring up the loss to charlotte... not to mention the loss to W. Michigan! i hope they beat UCLA straight up and they learn how to close a game!
Yeah, Davidson is a pretty good team but I'm surprised by the score. Over the years UCLA has had a tendency to lay an egg on occasion, and it looks like this is one of those games. I'm sure they will come back and make a game of it, but will it be enough?
Purdue is the team on my shit list right now....up three to down 12 in a blink of an eye....final lose by 10, so i got a push on the closing line, plus the 1/2 a bought.....but that was a sure thing like five minutes ago......Boilers Blow!
Purdue game ending was brutal - what a collapse...i got it at +10 but i know alot of lines were at -9 or -9.5 - they were up and then i think down 1 w/ 2 minutes to go - teams shouldn't lose by double digits at that point...how it goes though i guess - going to be on the other side of these games the other half of time
Hell, you guys are right. Let's get a list going of crappy teams that can't close out games. :142smilie
BYU
Kansas
Purdue
Illinois
others?

UCLA is gonna blow Davidson out, just watch. Davidson shot lights out the first 15minutes, now look!
It helps when you hit 6 out of your first 9 3's and shoot almost 60% from the field while the other team starts off shotting not eve 30%

Covering the spread IMO...which I think was 13.5?
But I see UCLA winning by atleast 15.
Just my thoughts, but I could be wrong....CERTAINLY wont be 1st or last LOL

I don't care the score as log as UCLA wis. I'm still pissed at Davidson for playig like ass against Charlotte. :nono:
Put a small play on Charlotte at home getting 4.5 now. S ILL looks like the better team but they havent played in a week and Char off 2 wins at home I'll take my chances.

I watched the last 10 minutes of 2nd half of the Illinois game - and wow i really felt bad for Illinois backers today - i didn't have any play on it - but wow - looking at the play by play i see they started the game like a 12-0 run or something, then 2nd half started w/ a 9-4 run - they were up by double digits and then to go to OT and lose was really pathetic...part of betting on hoops though - lots of big swings, collapses...just how it goes...but yeah it's really disappointing when it doesn't go your way 
- i thought there was no way Purdue doesn't cover +10 when there was 2 minutes left...i was wrong
