Just one so far:
Texas -1.5 for 3 units ? Going against the trend here as you have to go back 5 seasons for a road team winning in this series. Still, I think Texas has righted the ship a bit in their last 2 games, and A&M is still a bad team. If Texas can control the glass like they did in the first game, they can pull this one out. Texas FT shooting is scary though, especially in what should be a close grind it out game, but its not making me back away from this play.
Not playing the Big East Under like I have been on Mondays. Tough one to gauge with Dyson out. I?m sure many are thinking ?should be lower scoring game w/o him?. The oddsmaker definitely tweaked the # down a bit with him out. And then the Total has been driven down even a little more after the opening line. However, you have to remember UConn?s defense isn?t as good with out Dyson, which could mean an Over opportunity. Tough to tell how this will unfold imo. These two teams in the past couple of years have played pretty slow paced games which would support the Under. There are a couple more factors pointing towards the Over though. While both clubs are two of the best in the nation defensively, they also can obviously score so if either side gets a decent lead, the team losing will definitely be pushing the pace.
If the total keeps heading down, I may put a small bet on the Over.
