Yes, but he only had OU favored by 1 over Zona. You can't trust this guy. Would you take Texas or Kentucky +.5 against Southern Illinois?

How have you totals been doing? I had the OU under today which looked good until they caught fire the second half. I don't know about you, but I think the total lines are right on. I wish I had multiple locals who moved the lines a lot, good chances for middles. Look at the Duke game...

Good luck Valuist...

How about having Missouri rated ahead of plenty of teams, but namely Oklahoma. Duh.

 

[dr. freeze]

can't imagine Mizzou being a 4 point fav over Texas either.....

 

[Valuist]

Missouri ahead of Oklahoma is puzzling; he must seriously weight recent games. I'm guessing OU's power rating probably moved up by maybe 3 pts tonight. The Duke/Indiana line stood out the most, followed by Mizzou/UCLA.

Totals have gotten tougher since the tournament started.

Here's his explanation. 5 factors:

1. Actual team strength
2. How a team is playing right now
3. team depth and experience
4. how a team plays on the road
5. coaching

 

[dr. freeze]

using those 5 factors i would have to give the edge to OU over Mizzou in all those areas right now.......

How bout OU over Kansas?? They play pretty tough D
