Just wanted to get some opinions on the Pac-10 followers. I know USC isn't a great team and they are without Pruitt right now, but should Wazzu be laying 7.5 to ANYONE? They are far from a great team and the slow-down type of basketball they play lends itself to very low-scoring games. Would appreciate any thoughts.
USC +7.5??
- Thread starter Glenn Quagmire
- Start date
Even with the blow out loss to UCLA they only gave up 50 points. I think UCLA's pressure defense absolutely killed WAZZU from the start and they could never rebound. I feel as though USC will have a lot of trouble scoring today when there main shooter is not playing. Nick Young is very talented but he feeds of Pruitt and vice versa. I like Washington State to win this game by double digits.
Good luck with whatever you play though!

Good points. I know Wazzu doesn't give up many points but that was part of the reason why I was thinking they may be a go-against with a line that high. I was thinking it would be a low-scoring, ugly game for both teams. With Pruitt out there just isn't much talent on the floor for either team. I'll probably end up staying away, I just know I'll regret it big time if USC stays within the number.

True enough. It's just that my eyeballs have this habit of popping out of my skull whenever I see the Cougs favored by 7.5 over anyone in the Pac-10. I can understand when they're highly favored over opponents in their creme puff non-conference schedule, I'm just always skeptical when it's a Pac-10 team. I'm not playing it though. Thanks for the opinions guys...
7-0 USC over four minutes in. Wazzu STILL has not scored. I knew I was going to regret not betting against those losers.

Ok, I may not be the smartest tool in the shed but that WAS sarcasm right? Wazzu explosive? They scored 30 points against UCLA and probably won't break 45 in this one. I'm just blowing off steam though... I outthought myself on this one. I knew I should have went with my gut.
Yes very sarcastic - but considering I have 300 on wazzu I have to just tell myself I have a chance somehow someway..but probably not..they are terrible
Yes this is ridiculous I have honestly never seen anything like it, might be the worst play of my life, maybe they will catch fire in the 2nd half!!!! I want dick bennett to suit up, I bet he can stroke it
here comes wash st. chopping the lead down. What i dont understand was more people were on USC but the line climbed from 6 to 7.5. Maybe a trap?!?!?
Thats what I am thinking..as bad as they look so far, I still think they could potentially cover, I mean the start has not been ideal at all, but atleast they are still somewhat close
I love that they are cutting into the lead. SC may actually GET points in the 2nd half. That would be a beautiful thing. Then again, these teams are both awful. If I was smart I would probably just stay away.
SC will be getting several points if they are still leading. Wash St. can be deadly from 3 when the catch fire so I would stay away.
Ok, it's now tied at 18. If Wazzu was playing a good team I would probably jump all over the good team in the 2h. Given that it's USC I think I'll stay away. Good luck with Wazzu Sanks.
