Big East on the other hand linesmakers have underrated at least they have to date

anytime you see a BIG FAV take the 1st half minus the pts. won ALOT more than it lost in the early going.

I dont think KU is the best...their offense looks terrible. Memphis good defense but they are so out of sync

agree with this. looks like it could be a year for big, strong defensive teams vs. quicker, more atheletic teams.

well, its one game. they kicked the snot out of Hofstra the first game ( hofstra not great, but still beat the sh1t out of them)

returning players, talent....they have the best team on paper....

not like UNC last year, not dominating, but its wide open and they are the best of the wide open.......IMO, but what do i know. i only study this stuff for months

I like to take notes of bad teams that did well against better opponents. Wofford kept it close against Pitt and beat Georgia...they will be an 8 point dog to a conference opponent somewhere down the road after they return to mediocrity...bide my time.

Was on Georgia last night and it went pretty much how I'd expect it (minus the win/cover lol). Was banking on Georgia to heavily out rebound them with Thompkins inside. He had 16 boards I believe, the rest of the team decided they didn't feel like getting any. On top of that the free throws were bad. Biggest numbers for me are the free throws and rebounds which makes it hard early on in the season to figure shit out.

There is much more parity in CBB this year than in previous years, which makes for some great dogs out there. Line makers will true things up quickly, but there will be more than enough great value bets out there this year.
