Butler -2.5 @ Ill. Chicago

capped this game @ Butler-6, huge % on Butler, line not budging, is this the sucker play of the day or does the betting public win one here. Thoughts?

Butler 7-1 on the road (7-1 ATS), ILL-Chi 5-3 at home (3-4 Ats). Butler beat ILL-Chi 3 times by an average of 12ppg and by 5 at ill-chi last year. My opinion on why the spread appears lower is because it is on ESPN2 this afternoon. Home underdogs seem to play well on nat'l tv. Hard not to take Butler in this spot, but the line makes you think. Ill-chi is also 1-5 ATS on Saturday's this year

Good Luck

Like Butler in this spot as well even though they are on the road.
