Pitt now a slight favorite

in most books. I hope it's a foretelling line shift.

Predicted by Mo Cheeks last Sunday night, Pitt would end up a 1-2 point favorite.

I noticed that today too. That's really surprising to me.

Pitt was favored against VT and GT too... People like to put money on us, apparently.

Which makes no sense.... because we're 12-18 against the spread this year.

Didn't realize we were that bad against the spread. we should have been small underdogs at VT and at GT.

Maybe the strength of the ACC in the tourney is having an effect

The computers had Pitt as 1-2 point dogs in both games. Wound up being bet up to Pitt being favorites.

Same situation with tonight. Wisconsin is a 1 point favorite per the computers but bettors have somehow managed to make Pitt the favorite.

It is a strange phenomenon, given Pitt against the spread this year. Surprised people are betting so confidently on Pitt.

^^^ Exactly this ^^^ - Hope Pitt is loose and ready to blow the doors off the Badgers. H2P!

If Pitt has an average shooting day, they should win. We would have won both the GT and VT games with average shooting.
