Western Carolina @ Pitt -Line

[R-M-U-h-o-o-p-s-f-a-n]

The Vegas line is Pitt -20. I say Pitt covers that line for this one.
Davidson beat them 87-54 and we beat Davidson by 25 so this should be an easy win.


Thoughts...?

Go Pitt...

Those lines are always tricky. If Jamie is experimenting with lineups for the final 6 minutes or so, anything can happen. A 28 point lead can end up at 18.

I feel like Pitt is due for a pre holiday snoozer- sandwiched between MSG, Cuse and the holidays, this game feels like a low energy game. I bet the bench gets a lot of minutes and we kind of coast to a comfortable win. Something like 84-67 seems like a final to me.

Yeah.... I hate big lines like this. Pitt can have a 30-point lead with 3 minutes to go and put the walkons in, and see the opponent end the game on a 12-0 run to cover the spread.

True... No matter what I would say they at minimum win by 14 or 15

We will see.

82-60 Pitt. Feels like a Jamel Artis 20ppg plus type game

Sagarin's computer also predicts Pitt by 20. Lets hope they don't sleepwalk through this one.

Teamrankings.com gives Pitt a 98.4% chance of winning tonight.

The scary thing about that... is it implies a 1.6% chance of losing. That's about 1 chance in 62.5.

This time of year, every day, or every other day, it seems some highly favored team goes down.

Ironic complaints from the guy who couldn't be bothered to come to the biggest OOC game ever at the Pete.

 

[Bethlehemjohn]

Davidson only beat Moorehead by 4 today.

 

[PittEngineer12]

For the reasons above the line worries me. I am more interested in taking the Over 146. But I could see this game going with the same score Davidson beat them by and that is only 141 and doesn't cover.

 

[mo cheeks]

Give the 20. If they play like they did against Davidson they win by 40. I think they have some momentum.

 

[R-M-U-h-o-o-p-s-f-a-n]

Western Carolina "might" actually cover the spread or better.

Welp, so much for that prediction. LOL.

Yea. LOL. We were lucky enoguh to win.

Western Carolina played like a team that seemed to know how to play basketball and "no where" near a 20 pt under dog. Hopefully they compete to win their conference this year.

Ultimately, a win is a win. Even if this one was ugly.

You're a twit. I I contribute more to Pitt than you probably earn in a year, champ! Go deliver your newspapers.
