However, IU has played UK tough a few times when they shouldn't have. The 2009 game was way closer than the talent said it should be.
I agree. I think IU stays within about 6-8 in the first 25 minutes. Then UK takes over and I expect about a 20 pt loss. I will be rooting hard for UK versus UNC though (I hate it when that happens). But #1 versus an unbeaten IU team should make for a fantastic Assembly Hall environment. Will be the toughest UNC has played in this year, crowd wise, imo.

What do you expect from a former player lol.

He is actually really objective about IU. But I think he is getting ahead of himself with there good start. But to his credit, before the year he said 22 wins or more.

It has been the single most circled game for the Hoosiers since the schedule was released. UK we give as an L. This was the true road game, versus a fellow bubble team that would decide a LOT.

Plus...for ****s sake, we have sucked for 3 years. We are 7-0 and 2-0 in TRUE road games. It feels unreal. Holy ****, I need a rum and coke.

Also, Verdell Jones could break his ankle and I wouldnt care.

I didn't mean it negatively. I understand it was a big game. I laughed at it. No biggie

haha, I wasnt trying to be defensive. I was just replying to you and posting what I was going to all in one lol.

The players went a bit overboard with that ball throwing, I agree. But at the same time, I cant blame them. They won 6 games a few years ago. They already have 7.

lol, Im kind of with you on that. I usually cheer for Wisconsin out of conference. But I am a big UNC fan this year since they were my pre-season and cause the Zeller family is now part of IU. And very nice people as well.

Tonight was a great betting night. $50 on VT +3. Lots of nice lines tonight.

Wake was getting +12. Over/under on UNC/WISKY was 132.

I liked last night more, simply because Arizona was an underdog against New Mexico State. Got the money line at +150. Possibly the easiest money of the season.

What do you think about Ole Miss over DePaul? Even line.

Ole Miss hasn't impressive and DePaul's been better than I would have expected so far, but I'm leaning towards going with talent to prevail on that one.

I'm the 1%. I don't occupy shit.

Also, I have self-control. I don't deposit more than I can afford, and if I lose that I don't deposit more until/unless I can afford it. I've got that OSU education guiding me, so I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

I am 1k up this NFL season. Over the last 6 seasons of college basketball I am up 5k. Only 2 sports I bet. Never bet on a game I care about and try not to bet a game I can watch. Make BIG bucks by knowing about mid majors cause Vegas isnt as sharp on those lines as they are with the bigger names.

I'm sure you run a 4.1 40, have a 35 on your ACT, and went to Harvard too like 95% of our OC companions.
