sucker bet...I will take the contrarian position and take Butler (the line will go up) and prob. get them at +5.5

[bigdog237]

i was just wondering,should i wait or jump on it now,...so you see it going higher

[bryce]

Down to 3.5 as we speak.

Line from bookmaker. I know my book got their clocked cleaned tonight and many were on The teams that won tonight. I would have to guess most will hit up on UConn. Looks like sharp money is on Butler.

[bryce]

Let me clarify. I am one that believes sharp money comes in real early when the line comes out and real late when the game is near tipoff. Hey I may be off base with that assumption but that is what I have seen over the years.

I think it is going to be one hell of a game with the outcome decided in the last minute. If Uconn covers imo, it will be on late ft's. Think I'm going to have to ride Butler

[bryce]

Wayne gave the winner of this semi-final which was Butler 1% chance. I think they have a huge chance in winning this baby.

Wayne still have the same opinion on this or did you up it to 2 percent? Just asking buddy I remember you being adamant about it.
2 years in a row with Butler getting center stage. This Stevens guy is looking like a genius again!

[kbsooner21]

Butler + is a steal

This is a toss up game

[TOYER]

I figured this would be a 2 point spread. going to wait it out and jump on uconn

[savage1]

Just curious-who would you folks bet on if the game was a pick -110 either way?

[plandbill]

Butler is the better team right now and will win this game, they will not let Kemba get in lane and he will have to shoot 3's to beat them, which I do not believe he will. This is a great bet take 4 pt s and the ML and go to bank

I don't like teasers as a general rule, but in this case, I just did a small one with Ct. +2 1/2(bought a point) and Butler + 9 1/2.
Usually what happens when I do one of these, is that Butler will win by 3 or more or Ct. will win by 10 or more. lol

i hope the line goes back up to at least 4,i could have had it at that but waited

I think the line will go back up personally but who the hell knows. I agree with your assessment of line movement with smart money movement in the beginning and the end. However, the line might stay low due to the success of Butler in last year's final when nobody gave them a chance. I was thinking Butler would be the contrarian play but it looks like UCONN might be that play. If the line creeps down anymore I am going to play UCONN minus the points.

[BigWeiner]

I really like UConn to win this game.
