Was shocked to see that line Illinois +3. I had a Pick em as the fair value line.

Go Illini....

I'm sure Olympic appreciates the donation.

Laid -2 -108 at Pinny before the game was over. I think we may see some 4's out there before tip.

Illinois lost 1 game by 1 point this year. +3 is a gift. Illinois runs a patient offense and Carolina is incapable of playing D for the full 35 seconds. Illinois will get great looks all game long. If they knock down open shots, which they usually do, Carolina will lose.

No effin way it goes to +4. That would be nutz!!!

Yea Maybe at some some some rouge books that will look to close up shop after the game and steal the funds if it goes down.

i have no idea who will win, who does but the +3 was the overlay according to my numbers and I was pretty shocked to get 3 points in value from what I thought Id have.

what is there to bet on Sunday other than baseball? NASCAR? Kurt Busch?

Maybe a FIXED soccer game anyone?

I think this line is about right at -3 and I don't expect it to return to -2 or even - 2 1/2 We'll see -4 before We ever see another -2 IMO

D2bets · Apr 2, 2005

kermit, it's -2.5 at -105 both ways at Pinny so it doesn't have to return to get there. I think ti drops to -2.

D2,
You are so correct. It is only a guess but I believe that -3 is more accurate and - 3 1/2 is game time line. We shall see.

Got +140 on ml at Cris. I, too, had this one capped at pick 'em. +140 is worth giving up the +2.5 that they had game at 15 minutes ago.

D2bets · Apr 3, 2005

I hope someone has a good alternate line on Illinois, maybe like Illiinois -4.5+260. That would be juicy. Illinois has won 36/38 by 5+. :103631605

Every Illinois starter has had a 20+ pt game in the Tourney. Illinois is the more balanced team with MORE weapons. Now, NC has the single most dangerous weapon in May. But if May doesn't bring it big time I don't think Carolina has much of a chance. Williams and Brown will D up McCants and Felton so don't expect them to get great looks. May have to score 25-30 for NC to have much of a shot. For those who like NC, just play May over points (maybe 20?) and safe yourself juice plus a possible win and NC loss.
