NYBill Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 While the next 3 games are very close in degree of difficulty, I think this one is the most winnable. The team should be rested and ready to play. The Billikens are getting 6 points - probably pass on that. Marquette lost by something like 8 points on the road here. If you use a 4 point home advantage that game would have been a tie (not literally - but using the 8 point road to home swing - remember this is an art not a science). We lost to Marquette at their place by 1 - so I figure the Billikens deserve more like 8.5 points not the stingy 6 I'm seeing. Still, I'm hoping for an outright win and the Billikens have an uncanny tendency to play up to their opponents ability in big games - so I'll be listening with great hope. I will do the group a favor and point out that Southern Miss is actually getting 2 points from TCU (the game is at TCU). You can send your kids to college on that one!

jjray Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Come on NYBILL ... put some money on SLU! You have the slam dunk money on S. Miss. so a little risk for your Bills wouldn't hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
