Easily, ECU and USF are godawful and we play them at home. UConn isn't even an average team.
Have you not learned anything watching this team WITH MARTIN. Just so you know, losing Marin was a BAD thing.
They beat SMU and Houston without him so against.this slaw? Yeah they should win.
@UConn is the only game with even a remote chance for a loss.
This is a scrappy group that never gives up. They are short on talent for sure and beating a ranked Houston team will likely be the apex of the season but they do not lack for effort.
No, I'm,not hopping aboard the Tubby Train but I do support the players and their efforts.
That’s my take too. A scrappy team that gives their best effort every night. That’s more than I could say about last years team. This team is one of my favorite teams in years.
Add a true PG and some shooting and we got a pretty good team. Watching Cinci and Tulsa. They are wearing out 3s so far.

UConn is now a 3.5 favorite despite their struggles.
I think Uconn -3.5 is the easiest bet of the day. Of course I also thought Kentucky and Wichita were the 2 gimme’s yesterday. WSU was -8 and up 17 with 1:37 to go. Won by 6.
Yeah, I jumped all over Wichita State -8, then saw the final later. Ouch! I had seen where they were up big at one point, but didn't know about that ending. Double ouch.
Western KY came through for me again though. I thought about going with Nick King and Middle TN over UAB, but didn't pull the trigger, and Middle smoked 'em. I'm on East TN State -2 1/2 today. I want to take the Tigers, but am afraid they'll go back into confused and inept mode, you know, not being obedient, LOL.

Bummed I didn't make this one, it's a three hour drive and I would have gone, but the NYC alums are like herding cats and it's tough to get us together for a road trip.
I made Temple riding solo earlier, but Philly is at least fun and an easy drive.
I hate Hartford and am only going back with another person to keep me from killing everyone in that god forsaken hole.

Never been there, but you've just confirmed what I suspected.

I'm not the guy to ask. I had a very rough consulting gig there a few years ago. It was a very rough go of it.
