Is Missouri scaring anyone tonight? The first time I looked at it I liked it, but now its starting to scare me. What does Saint Louis have this year?,
Missouri?

That's what I'm wondering. . . I've already played Missouri and now the line is actually moving down! After looking at the schedule and games that both teams have played, I don't understand how this line could be so low.
Call me a sucker, but if the line keeps coming down, I'll probably continue to add to my wager on Missouri like a fool!

You can toos records out the wind when these two teams meet on the basketball court. It is a huge rivalry in the state of Missouri, and St Louis takes this game very seriously. I feel that Missouri should have enough to handle them, but I'm staying away from it as I think there are better plays out there. Good luck fellas..
One lesson I learned from last season was to be VERY conscious of lines that seemed too good to be true. The usual culprit is the always-enticing road fav.
It never fails...the lines come out...I say damn that looks good...I lay money...and pow...right in keyster. I already let it happen again this year with Oregon the other night vs. UMASS. I saw Oregon play Louisville at home and they looked like world-beaters. Yet, first time out on the road (as a fav.) they get beat straight up by Montanna.
It's hard to lay off road favs sometimes because sometimes you can get a cash cow. For example, last year UK came into Columbia to play the Gamecocks as only 1 point favs. I KNEW this was too low and nailed it as my biggest play of the year. Sure enough, UK won by 30+ points. But more times than not I ended up getting screwed on the road fav.
My advice is simple...beware of the road fav. There will be times this year when I will take the road fav, even knowing its probably gonna cost me money...but sometimes I just can't help myself.

I would only add to be ESPECIALLY aware of the small road favorite (5 or less).
Those home doggies, especially in non-conference affairs, really seem to bite.
Good luck!

i think the line is low due to the fact it is such a rivalry and st louis will take this came very seriously only thing is st louis will try as hard as they can and it wont matter. st louis lost to ark little rock in the home opener saw some tape of practices after that st louis coach absolutely chewed some arse. st louis lost all the big guys in the middle last year hard to replace it i do agree this looks to good to be true but sometimes it seems like they do that to try and get you to think to much. good luck whatever you play another thing i heard on the radio a little while ago is they replaced the goals at the savvis center the old ones were junk basically and they bought brand new ones and put them up yesterday so st louis nor missouri will really have to get a feel for the goals.
