Gravy,

Coming from an Arizona guy, I can't understand why anyone would play the Arizona game under 138!!! The Arizona/Butler game will be a shootout pure and simple. Arizona has stepped up the 'D' in the last month, but not significant enough to where their game total should fall below 140! I really hope you check into this a little more. . . good luck if you decide to play the under, but I think it would be a huge mistake

Gravy,

Just to add to my post, the only game where Arizona fell below 140 in the past month was to Oregon State. HOWEVER, the Beavers had only 8 players for the game and slowed the game down on purpose. I believe Butler likes to run and I'm sure they won't be as slow and time consuming as Oregon State was.

Hope I've been of some help to you. . .

alot of us have been getting burned lately...so i am leaning on some possible unexpected outcomes....like today..i didnt post but had st joes +11..usc +2...also geo st +14.5, with hampton +14.5..some easy games to cap....like today UCLA at -4..and ky at -7.....and some more difficult ones too......sundays easy one looks like the gatora at -3...but i think thats a public gen consensus...if one should decide to dissect the game..temple +3 probably would be the play...?

you are starting to sway me......but last time these 2 teams met Az won 72-60.....close to 138,,,and in a close game the foul shots will push the total over.....138..

Gravy,

Remember that Arizona was a completely different team in December!!! Now that all of the distractions are gone and the players are healthy, this team is playing much better. . . especially on offense.

Gravy,

Hopefully it works out like I believe it will. . . just remember one more thing: Arizona used a full-court defense against Eastern Illinois in order to speed up the game and force turnovers. . . I assume that Lute will do the same thing again if Butler decides to play a slow-tempo game.

Good luck!

I think I'm gonna' pay attention to the Line move on the total and go w/ the flow.

At ABC, it opened at 138 and is now at 137.

Tip Off is a mere 10 hours from now.
