SKINAR: GOOD REPLY. I MYSELF NEVER TAKE THOSE GAMES THAT JUST SEEM TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. A BOOKIE IS NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU A GOOD DEAL ON A GAME BECAUSE HE WANTS TO SEE YOU WIN. THEIR LIKE CAR SALESMEN(NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE IN THE BUSINESS), THEY JUST WANTO MAKE YOU HAPPY AND GIVE YOU THE BEST DEAL IN TOWN.

$$ just another winner. Believe that is 80% for the year. May not see anymore this year. Keep watching those + 36 or more there looking like a winner to. Not 80% but above pay out.

ESPN showed the UConn coach talking to his team several days before the game:

"You guys are 46 pt (actually 44; the coach didn't catch the line move LOL) underdogs. That's the ultimate lack of respect."

I think its a good motivational tool for a coach to use, and it seems to work w/UConn since they've been great in the role of big doggie. I also heard Bowden mention the spread in a recent post game press conference. Let's face it; they're aware of it, but its obviously a bigger motivator for those who are disrespected.

DJV--you're probably right. 95% of these plays come in non-conf games, except when Miami has their annual "grudge matches" with the Big East powers Temple, Rutgers, and in the future, UConn.
