Default UNC -3 = Square.com?

EVERYONE is on this game. 76% is really one sided, yet the lines arent moving, if anything going down mostly.

KU played a much better elite eight team than UNC and everyone forgets how dominant BOTH teams have been. KU get the +3 from playing a ten seed in the elite eight, but they are the more balanced team. Books are BEGGING for UNC action...

Official play = KU +3
Complete and total trap game.

AWJ, thanks for comparing me to a chubby kid in glasses... This isnt a regular game though, this is the final four. And when it looks/smell/feels like a blowout, it usually is... The other way. Especially in big games...

UNC beat Davidson as well so who cares....Louisville was playing great ball and UNC still answered the bell and closed out the game with Louisville trying to make a run. If UNC plays as well as they have been in the tourney they take this game. If they come out flat then KU has a chance.

Just what the books wanted you to think. Do you think Louisville could beat wisconsin by 20?
No way no how.
This is the kind of thinking that gets you buried.

Your referring to KU like their not even in the same league. Isnt KU the consensus pick in most brackets? What happened, did that team die? No, KU/UNC are very very equal teams.

No, the kind of thinking that will get you buried is your inclination to call everything a "trap." Kansas is the play solely because the majority of bets have come in on UNC and the line hasn't moved off '3?' If the line moves to 4 before tip, is UNC now the play? As usual, you're talking out of your ass.

Yes, Louisville could beat Wisky (the most overrated team in the country all season, as has been stated by myself and others on this forum for months) by 20. But what does that have to do with anything?

Could Lousiville lose by 7 to Western Michigan (as Davidson did)? Who cares? It's such narrow-minded thinking and has nothing to do with tonight's outcome.

I think they are more equal than my post made it sound, you are correct there. I just think UNC is playing at a much higher level than they did during the regular season coming into this game...I think at the same time KU is playing about the same as it has all year. So unless KU picks up their game or UNC comes back down to earth I think UNC will win.
