Surprised by that line. I expected to be 4.5 dogs. Obviously the game is winnable if we are hitting 3s and can stay out of foul trouble. Both teams have a weak bench so foul trouble could determine this one.

Iowa isn’t a 1 seed on accident. Expecting them to be a 4-5 point dog to a 3 seed is….uh?

Not that crazy, really.

#3 UCONN -3.5 over #1 USC

Iowa is missing a pretty important player from when they built the resume of a 1 seed.

Money is coming in on Iowa. -2 now. I thought it would shift the other way pretty quickly.

Kim Mulkey probably put 2.5 million to move the line so she could sell THE DISRESPECT!

The LSU money line is a decent value given that this one is a 50/50 proposition, imo.

It’s a great value. Maybe I’m too pessimistic, but I’d put this 60/40 against Iowa.

I concur.

Also like Angel Reese over 12.5 rebs...she has had 11+ for 10 straight games and tonight will mean a little more and the way Iowa plays there are more rebounds to be had.

I will be heavily emotionally hedging this game, as I have all season, resulting in major losses.

I just looked, and since correctly picking Oregon to win the PAC 12 tourney, and given all that money back and much more with 17 consecutive losing bets. This doesn’t count a couple I still have open, Bama winning the men’s side and UCONN the women’s.

ML is +110 and +2 is -110. That is not wide enough to justify betting ML instead of taking the 2 points IMO.
