Boilers 79
NW 70
Boilers survive the slapping and missed holding calls.....
Very! I've felt like @ NW has been about as bad as it gets over the last few years.It's a sad state of affairs, that you just know abhorrent referring is on its way tonight.
I saw that too, but I haven't seen any new news come out that I can find.Did something happen? Line dropped to -5 at multiple sources in the last hour.
And unfortunately I can't see any player props since IL doesn't allow for them in IL school games. To me this would be because someone (not named Edey) is out for Purdue. Or it could be a $100,000 bet on Northwestern.I saw that too, but I haven't seen any new news come out that I can find.
It allows them in KY, and I didn't see any players odds out of the ordinary for any category. Edey's points were over 20.5 at -125.And unfortunately I can't see any player props since IL doesn't allow for them in IL school games.

What the heck? I'm in on that. BTFUDid something happen? Line dropped to -5 at multiple sources in the last hour.
This is a different Purdue team than the group that visited Northwestern last February. Collins figured out that if he could completely mug Edey, Purdue was very limited in how it could respond. I believe that this Purdue team is different. I also think that with Northwestern losing Audige and Purdue adding Jones, the relative athleticism of the two teams has significantly shifted.
If I was one to bet on college basketball games, which I am not, I would give the points and go with Purdue.

Maybe the refs were announced and one of them is notorious for swallowing his whistle?I can't find anything about anyone being out. 2 1/2 points that quickly is a lot. Something smells and I don't like it.....Hopefully it was just a lot of money coming in on NW, but that doesn't seem likely with a -7.5 line does it?
They probably released who the referees are.Did something happen? Line dropped to -5 at multiple sources in the last hour.
Yeah very odd. Not sure what happened there. And, not that I am, but looking at player props on DK...you can't bet on Braden, but you can on Zach, Fletch and Lance. Is there a reason for that?I can't find anything about anyone being out. 2 1/2 points that quickly is a lot.

That's why I said someone not named Edey. For that very point. Would probably go to a pick in that case.Edey out would move the line more than 2.5. I am guessing its just the action.
Yeah no doubt. But couldn't bet on Braden in the Maui Invitational either, so I don't think he's out. He wouldn't be anyways after that almost triple double and was healthy. Maybe the team got caught after curfew smokin like XJ and others two years ago in EvanstonBraden out would hurt a ton, he might be as important to our success as Zach

Eventhough legal in AZ, I dont bet, so thanks for saying he wasnt available for prop bets in Maui,.....big relief. I have a huge date coming up with UofA where my daughter goes to school, need to be number 1 and 2 so we can watch the game together and battle for the #1 ranking. Be a cool family moment for me.Yeah no doubt. But couldn't bet on Braden in the Maui Invitational either, so I don't think he's out.

that dude HATES Purdue. From X in 2022 "Purdue is 3-13 over the last 3 years with Courtney Green, 60-19 without him. 5 of the 7 losses this year were with Green. "Courtney Greene, anyone? But the refs generally aren't announced /known until maybe an hour from tip-off
For sure. I'm going to that game, so it'd be great to see a 1 v 2 matchup. It's going to be tougher for us to stay up there than Zona, since we have more games than they do before we meet.Eventhough legal in AZ, I dont bet, so thanks for saying he wasnt available for prop bets in Maui,.....big relief.

Might want to re-word. We didn't cover the spread in those games.that dude HATES Purdue. From X in 2022 "Purdue is 3-13 over the last 3 years with Courtney Green, 60-19 without him. 5 of the 7 losses this year were with Green. "
Moving back up a bit to 5.5. I imagine by now we would have heard of any bad news.
Was from some account on twitter... but which games are you talking about?Might want to re-word. We didn't cover the spread in those games.

Purdue on its way to its 3-pete AGAIN. If accomplished Purdue will have done it twice and Ohio State once. No other big has EVER done it. Purdue is the only team in the big to have been ranked 1st three times in a row as well. Purdue has a commanding lead in home and home over the sisters down south. Enough of a lead that it is highly unlikely that lead will perish before all of us do. Purdue has a winning record against all the Big Teams. No other Big program can begin to match those accomplishments.It's the Big Ten opener tonight and Purdue is looking to repeat as league champ for the first time since 1994-96.
I want Myles to get it together as well. Right now he sees ball, but not ball man. He gets lost away from the ball and is a bit slow to react. Right now Matt has mostly used him as just spotting up on O and praying on D. I would rank him right beside Woody Austin on D early in his freshman year. Great offensive players that never learned the D as well as many. Woody was at Richmond and that should NEVER have happened. Myles, could get by with his athleticism at his school.Speaking of athletic ability, I want to see Heide and Colvin get meaningful minutes. Getting them up to speed by the tourney will be huge. Both can shoot, both have length for their position 2/3 and both are ++athletes. If that means less Morton or even a few less minutes for Loyer, so be it.
Been There...Done That !PU -7.5 I have a Christmas Party tonight, so I'll be the one over in the corner watching my phone all night!! Boiler UP!

If it's Green, Edey needs to trip and flatten him !Courtney Greene, anyone? But the refs generally aren't announced /known until maybe an hour from tip-off
