Bet the Blue and Gray: 5-Seed, Here We Come

The Team 58-80 (+9.18u)

  1. Armen 16-18 (+4.93u)
  2. John 8-18 (+4.28u) 👑
  3. Bobby 19-23 (+0.91u)
  4. Jake 15-20 (-0.94u)

Ok, so the Hoyas lost at home the last time around 57-70 against the reintroduced Huskies from the underwhelming state of Connecticut. Ewing has the chance to be undefeated at Gampel Pavilion in his Big East coaching career. Oh, and the game is on CBS. Time to scorch more earth. 

BTW, we all made heavy cash on the Georgetown spread against DePaul. Talk about true easy money.

THE BOARD

Georgetown +9.5

UConn -9.5

O/U 137

Georgetown +375

BEST BETS 

Bobby

Georgetown +9.5 3u

This line feels borderline disrespectful. Your Hoyas have won four of the last five and are somehow expected to lose by a whopping 9.5 points against UConn. Vegas really forgot how hard it is to beat a team twice. Don’t flinch and ride with the Hoyas on their last regular-season game of the year.

Jake

Georgetown +9.5 5u

Georgetown ML +380 .5 u

Feeling gutsy this morning. Last game of the regular season, have to go out with a splash. RJ Cole is a former Kenner League star, and James Bougknight is one of the best guards in the country, but the Hoyas are rolling. UConn has the 3-seed in the Big East locked up, if I had to guess they’re not going to show up focused. Georgetown makes a statement today. The Chu Chu Chudier Bile Train only has one speed, and UConn is not slowing us down. 

Armen 

Georgetown +9.5 2.2u

I don’t know what’s more disgraceful, the fact that John is betting 4.5 units or the fact that Georgetown is almost ten-point underdogs. That doesn’t matter, all that matters is that I have MORE DAMN POINTS. At this point, if you’ve been reading this column for long enough, you should know that I hate statistics, but in the last UConn game the Hoyas’ average deficit was 4.6 points where they never really had a lead and lost by 13. I said this last time and I’ll say it again, thank you UConn for unnecessarily running up the score at the end of the last game. We may not be amazing, but we’re definitely better than a +9.5 line and the bookmakers don’t know that so at this point. All I’m seeing green. Oh and if that doesn’t convince you, let me slaughtering some UConn fan in a quick Twitter argument be a good omen for what’s ahead.

P.s. I was so close to taking the moneyline, but I flipped a coin and the coin told me spread. Maybe that means something too…

John

Georgetown +9.5 4u

Echoing what Bobby said, 9 points? Damn. That being said, the Hoyas and UConn are undoubtedly the two hottest teams in the conference, and while UConn may be more talented, I’ll lay 9 points with the Hoyas and run folks. Give it to me.
