They're 16-1 at home and have recently knocked off Purdue and Illinois at Pauley. No one has won both games on the LA road trip this year. No problem being a dog, should motivate the boys.

Not so fast my friends. I live in Las Vegas & I’m giving the Huskers a 98.02468% chance for victory.

Nebraska fans know football as well as there is in the country but got damn are most of us clueless how college basketball works. Please starting watching other teams and conferences. Learn how college basketball works. I thought by now ant this point in the season some of you would get it.
Also Nebraska was favored -1.5 a few hours ago against a team 16-1 at home.

On2 said:I know college basketball and I know betting lines. Yeah we opened as a favorite, but bettors move lines, and we are not favored at any sports book currently. I think we are going to win, but I was just saying that no other top ten team is an underdog when playing an unranked team, no matter where they are playing. Illinois was just a 6 point favorite recently at UCLA.Nebraska fans know football as well as there is in the country but got damn are most of us clueless how college basketball works.

You are the easy money most times by doing such simple analysis. They are great at home and bad on the road. They are not far outside the rankings and can play with most teams (somewhat) if playing well. Maybe we cover and maybe we don’t, but do some homework.

Unfortunately I think we drop tonight’s game in a hard fought loss. Not much in our favor, but I’m sure this bunch will give it hell.

Cornicator said:Nebraska opened as favorites. The lined had already moved to UCLA being the favorite. My point was more Vegas is going to set lines based on their analytics. But Vegas isn’t always “right”. If they were always “right”. wouldn’t most every team’s record ATS be in the 1 game above .500 or 1 game below .500 range? Most every year there is a college football team that is in the 11-2 .. 12-2 ATS. Or the opposite.. 2-10 ATS. There is money to be made in sports betting. I personally don’t partake because I’m not disciplined enough and / or I let emotions get involved. Or out having a couple cocktails with the buddies and that gives me the “courage” to be stupid 😂. I do like following it though.Actually all the analytics have Nebraska favored.

Even when UCLA isn’t good, they are hard to beat at home.If this were in Lincoln, we would win because UCLA isn’t good on the road.
