royalfan Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 preliminary opener. Sounds about right. Quote
PimpMario Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 This team needs to finally put together a complete game. Even in most of our wins we didn't play well in one aspect or another. If we play a complete game and play well we could beat PSU by 20. Quote
throwback Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 NU is 5-0 against the number at home in B1G games this season, and 10-2 against the number overall in B1G games. This is the biggest favorite we've been all season in a B1G game, though. In fact it matches the biggest favorite in a league game that we've been since joining the B1G. The other games are: 2/09/2013 vs PSU in Lincoln - NU -5.5 - W 67-53 1/11/2012 vs PSU in Lincoln - NU -5.5 - W 70-58 I like the way those numbers match up as a good sign for Thursday.

Norm Peterson Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 I hate to be the broken record but I think back to what I've said probably several times, just as a way to conceptualize this. And that is that if we're good enough, we're good enough. I think odds and statistics underestimate the talent on this team and the improvement we've seen since the beginning of the season. Provided we don't have a let down against these guys, I want to see us go out and punch 'em in the mouth from the opening tip and not let up. We are better than these guys. Oh, yeah, sure, they have a couple of nice players. But we have a couple of nicer ones. GATA!!! Quote

royalfan Posted February 20, 2014 Author Report Posted February 20, 2014 preliminary opener. Sounds about right. Just curious, where do you get your numbers from? A live lines feed from a place like therx.com is a good free place. I am not exactly sure where they get their sometimes innacurate opening line information. The real opener to me is when bookmaker, pinnacle, 5 dimes etc open up for wagering. Line opened at 5 where I could actually be it, a while after that mystery opener. That mystery opener is probably good enough for purposes of discussion here though. Quote
