Line for KY-KU

[TOMCATS1990]

FANDUEL has KY + 5.5 O/U 150.5. I like the CATS to win outright. Puke is -2.5 against State.

Gonna be extremely difficult on a neutral court with none of our 7 footers playing.

 

[Cowtown Cat]

I like our chances. Absolutely have to have Thiero playing, though. Don’t think we can steal minutes with Burks in this one. I like Burks, but he is super raw right now. He’ll be eaten alive by KU.

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Also, run the piss out of HD. Put him in multiple ball screens every single possession. Run and push pace every time we get the ball. I would actually zone this team just to see how it goes. They can’t shoot.

23/49 from 3 through 2 games, and that’s with our walk ons playing the last 6 minutes of both games. Not too terrible.

This x 100! Make Hunter play D and run their ass off

And there it is. Can't have a decent discussion without the unwanted jailhawk goober's comments.

 

[Aike]

I would bet that will move to around +4/+4.5.

But maybe not with all of our bigs still out?

Also wonder about Thiero’s availability. Going to be hard to guard them for 40 minutes with 7 bodies.

Sounds like Thiero is a game time decision but will probably go.

We’ll see how well they shoot when they actually play somebody. How’d they shoot against Illinois?

I agree

 

[runt#69]

Still giving this young Cats' team a mulligan in the Kansas game. House money rides. I am looking for Thiero being good to go, however. Plus, I like the fact that Kansas gives our young Cats a marquee name team to lace them up against. I look forward to these guys putting it together and playing an "A" game against top teams. Perhaps the Kansas game will be the first of many such "A" games.

we shall see

Go Big Blue !

How’d yall shoot in your warm up games?

 

[bucsrule8872]

How’d yall shoot in your warm up games?

The KU board is that way. >>>>

See your way out.

 

[BBNinSC]

This is a game where Edwards can show he’s a lottery pick and be the best player on the floor

 

[LetDueceLoose97]

The tip-off time is gonna kill me. Rough on a 33-year-old.

 

[CalCat57]

Lol. Yeah that will happen.

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Lol. Yeah that will happen.

Well, if Cal were smart, he would zone them. Lol

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Why are there sooooo many KU fans on here? Good Lord. 🤦‍♂️

 

[Mdnerd]

Well, if Cal were smart, he would zone them. Lol

That would be a “do what it takes to win” mentality. Cal’s pride would never allow for that.

We are going down hard in this one. We don’t have the transcendent freshmen to win an early game like this.

 

[G-PIP]

Only problem with that is a freshman can be a lottery pick and still not the best player on the floor – maybe not even close. But every now and then, that high level of athleticism or potential that made an underdeveloped player still in need of maturity and experience a projected lottery pick, peaks out and surprises. Let’s hope that happens Tuesday. It’s possible. I think Edwards’ play is certainly ahead of most freshmen.

 

[Smashcat]

Well, if Cal were smart, he would zone them. Lol

 

[Camhawk2012]

KU by 5.
Hunter will have 19 pts.

 

[Boyd94]

Hunter with 5 fouls Cats by 19.

 

[LetDueceLoose97]

Lots of unsold tickets left. 10:00 PM ET or later tips are a product of Satan.

 

[WildmanWilson]

We lose by 20.

Blows my mind how many big program fans wander over to our board on a daily basis. I mean, come on, you're the "almighty" KANSAS, surely there's enough activity on your board to keep you busy?

 

[Bluegrass79]

Dude its the same ol Dickerson we beat last year in London. I aint worried bout him. He will get a few. Dont foul when he does.
Stop the other positions... You win this game Kentucky!

 

[catzfanjim]

How’d yall shoot in your warm up games?

How many Kansas players have been arrested so far this year?

 

[Louis_Skunt]

Kansas wins by 15. No way we win without 1 big guy.. and it could get ugly

 

[cmallory]

Seems we always get the late game

Just wait 10 yrs. I have trouble staying awake anyways bc I work a swing shift schedule. Looks like I'm gonna need an energy drink instead of cold beer.

Or almost 25 Anyway I've been knee deep in football and haven't much of our scrimmage/ real games . Same coach , my expectations are low .

piques out?
pekes out?

 

[CatOfDaVille]

So back to the subject of sports betting, who do we like in the games tomorrow night?

Fanduel currently has the lines for KU/UK locked, but we were still +5.5 when I looked last night.

As much as I want to bet on us to cover, I see KU beating us by 7-10 points.

I'll take KU -5.5 and Duke -2.5. Not touching the over/unders personally.

I’m actually going Michigan State. Just a gut feeling even though I lean Duke’s ML with Kansas’ ML.

Neither, actually. The idiom "peeks out" was what I was going for.

 

[Eagles_Ball]

Worse on a 48 yr old. But I'm semi thankful. I coach in MO. Our jamboree is tomorrow night. Should make it home for tip though. Just gonna be a rough alarm Wednesday morning.

 

[TOMCATS1990]

+7 now people loading up on KU

 

[TOMCATS1990]

If KY can dictate the pace of the game and make open shots I like our chances.
