given recent play and that they have been in it for the past 8-10 games, that does seem like a good bet to take

We are winning. Should have beat them in Dallas.

How was the Cuse crowd at the FSU game in Charlotte? Lots of CNY transplants down there and hoping there would be a Cuse crowd against SMU.

WHAT???? 8.5????

Oh great, now we’ll lose for sure. Nice to be respected, though.

This sounds too high to me. First off, FSU just beat SMU on Saturday. Secondly, as I mentioned in the FSU gameday thread early yesterday morning (when I predicted the win I might add), we are peaking at the right time. The streak of 5 consecutive games that I referenced where we have had double-digit leads is now up to 6 straight. Lastly, we shot 2-14 from three last night (14%) and 22-32 from the line (54.5%) -- I think odds are very good that we improve on these numbers tonight.

How is Eddie going to be on back-to-back games

This is the question. Can his back hold up without any rest days. He was a monster last night, and I think what most people expected all season out of him.

8.5 is a waste. Moneyline or nothing. If we make 5+ 3’s we win.

Better turnout than any other team so far. By far. Still nothing crazy.

I was expecting the line to come in at +7.0 (the KP figure). (SMU is 10.5 pts/100 possessions better than us on a neutral court)

Surprised to see it come in at +8.5 (although not totally outside expectations). I assume they add a few points for the "rest"/"no rest" factor.

He's looked pretty healthy. I do think they should use the zone around TV timeouts to steal minutes here and there for him.

Zone looked fairly good when used yest…
