It was 2nd game after the Noel injury and the first after we beat the hell out of them. Far from confidence in the cats With vegas at that time

All about that power rating and uk's was/is better than vols, plus bettors hate to take other side in uk games, esp at home...bet over time it shows up that cats are poor against spread

I get that but also those power rankings account for Noel being on the court. Vegas doesnt

Good catch. My mistake. Not on purpose. Vols -1 or higher would be my bet.

Well if I was a betting man, which I am no longer and if I were looking at the game objectively, which I won't, I would take the Vols at even money; and more importantly I think most of the country would. So to get the money even, I think Vegas tilts to the Vols ever so slightly.

For practical purposes this game is a push, but home court is worth 5 points so if Vols are 2 point favs, I think that is about right. Mizzou is probably a 3-5 pt fav on a neutral floor and a 5-7 pt fav in Columbia. JMO

We're talking about the opener, right? The closing line may be something different once it starts getting played.

I never claimed to be willing to bet three. You are on the record we won't be favored. Why change?

And you're on the record as saying by 3, so why change?

You said 3, I said I think it'll be pick em or Missouri by 1...so meet in the middle and lay some money on it big boy? Middle would be Tennessee by 1.5 you gonna take it?

I was dead wrong. I will be shocked if we aren't favored by tip. We will be heavy with the public IMO.



Can you link that KPom rating of 199?

Nobody was saying anything about at the tip, you said Tennessee by 3 at open...I tried to tell you it would be pick em or Missouri by 1, and by golly that's what it was, the end. I'll drop it now and not post 100 different sites with the line that all say you're wrong.

You see I admit when I am wrong. The facts proved me wrong and I have admitted it like a Man. Every passing hour that link isn't posted here the more I realize that teamrankings.com is the only real ratings either of us has seen today. Nearly 12hours have past and you still haven't produced your evidence that teamrankings is wrong. Still waiting for that link or you being a man and admitting you were wrong!

And once again you apparently missed my post in which I said I was wrong...so 12 hours ago I said I was wrong basically yet now you're proven completely wrong (good thing we didn't bet like I tried to get you to) and you wanna bring up the past for some reason.

I've said I was wrong, if you want me to say it again I will, I was wrong...you were wrong about the tempo which was the point...and you're wrong about the line like we all tried to tell you.

I'm not gonna waste my time with you looking for more things to argue about because clearly you have an issue when proven wrong that you result to bringing up previous incidents....:hi:
