The Early Line URI vs. UMASS

[luke]

The opening line on this game is a very healthy URI - 10 1/2. That is
an encouraging line. I expect URI to win this one and possibly cover.
would be nice to see Berry have another good game.

Late season UMess games, at home, gives me nightmares.....hope this is different......

First image in my mind, Ulmer screen.

The play that might have cost us an NCAA bid......

Anyway, we win tonight, but don't cover.

10.5 points without Hassan is a lot. Hinds will be a problem.

[RAM67]

Sorry I watched that for the 500th time.

[hrstrat57]

I refuse to watch it

[Rhodymob05]

Like a bad break up, the past is the past. NO CLASS UMASS GO RHODY

[TruePoint]

Where is Matt Glass now? I hope he is homeless.

[RAM67]

When some of the posters on KB (you know who you are), question why some of us think the officials never seem to give us a fair shake, this is one of the moments, out of many, that comes to mind. This was about as bad a non call as you can get.

Maybe if Hurley wasn't such a baby on the sidelines they would have called that screen a foul!

Baron was the coach at the time....

That's the joke

I am sure that you are aware that I am talking about a history at URI, and not just Dan's time.

Haha thank you TP, that was indeed the joke!

[NYGFan_Section208]

^ Are you sure Hurley still can't be blamed for that? There has to be a connection, right?

[luke]

The spread is now URI - 10. URI covers.

Matt Glass used the HIT STICK in Madden on Monty!
REFS THIS IS BASKETBALL
I remember that play very well. If we won that we would have sealed our spot in the dance, at least a lot of bracketologists said so. I remember on college gameday that morning Digger Phelps predicted we'd win and finally get over the hump...
We should've trounced them that day, But Chris Lowe dominated us and Matt Glass shot himself out of a cannon at poor ol Ulmer and boom that was it

Have you (1) laid points with Rhody or (2) won a bet so far this season?

I was waiting for someone to call me out on this and here is the rundown of my 'bets' this year. I don't actually bet these games unless I'm in Vegas, which I haven't been for a Rhody game this year. For me, I just like playing along and seeing how I do. I like money way too much to be a gambler, but when in Vegas.

I was in Vegas for the NCAA Tournament first weekend last year (would highly recommend making the trip for that weekend) and URI killed me when I laid the points on them against Stanford. I must subconsciously still be salty about it.

TCU +6 Push
Maryland -5.5 W
URI -11.5 (Rider) W
Providence +3 W
URI -8.5 (Houston) W
Nebraska -2 W
URI -7 (Iona) L
Brown +7 W
St. Louis +12 L
Richmond +4 L
URI +3 (St. Joe's) L
St. Bona -1 W
LaSalle +15 W
GW -5 L
Fordham +11.5 L
St. Joe's +3 W
UMass +3 W
LaSalle +7 L
George Mason +13 L
Dayton -1 L
UMass -10

So you are correct, it's been a while. I also started the season hot and have gone ice cold. I haven't been quite as tuned in as the season has progressed. I watch as many games as I can but it's not appontment viewing for me at this point.

Anyways, I wanted to make a contest out of it on this board but nobody got into it.

[TruePoint]

It's cool you kept track of it. Maybe we can make it a board-wide contest next season. I was just busting you, but Rhody has been pretty good about blowing bad teams out at home.

I think that sounds like a great idea. Will generate some great discussion. I used to like wagering, but...after a while...like many..... figured out there's a reason Vegas stays in business. Looking forward to such a contest next year!

[NYGFan_Section208]
