I thought it would two or three points higher. I think Iowa is a really good value at -5.5, but it will probably be Iowa -6 or higher when the online sites release their lines.
If Harris has an off night it will get ugly. We need to do whatever we can to shut him down.
He is pretty slick and skillful, but if they are going to call fouls of us when he elbows us going to the basket, a couple of slams to the floor HARD to make him miss the bucket and also make him think. If we are going to be called for ticky-tacky fouls this game, let's make them really count, no basket and opponent on the floor, slow getting up.....
Just my personal opinion, that's how we used to play it when I was a young Lad.....

twenties, get serious, we were using peach baskets nailed to a telephone pole.....
I remember, as a young Lad at St. Cathages elementary school in Philadelphia, after a violent blizzard, we would get all the lads on the block and build a wall all the way across the street, house to house, no cars could use the streets anyway. Then the Punks on the next blocks would try to take the Wall. Iceballs were flying......

Putting the twenties aside for a second, I don't understand why we try to cleanly block a shot, get slammed to the ground and get called for a foul. Put the Thug Punks on the floor, knock the ball out of their hands and slam them so hard, they are very slow to get up, same as they are doing to us.....
That is how BBall is being played in 2014, surprised you haven't noticed it. Some have, I am certain. It always irritates me to receive a soft touch foul while getting knocked to the floor, have the opponent make the basket and go the the foul line....
Perhaps you have been paying attention to the game and have observed this, otherwise, put the drinks down and watch the game, my dear friend.....

Damn I was just calling you old as a joke.
To bad Payne will not be playing cause he's got something waiting for him. PAYBACK TIME. Turn the bull loose!Wild Bull McCabe will be pumped up for this one, Atomic....
He could be very important in the scrums under the basket.....
