Nothing.....
After looking at every game on the board tonight- NBA, NHL, and College hoops, there is nothing that stands out. That being said, this is a gaming website so I have dug deep to provide loyal readers with a diamond in the rough. Duke -35 over Gardner-Webb. How did I stumble upon this "hidden gem"? My trusted proprietary math model spit this one out. Using the one common opponent Charlotte, Duke won by 42 points while Gardner-Webb lost by 29. Does this mean Duke should win by north of 70 points? Absolutely not but anytime you lay this type of wood it makes for a great night of fun. In essence, you are "spotting" a team a full half with 35 points, so every missed layup, travelling call, foul,etc. becomes a big deal. Throughout the years I have broken more household appliances by playing games like this. Many a coach has been berated for only being up 20 points at halftime. My advice, win or lose playing this game is the right thing to do. In the end, hope the Duke bench can outscore Gardner-Webb and win a 102-60 type of game.
