A good capper posted this and I couldn't believe the line, so I jumped on it immediately:
Gonzaga -2.5 vs. Wash St. (-103) - 3 units @ Pinnacle
I live in Seattle and have seen both these teams play UW the last few years. WSU is not in Gonazaga's league. Gonzaga has a great team this year despite the setback to Butler in NY. They just beat Texas easily, no way they lose this game, imo.

Gonzaga has been great the last few years. I thought they'd struggle this year without Morrison but they continue to play well...

Haha. I sent an e-mail around to my buddies here who I go to games with and they couldn't believe the line either. I put down a few bets for them, so I'm going to have LOTS of people pissed if the Zags don't cover 
edit: Line moved down to -2. WTF?! WSU likes to slow it down, and I know the crowd will be rocking since it's a rivalry game, but STILL.

Gonzaga with around 80% of the public on them.
Line started at Gonzaga -3.5 and moved down to -2. Careful.

Too late man! Public's gotta be right once in awhile A capper you know liked this at -3... I wouldn't have even seen it if it wasn't for him. The reverse line move makes me very nervous though. No Gonzaga injuries that I can find, only negative info seems to be how pumped WSU and their fans are for this game. I still like it. But now I'm nervous. Thanks lee

I've done a little more research into this game. Looks like a sandwich game, with WSU in between two ranked opponents.
Uh...wow. That's a lotta damn reverse line movement.
And yeah: I saw his thread. Unfortunately, with what I've seen, I can't really take that side. In fact, I'll be opposite you tonight, zook.

I respect that, but at least bet big so one of us will win big I'm telling you though, Wazzu is not in the same class as Gonzaga. Gonzaga will have to crap the bed big-time to lose this game. That being said, a good UW team did it TWICE last year to WSU. And those were two of WSU's four conference wins. Anything's possible...

awww; poor Jeff.
Just remember when you luckboxed your way into $2000 with Joey Porter's interception. That'll make you feel better.

UW is overranked and overrated. Their home court advantage is huge, but they haven't looked great this year against even bad teams at home (with the exception of the Portland St. game Saturday).
LSU M/L vs. UW (+101) - 1 unit @ Pinnacle
I'll be at the game, screaming for the Dawgs, but I don't think they win this game.

This could be the best I've ever felt about losing a bet. The Huskies dominated LSU tonight! Damn, I REALLY didn't think they had it in them. Spencer Hawes is a monster and flat out OWNED Big Baby. Catch the highlights on Sportscenter if you're still awake.
NCAA YTD:
Straight wagers: 0-2
YTD: - 4 units
Think I'd better stay away from the NCAA
