Rutgers vs Pitt spread

[Scangg]

Anyone see a spread? Or want to make a prediction?

I'm friends with a bunch of Pitt kids out here in San Diego and we are talking smack and about to wager but don't see anything listed yet

I am thinking Pitt will be favored by a few points

 

[BillyC80]

I believe Pitt be favored. I’ll guess by 5 points (could be a little higher).

I think Pitt will be favored by 2 or 3 points because they will be the home team.

Pitt -3.5

Illinois -8
Minnesota -3

I haven't cheated (i.e. looked at kenpom) but I would say Pitt -7

 

[toby83]

Just looked. somebody above me nailed it but did he cheat?

 

[BillyC80]

If the spread is 3.5 then I’ll say he peeked.

 

[zebnatto]

Hmph. Woulda guessed 6 or 7.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

I didn’t cheat, I just looked it up on the internet.

Surprised it’s only 3.5. That’s like a pickem on a neutral court. Pitt already has a win against a ranked team and we don’t, unless you count SFA :Wink:

Thanks... Looked on a few sites no line was listed. Basically the line I thought... Rutgers wins outright though

Sagarin’s has the game as essentially a 2 or 3 point win for Pitt. #66 Rutgers (80.48), #85 Pitt (78.87). Home team gets 4 rating points. Our 80.48 versus Pitt’s 82.87 (78.87 + 4). 2.39 difference.
