This tourney is only bad for us in the sense all 3 teams will lower our RPI and if we get stuck playing UC Riverside (with a loss to BU), that is a killer......

As for lines on the game, who knows? I never understood why we don't have lines particularly since the Service Academies would draw action. (no one gambles more than a drunken sailor)

I dont know why there is never a line on Bucknell.... There were lines on HC in the San Juan Shootout.

Maybe they learned their lesson after I slammed them on the Kansas game (12-1 on the moneyline.. :-p)

Anyway, the line against Duke will be about 17-20 points.

Business aside, I'm not all that concerned about this tournament. Boston's leading scorer is a freshman and their offense is prone to sputtering. Against the Bison D, that spells trouble. As for Santa Clara, I don't see anything approaching a quality effort (let alone a qality win) on their schedule and the "tune up" against UC Riverside will do nothing positive for them against Bucknell. We will not be playing UC Riverside so I wont go there.

So basically, I see it as our tournament to lose.
