With conference games now underway, Gambling911.com delve into NCAA Men's College Basketball betting Thursday night.
We went 1-1, kicking off with a Memphis victory over Florida Atlantic.
Tyrese Hunter scored 20 points and PJ Haggerty added 19 as No. 21 Memphis beat Florida Atlantic 90-62 on Thursday night in the American Athletic Conference opener for both teams.
Dain Dainja had 16 points for the Tigers (11-3), who have won four of five. Colby Rogers scored 11 points and Moussa Cisse finished with 11 rebounds and two blocks.
The Tigers never trailed after opening the game on a 14-2 spurt. Consecutive 3-pointers from Hunter and Haggerty keyed the early surge.
The real shocker came with Illinois having its first real road test of the season in Oregon.
We were backing the Ducks (again this week, sigh).
Illinois looked like the much fresher team here despite the long trip cross country.
The betting line on Oregon actually moved up to -4.5 with so many questioning if the Illini even had the talent, let alone the wherewithal to play on the road having not had much experience doing so this season.
