I get that, it's just that this game probably has "name recognition" bias..

which would put more money on Memphis.

ESPN is also using a very small sample size of data for their prediction, with both teams basically untested, so lots of uncertainty. I'm not a gambler, but if I was, I wouldn't touch this game at all.

ESPN giving VT 51.5% chance to beat Memphis ** -- VT ChemE 1986 11/23/2021 11:26AM

Which means nothing. Vegas gives a much better prediction. ** -- EDGEMAN 11/23/2021 12:06PM

Sure it does -- Pylons 11/23/2021 6:22PM

No, Vegas sets a line to drive half the money to each side... -- vtbball80 11/23/2021 1:05PM

In general but Vegas takes sides often ** -- Colonel Jessup 11/23/2021 2:03PM

So what? The side to pick is obvious 80-90% of the time. ** -- marcbvtgm 11/24/2021 09:25AM

I trust that far more than any lines ESPN puts out dealing with the ACC ** -- EDGEMAN 11/23/2021 1:49PM
