That's part of it. Not really a guess. I have seen enough Tiger playoff basketball under Joe Sigler to know he will not keep his starters in a playoff blow out. Got bigger fish to fry later. A betting line is always based on what the final score will be, regardless of pulling starters or not. We can speculate what the score would be if Silsbee played their starters the entirety even if they were up 35. But I think we all know that will not happen.

Silsbee beat the #3 and #4 seed (Jasper and Lumberton) by an average of 35 points a game. Liberty tied for 3rd in their district. I think the line at 36 is fair. But I could see it being 40 before game time.

All that info is posted up top in Bi-District schedule thread.

What's the over/under? Or did you mean you will take Silsbee giving 36?

Hemphill 59 Shelbyville 56

Washington and Furr flipped a coin for #1 seed. Washington won the flip.

The line Silsbee -36

Not sure losing by 28 points would be considered an upset.

Sells finished with 16 points last night. He had 29 Tuesday night. Connell had 19. Kountze did well inside the first half. Buna had a 21-18 rebounding edge. Second half, not so much. Buna out rebounded Kountze 22-12. (43-30 for the game) Both teams did not turn it over much. Kountze had 7, Buna 8. Kountze was 6/28 from 3 point. Buna 6/18 Buna went 8/16 from FT line. Kountze 10/14 Foul count: Kountze 14, Buna 9 In both games, the better team won. Kudos to Coach Wilson and the Buna team. They have had their backs against the wall for a couple of weeks now and rose to the occasion. Basically been a playoff game for them the last 6 games.
