Indiana +200 on the moneyline. What do you guys think?

I think I'll play some plus value on a 30 point loss.

Who had the over for UConn/Marquette? (raises hand)

I thought hard about it but the deeper these tournaments go on back to back days the more I fail at O/U.

 

I was looking great on the Under for FAU/Temple....then Temple scores 21 points in the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half (barfs).

I'm thinking about sprinkling a little on Keisei going crazy today. Maybe 25 points or 4+ threes. I know TAMU is fast and physical, but the Keisei storyline seems made for a first round takeover.

Probably a solid play. After watching SEC defenses get sliced and diced yesterday, good chance that continues today

I bet the ML on every underdog today minus 16 seeds, 15 seeds, and Yale (Auburn is a sleeper title pick IMO). Helped that DraftKings was handing out 25% boosts like candy. So far NW and Clemson doing me well and UAB nearly pulled it out.

I just absolutely hate sports. I really do.

Big oops missing out on Yale, but Utah St, GCU, and JMU (who I accidentally bet on twice) closed out a strong day and as I was saying I just absolutely love sports.

It ruins sports. Always has, always will.

Probably not the thread for you then!

You’ve obviously never experienced the thrill of staying up 3 hours too late on a Tuesday night in November yelling at a meaningless blowout non-conference game b/c you got the Zags -24.5 as your last leg of a 4 pick parlay.

Ever hit a +1000 parlay with all your buddies? Nirvana.

No. But I know gambling and sports has never lead to anything positive. Point shaving though... That is pretty common. Throwing games or matches. Is there not a team under investigation right now for point shaving? No one knows about college basketball in the 50s? CCNY? Boxing? I don't gamble. So I figured I'd let everyone know it's garbage and terrible for sports.

Well if you hear someone break in and start telling, it's just me.
