Probably will. I just have a hard time rooting against Bryce Cotton & Jahii Carson.I have the opposite, hope you fail.
if nothing sexy comes out before tomorrow, i'm throwing it on:throwing it out there. Got a $500 free bet if anyone has a super duper prop.

I always prefer to play the free bets on dogs to maximize value so why not play the YES side of this instead? Most future hedging opportunities would likely be at + odds too.

Towson +4, 2u and Towson ML +162, 1u over South Carolina-Upstate 7PM CIT Tournament.

Yeah, poor choice of words. Otherwise, you'd just put it on the biggest dog you could find. If he weren't talking about hedging, I may not have made my suggestion necessarily.

Texas A&M -5 over Wyoming in the NIT looks like a decent play - Wyoming is a very tough out at home, but a much different team on the road. More importantly, they lost their best player, Larry Nance Jr. 4 weeks ago, and at this point are playing like a shell of their former selves, having lost 5 of their last 6. Thoughts?

I asked a couple of people already.... looking for more opinions.
Is it dumb to put $4K on the Michigan State ML (-2000) to make $200? They can't lose, can they? If it matters, every penny of it is house money.
Also looking for other ML locks in the 1st round.

Hat trick for Stamkos tonight. Think he's tied with Malkin now.

just not worth it imo
what is the 200 gonna for you?
Every year we get 2-3-4 seeds to bite the bullet, just not worth the risk.

You know, this just occurred to me right before I saw your post. $200 buys a lot of cat food, but the risk is too great.

Delaware can score a ton in a hurry. I wouldn't risk that kind of money on this game.

Any other MLs that are more reasonable (say, -300 to -600) that feel very lock-ish?

SMU, if you can still get in at -500 - they may not win by 10 tonight, but they're going to win this game.
...ETA, although down 0-7 in the opening minutes, I'll bet you're glad you couldn't...
...but just slow coming out of the gates, IMO. There's still a long way to go.

Oregon?
BYU best player is out.
I 2nd Baylor.
Game is in San Antonio, TX should have a good home crowd feel

I think Haws is quite a bit better than Collinsworth, but he (Collinsworth) will certainly be missed. I like Oregon a bit, Baylor a lot.

There needs to be an app where all you do is plug in the ingredients you DO have in your kitchen and it brings up good a bunch of recipes with JUST those ingredients. It's tough to be drunk without a lot of groceries around.

I also endorse Baylor. Another I like would be San Diego State -320. Third choice Pitt -280.

If you are having trouble filling out bracket at rb, if you cut down your zoom to 75% you can make all the picks. I had to go to 50% to get the submit part to show up. just a heads up. Happy tourney everybody.
