Lmao @ Barkley on the halftime show.

Eta... Apparently that was the msu post game show. Too many channels going on here.

Wondering what others worst losing streak is betting. I've lost 10 NCAA bets in a row and while i've had other bad runs this many consecutive losses on essentially coin flips (all bets have been on the point spread) is pretty insane.

By the way i love KU -6 and wichita -4.5 tomorrow.

Straight bets? That blows. Follow some good people here and win some money picking your spots. Your plays tomorrow aren't bad though. Stanford not that good. Wich is underrated as a number 1 seed imo. Cohesive team. Unimpressed by KYJELLY and that whole conference in general.

 
4-4 for over Saturday. That makes 9-7 in the two years since I brought over Saturday to this thread. Who can argue with that kind of production?

 
These Aussie fans don't seem to have a freakin clue what's going on. Either that or the Diamondbacks are boring them, which is definitely understandable.

 
Man North Dakota state is taking this hard huh? Refreshing to see.

I've never seen either Dakota now that I think about it. Dakota iCliff notes?

 
If I was someone of **** vitales status, I am 101% sure that I would not have photographs or magazine covers of me in my office.

Anna Nicole smith (pre or post heft/drugs)? Sure(also see:Kate Upton). That Penelope Cruz girl that Tom tricked? Absolutely. Radr Nates fresh catch the day? Spot reserved. But of...me?

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy yyyyy

 
Kansas O143

Tennessee O130

Iowa St U159

Witchita -4.5

Baylor U143

Also have some RR ML parlays with Baylor, Witchita, Tenn, Zona, UCLA and UVA

 
Oregon was brutal. Damn
Between that and the 4 point play last night, I better never lose another bet in my life. I hope swirvin can give us a play by play in vegas sportsbooks of the reaction
Oregon and the VCU game were the best crowd reaction. Michigan St was fun both days cause the line was right on for both and was the only game on kind of thing or was on the big screen.
How long did it take people to realize there was time left on the clock in the Oregon Game when that technical happened. I think I would've freaking lost it if I was actually in Vegas (even more than I did here)

 
Creighton is a much different, and better opponent than Nebraska...for me, that play was about the matchup, only, for a couple of units. I only pounded it hard after getting confirmation via GR's endorsement...haven't finished analyzing tonight's game yet.

Starting out the day with a fun 1u play on Clemson -4, because I like Clemson, and dislike the Illini (but Clemson has a distinct rebounding edge here in a matchup of two otherwise even Teams). Slept on getting it early, would have liked to have bought down 3.5 to 3 for -120, but it moved to 4. It's a fun bet, anyway.

 
Got some pretty sweet-### football cards from my GB RN in the mail yesterday. Once Mark Sanchez finds a team and Blaine Gabbert rights his ship in SF, I'm gonna be turning around and selling these for boatloads. :hifive:

Anyone want to proffer an opinion on how good of a 3-point shooting team Stanford is? IMO, that's the whole key to this game against Kansas...
74th in the nation in percentage, 238 (out of 351) in attempts...37% 6 for 16 per game, while Kansas hits 34.5%, just under 6 for 16 per game.. Kansas is an offensive powerhouse, but their D is one of the worst in recent Kansas hoops history, especially the perimeter defense. They struggle and get beat when opponents get hot from outside. With Embiid out, the interior d gets softer, which might make the perimeter even more open. Stanford's D gets relatively worse as the caliber of their opponents offense improves, so they aren't a great matchup for a strong offensive Team like Kansas, under normal circumstances, but with Embiid out, circumstances aren't normal.

I think this is just one to stay away from. Could go either way.

ETA: What I was looking for was if Stanford represented enough of a 3 point threat, first by being an upper-echelon 3 point shooting team, second, by a significance difference between their quality in that regard versus Kansas. Stanford is an above average 3 point threat, but Kansas appears to be capable of trading 3's with them if it comes down to it. Even if Stanford has better than average 3 point defense, Kansas is just such a scoring machine, they could compensate for it by scoring more baskets overall, and probably shooting, and making more free throws.

Stanford needs to do everything they can to slow this game down, I don't know if they can, or not. If if devolves into a shootout, Kansas superior offense SHOULD win out, as Stanford's defense gets worse as the offense they face gets better...just too many 'what if's'.

North Carolina is 5-1 SU and ATS when they receive less than 50% of the action this season and 10-3 SU and 9-4 ATS when they receive less than 40% of the action.

 
I'm pounding Wichita State.

#8 Kentucky vs #1 Wichita State -5 2u, ML -200 4u, Midwest Regional St. Louis, MO Wildcats are extremely talented, but youthful and inexperienced, and they haven't shown the ability to consistently compete with and beat 'elite' caliber upper echelon teams. Kentucky is a superior offensive rebounding team, and they score a lot of 2nd chance points off those rebounds. They also play hard, and draw plenty of fouls, so they score plenty from the stripe. So, to beat them, you have to work hard to clean the defensive glass and play smart. Wichita State is one of the best defensive rebounding Teams in the nation, and they're very good about keeping out of foul trouble. In my opinion, there's nothing to worry about now that the Shockers are playing Teams up in class - not only did they pound the teams they were supposed to pound, their overall play improved every time they played a quality opponent, similar to last year, so they have the look of a veteran team, building on their foundation. The only thing about Wichita St. is that they don't take, or make, a lot of 3's. They thrive on the drive and dish, so if matched up against a team with strong inside D and a strong outside game, they can stumble. Kentucky is formidable, but a lot of things have to go right for them, and a lot of things have to go wrong for the Shockers, for the Wildcats to win here.
