This is a great way to cap a week.

I'm in a 5k winner take all survivor pool.

Only 6 of us survived last night (I love you Sister Jean).

I don't have a great hand, having burned TTU, K St, Purdue... and then it came out like this.

4 on Kansas
1 on Villanova
Me on Duke.

The 1 on Villanova only has Florida State left tomorrow - I have FSU and Michigan.

For the love of Greg Buckner, let's go Tigers.

All purely hypothetical, but if Kansas loses would you go FSU and guarantee a split or wager 2,500 on Michigan?
Or do you hedge and take Michigan in pool but make a separate wager on money line for FSU win! That probably would get better return than the 2,500 split since FSU is underdog.
Even if you don’t bet you have to consider opening an account and buying that hedge.
Last one if you are really ballsy is take FSU with points and be hedged with possibility to win (M wins but doesn’t cover, bet your entire theoretical 5k) both!

I'm psyched for the games tonight, much moreso than yesterday's matchups. Though UK/KSU game went exactly as I'd hoped...including the moping off the court.

As of right now I’d take Michigan and make a ML bet on FSU. ML is +180 so maybe 1k there and it’s 4k or 1,800. Good ROI on $50.

I went on Spring Break in 96 with half the Clemson team after they got knocked out because a friend was dating a Tiger. Maybe this is finally their year.

Based on the game time tonight I could also end up with a +506 cuse hedge.

Did Graham really just airball a shot from like 5 feet away?

This Nova/WVU game is intense. With all the pressing and trapping surprised both teams over 30 with 5 mins left.

Kinda hope WVU wins. Morgantown hasn't had a good couch fire in awhile.

Boy Clempzon sucks. All Kansas.
Kansas always goes farther than you think in the years they actually aren't good. It's weird like that. They're still around 9-12 in KenPom, but got a 1 seed, so you figure an underseeded (by KenPom) Seton Hall might have them, but nope.

They'll probably freaking lose to Michigan in the Title Game or something.

Clemson is making a lot of tough shots or this game would be uglier.
