Interesting...Did you place the bet online or in Vegas? When did you make the play?
Villanova 50/1...hey you know your hoops. Interesting choice. What do you think about Xavier @ 75/1
Interesting! I was just posting about Xavier and you mentioned it!
Joe Jackson can be a turnover machine but played with Lamb this summer.
He did but i watched a lot of those games Jackson hasn't changed one bit still way to turnover prone for me to say Memphis can win a national title, remember they are still very young, only played in one ncaa tournament game. Only thing i like about the team is their schedule like Xavier they are being tested out of conference with Maui, @ Gtwon, and @ Ville. It's your money if you like Memphis go with it, but im not touching them. Also agree on Nova, they or Gtown will bounce back big this year.
Whats the case for Nova and Gtown? Both lost pretty big to graduation. Thanks for the Joe J update I wasn't able to watch any of those games. Interesting thoughts. Thanks...
I would guess more like 100/1. Just a guess though.
Both return a good amount as well, i feel better about Gtown than i do Nova to be honest Nova's last two years have either been a result of Wayns or the outgoing players. Nova does bring back Wayns and Yarou which is a solid core. Gtown on the other hand brings back Clarke and Thompson and Clarke ended the year really strong. Thompson will put up better numbers with Wright and Freeman gone. Not to mention i love Otto Porter kid is a player and will be a impact freshman, expect Markel Starks to step in and produce was very impressed by him in limited minutes in the Big East Tournament. The key is who steps up at center Lubick certainly can't play the 5, so a lot of pressure is on Henry Simms and incoming freshman Mikeael Thompkins to produce if they do Gtown will have a bounce back year. Their year starts off with a strong showing in Maui wouldn't shock me if they win it i think they are that good.
Wow you are admittedly schooling me on Gtown. I really have been sleeping on them due to the loss of Freeman and Wright. It looks like some due diligence is in play for bluedoghouse. Thanks!
no problem my man hope you win some $$$$
Who's their Kemba?
+1
yep 50/1 and Xavier appears to be 75/1.
Honestly I don't know much about Lyons but I have vetted the team including Holloway of course. They seem like 1 of the better long shots. I remember them getting knocked out by Ohio State several years ago. They had that game!
I got frozen out of Memphis at Caesar's Palace. Memphis was 40/1 on the hard copy sheets at the casino. Caesar's and all their sister casino sports books had 40/1 before I tried to place a wager at Caesars. I wanted to place a bet for 2,500 on Memphis and the manager limited the bet to 200 unless I had "special standing" at the casino. I said no and went to Harrah's and the other sister casinos of Caesars and the line dropped to 30/1 10 minutes later. I walked away from Memphis. UConn was anywhere from 12/1 to 20/1 at various sports books. The best odds on Xavier were 65/1 at the Wynn. They limited your action there to 500 on a futures bet. Xavier was as low as 40/1. The Mirage is separate from the Caesars sister books that get their #'s from the Rio. The Mirage is the best book because they allowed higher wagers on futures. After taking a 50/1 bet the line dropped to 25/1 an hour later. This team basically was going for 40/1 or 35/1 in other places. It is difficult to find books ready to risk a large payout for x # of dollars. Cincinnati was 100/1 at many books.
Interesting...To give you an update @ the MGM for instance UNC is 5/2 and Syracuse is 12/1. At the Wynn NC 7/2 and SU 12/1. The last I checked the best you can get for UConn is 20/1 @ the Hilton. Everywhere else its lower. At Caesar's (jerks as they limit everything you do) its NC 3/1, SU 12/1 and UConn 15/1 ect ect...
