And down goes Gonzaga. And it feels good. Don't even care if Oklahoma State (what in the world is going on with them?) loses. Gonzaga falling victim to defeat made my night and I didn't get a penny for it (yet).

I agree with this. Mark Few is right about non-conference games like this late in the season making college basketball a more exciting product. Unfortunately, with how big the mega conferences have become, it just makes it hard to fit these types of contests in the schedule for many high-profile teams.

My buddy went to Vegas this weekend for March Madness and is 4-5 on the weekend and is about to bet all his winnings (about $1,000) on Arizona -7.5 tonight against Gonzaga.

Arizona wins but it'll be close IMO. Bye bye $1000

He nailed it. This guy is easily the best person I know at making picks. That's why I stopped betting against him 6 years ago lol

Who does everyone like tonight?

Ive been doing well this tourney thus far. First 4 days I turned $5 into $130. Hit on a $5 parlay the 1st 4 games and then pretty much coasted lol


Arizona (-7.5) vs SDSU
Florida (-4.5) vs UCLA
Dayton (+3) vs Stanford
Baylor (+3.5) vs Wisconsin

I am leaning towards Arizona, Florida, Stanford and Baylor. But I know history says we will have at least 2 close games tonight. Also thinking of taking Baylor ML. Think they present a ton of issues for Wisconsin, but they are so undisciplined like Oregon, Badgers could just pummel them into submission (like Oregon in 2nd half).

I am leaning towards UofM -3.5, Louisville -4, and MSU -2.5

Probably will put $20 on each one. That is pretty big for me as most of my bets are usually in the $5-$15 range. But I feel confident in all 3 teams.

I went ML on the bears tonight (+280) and made 17$. Up $120 in the first two weeks so far. Anyone else getting in the action?

I need to start betting nfl and FUCKING STOP with college football.

No joke, I am 1 for 15 in my college football bets this season. I've lost a boatload. I don't even know how it's possible to miss 14 bets in 2 weekends. SMH

Had a real nice weekend in college and pro. I'll spare the play by play. I usually have between 15-30 college plays and 10-15 NFL plays a week.

Wow. See I feel like im the opposite. I always win CFB and lose NFL. I typically do 3 team +10 teasers, though.

Another solid weekend for me in college and pro. Steady as she goes.

Have the Bears tonight to finish a 3 team parlay and a 5 team parlay. One is +3 and the other is the ML. I put 170 on the Jets ML to hedge and it opens up a middle if the Jets win by 1 or 2 I win the hedge bet and the 3 teamer.

I didn't do a full hedge but I wanted to ensure a profit. I still profit 100 more if the Bears win outright so I'll be rooting for that.

Well, if it helps, I have the Jets winning something like 21-20 or 23-21. Lol. Didn't out money on the game, but have to pick a MNF winner for a pool I am in. Took Jets, but think Bears cover.

Early lines I like this week.
Favorite - Underdog (Home in CAPS)

CHICAGO - Green Bay 1.5
INDY - Tenn 7.5
BALT - Carolina 3.5
SF - Philly 4.5
Atlanta - MINN 3.5
New Orleans - DALLAS 3.5
New England - KC 4.5


Ill end up throwing money on 4 of them, maybe 5 since I like way more lines than usual (usually I am debating between 5 to pick 4, this week I obviously see 7 good ones, so might pick 5 instead of just 4)

Chicago is only a 1.5 favorite at home over the Packers, and Kansas City is a 4.5 point dog at home against NE? WTF?
