College Basketball Bet of the Day – National Championship Game

There is a lot of buzz around the Michigan State Spartans possibly slaying Goliath tonight in the National Championship, but I just don’t see it happening. I know they handled Louisville and UConn rather easily, but let’s not forget just a few months ago many were asking the question will the Tarheels go undefeated. While that was a uneducated thing to think because it’s too hard to do, but this UNC team is really really good. I think in the end Carolina wins this game by 12 to 13 points.

UNC -7.5

Overall Record:

College Basketball 196-149-6
NBA 30-21
NHL 0-1
MLB 20-11
College Football: 106-92-1
NFL 103-72-5

College Basketball Bets of the Day – Sweet Sixteen Part One

How far can ODU go?

There are 8 games in the NCAA tournament over the next 2 days and none bigger than the James Madison vs Old Dominion barn burner in the College Insider Tourney.

Think of it this way.. when either of these teams win tonight they could actually be playing longer than a 1,2 or 3 seed in the NCAA Tourney.

This is like during the Bowl season you have this side Bowl season where the other 60 teams who were 5-6 or worse get a chance to extend their schedule.

Isnt the NCAA and the NIT enough? Do we have to have this CI Classic being played where you cant even watch it on TV.  In an era when the DII Womens Final Eight is on TV this ‘classic’ is not even being televised. And how ‘classic’ is it?

Anyway.. I gave the 6.5 and took ODU along with:

*****Nova +2

Purdue +7.5

Pitt -7

We Got Thabeet

As much as I like the little guy to play in the greatest sporting event ever made.. yes World Cup freaks.. the best event, I dont like seeing 103-47 scores. Dont get me wrong.. I gave the 20 and got Uconn and collected my duckets before the 10 minute mark of the first half, but C’mon this is embarassing.

Whats up with that douchebag from Morgan St. Amir Ali?.. yep a terrorist.. He decided to flip the Player of the Year over his back and then try and walk away like he didnt do anything. Of course the refs saw this and sent him to Guantanomo…

Anyway, we had some decent games in the night session of the First day with scares from American (Winner +16.5)  and Akron early in their games, the “no Duh” game  Western Ky as well as the nail biter UCLA v VCU.  Its not that we did not know this game was gonna be like it was but UCLA was able to not stink as bad as VCU  was able to survive and advance and that is the name of this tourny.

I was 3-1 on my first day of the madness and of course my 5 star pic was a loser.. but I am sure you would take 3-1 every day of the week.

College Basketball Bets of the Day – Madness Day One

So we kissed our sister last night because DeJuan Summers hit a bulls$%t three with three seconds last night to cover against Baylor and Northwestern forgot how to play ball in the last minute against Tulsa.
