Missed Monday on these odds which was likely a blessing as WV beat the corn out of ISU, and KU tried to make me feel good about 3.5 but not so much.

On To Tuesdays odds..

(Feel free to throw other odds in here as we usually just have 1 thread)

FLA -1.5

(W) OLY HOC SWE - GER O 4.5

Waiting on Texas line..

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

I like UM +3.5 over Ohio St... Ill likely take UM to win straight up.

I like your UF pick.

Espn has the Horns as 4 point favorites... I'll take that, all day. Tech just beat them and they will be missing their MVP. UT bounces back big from last games embarrassment.

Also leaning toward San Diego St -4

 

[UTPhil2006]

I set my bar as -5 w/out Marcus Smart. Minus 4 makes me iffy. Maybe it will come down between now and then.

I've bet on UF a good bit and they haven't failed me but once

 

[utisdabomb12]

I would take FLA and the Horns. I honestly don't know how FLA is just -1.5. Florida might be the best team in the country and Tennessee isn't very good. Heck, Florida recently beat Tennessee by over 20 points. I guess it's because the game is in Knoxville.

 

[UTPhil2006]

Yeah FLA makes me think I should take it now. Rockets were a pk against MIN last night, woke up -4.5. Thats not to say they didnt cover 18 but it just goes you to show how nightly these lines will move.

Oh, great. A gambling thread.

I have learned this year that if a much better team is only favored by 1-3 points the home team Tenn wins the game. That's the trend I've seen this year. I would be weary of the UF game. Mich St, arguably one of the best teams in the country, just lost to Georgetown big. Call me crazy, I'll take Tenn.

 

[Topstarr]

Sure

 

[SFlonghorngirl]

I would take Florida, Ohio St, and Texas.

Do you play parlays? If so, what is your max number of bets per parlay? I find myself successful at 2, but when I play 3, I tend to get 1 wrong.

This last weekend I hit a 5 game parlay and a 3 game parlay. Higher payout is always great but the odds are much lower of hitting. Tonight I'll likely parlay Tenn, Mich, UT... But I'll buy a couple points. Tenn and UT being home teams and Mich vs Ohio is a huge rivalry game and Mich is the better team. UF, with only 2 losses, doesn't really need this game at all. Tenn does. Just my personal opinion.

I was very wrong about UF. Haha felt good at the half though.

I was wrong about Meeeeechigan. Glad I was wrong though!

Unless you have some money to burn Vegas isn't the the place for you. Haha Last game in my 3 game parlay died, San Diego St. Shame.

I usually go once a year but have never gone during March Madness. Airfare is ridiculous.

I went during football season 2 years ago with a group of gfs. I was at the Sportsbooks from 9am - 11pm. I saw my friends once the entire trip. It was so much fun. My rule of thumb: Can't stay in Vegas longer than 2 nights. You either do something really stupid or go broke.

Last summer, a different group of gfs and I drank, ate and hung out at the pool the entire time. Vegas is so much fun! So many different things to do.

 

[SFlonghorngirl]

Tonight I have:

Pittsburgh +2.5 at home against Syracuse

Duke -2.5 on the road against North Carolina

I love Vegas completely and wholly... Greatest most fun place ever. That said I stayed for 5 days last year on a trip... Worst decision ever. Oh god the aftermath was terrible. Haha

I caught this late. Pitt was actually favored by -2.5. I took Syracuse to win the game, and won. And I had Duke picked to win(-3) before it was cancelled! Damn Mother Nature. Look at tomorrow yet? Haha

I'm telling you, 2 nights max! My first time to Vegas, I learned quickly my ATM card had a withdrawal limit. I was cashless for 4 hours. I had to wait for some games to end to collect cash.
