    I am unaware of market price on this bet, but my bookie is offering this. Seems like a steal.

    I definitely would not. I'd lay the 80/1 gladly. If you want you can bet points with me. 2 to win 160?

        I'd throw $1 on it but it's a donation they don't play any defense.

          Well UNC is awful, and a non-factor come tourny time. Their poor showing @ home vs Duke was enough for me.

              Although Im not quite sure what you mean UNC is solidy in the field of 64. Both CBS Sportsline, and Joey Brackets have them in the 8 to 9 range. I you are saying that the odds should reflect their NIt Championship chances, then I would be all over them.

                Lol I know they're in the field but they should be a 10-11 seed. Have no business being anywhere south of 10

                  UNC is a brand name, as is Kentucky. Both get the preferrential treatment.

                    I would if I was going to make futures bets.. Especially with how wide open this year is. 80-1 is a fair price.

                      Just don't think there is any value in this bet. Really good at beating bottom feeders but that's not what this tourney consists of. gl

                        I do nt expect UNC to make it past the first round, but I say that about a lot of teams... Ole Piss, UNLV, any PAC team

                              Me too. Them refusing this shows how unfair the 80:1 odds are. Should be more like 200:1

                                150/1 would be more fair. I'd gladly lay 100/1

                                    80-1 if it was just the ACC tourney... Wouldn't touch em in the big dance.

                                      It wouldnt matter if they were 800,000-1. NO CHANCE. Dont waste your money.

                                        No, 80 -1 not enough, they won't win 3 games in Tourn. let alone 6. They got fat on weak ACC teams, different deal now when they get to Round 3. They are lucky to be in it at all and like others have said they are UNC so they are in, same with Ky...both may not win a game.

                                          No, they don't have any chance at winning it all.
