I am adding one play.
Under 62.5 first half

two good teams ... both can win, hope we get a great and close game

Think I'm on other team for this one, buddy.
Usually on same side as you.
With that said, UK has taken more of my money than any team in this tourney, while UConn has made most for me...kinda tricky...may look into a 4.5 point teaser again, but I don't know nba games today.

Well, GL. One of will win! I thought about the total, leaning under, but didn't play it. Oh well. It's been fun discussing the tournament selections. I've learned a few things about handicapping.

Are you fairly new to sports betting? Just finished my 1st year...rough at times...lots of hot and cold periods

Yes. This is my second full year. I've found the early season to be winnable. Once they go to conference play, it gets really tough. Tournaments where they play on neutral floors aren't too bad. If I would stay away from totals, I would be a lot better off.

One of the major Keys to this game is REBOUNDING. Kentucky isone of the nation’s best when it comes to rebounding. Over the course of thetournament, Kentucky has out-rebounded their opponents by an astounding 45. IfKentucky can control the boards, then they can also control possessions and thegame tempo and Win.

I’m taking Kentucky Big Time!

Yes they have. But they have yet to completely dominate a game even with that rebounding advantage

I considered that as well. I really had a very hard time with game. Wisconsin basically owned Kentucky for the whole game except that 2 minute stretch at the beginning of the second half. This has happened in their last 3 games. They just have one stretch where they totally dominate their opponent. My concern is that UConn will not play fast with a lead, and Kentucky won't be able to turn their guards over like they have with every other team they've played. It was a close call

robbeduagain · 04-07-14, 07:35 PM

Here's to hoping that this a great game to watch, regardless of the outcome

Congrats! Glad one of us got it right. I've really enjoyed the discussion. I guess I'll move on to baseball, though I haven't started out to well. Maybe I'll be able to get some ideas from some of the good cappers on the MLB forum. GL to you and hopefully we can do this again next season.

0-2 tonight, 30-27-2 for the tournaments. It was fun. I had a lot of difficulty trying to figure this one out, and ultimately, I didn't. I appreciate all the commentary. On to baseball!

Love seeing people take losses like a man.
Cheers to you brother.
Go murder the books in bases!
