    WHHYYY!! I'll never understand.

    I see more people on here than anything saying games are fixed & how they placed the biggest wager ever on a game. Then say they are done with gambling. You know damn well you ain't gonna quit. If you're dumb enough to place big wagers on pick-em games, you definitely dumb enough to come back and do it again. smh.

    Same stupidity as the poker "bad beat" story. No successful gambler does it, and the people you are speaking of surely are not. As a side note the call or no calls at the end of that game were not hat fishy.

    I hear ya. I lost some decent money on the Kansas game, but I dont believe there is a 'FIX'. The refs dont make those calls cause of Vegas, its just their mind-set, of course not all refs are unbiased. It was a tough loss, but everyone knows we win some the same way. (i.e if you had money on Kansas and KansasSt. tonight, you got lucky as hell when your wagers were looking sour.
    BOL to everyone the rest of the week.

    You're correct. My initial wagers in k- state and Marquette were not looking good until the last 5 or 6 minutes left so it really just felt like it could have swung either way tonight ..

    And heck...what ever happened to just placing smaller wagers and building a modest bankroll slowly . I honestly started this season off with 100$ And have grown that ever so slowly with losses in between to about 2k. And I'm not about to go toss half of it on a single game no matter how confident I feel. I don't feel you profit that way..

    That's what I'm saying!! I always make plays on these close games but just very very small. No reason to risk a lot on games like there were tonight.

    Iowa must be the biggest state for losers. I don't remember IOWA or IOWA ST ever winning a big game both in Hoops and on the gridiron. I think they should rename the nickname from the Hawkeye State to the LOSER STATE.

    you are an idiot. Iowa was one of the best teams in the big 10 for football for about all of the 20th century
