    I never take ML on small favorites like this, it is just not worth it in the long run. Push percentage on 1 in NCAA Hoops is about 3.47%. If Shockers win by 1, so be it, ATS is still the right move long term.

    Possibly, most of what I do in hoops isn't math oriented so I tend to just not price anything minus what I think the line should be. 130 was high, but the book has crappy ML prices

    Are you saying line was -2 -110 and ML -130? If so, bets are about neutral and doesn't matter much. But -1.5 -110 is better than -130.

    I don't remember honestly. I just know that ML's are usually a little inflated. I've seen some teams getting a point and the ML be -115. I don't know how all other books are, but the ML's are generally overpriced

    Any line looks like a joke when you hit 7 of your first 9 shots and a free throw.

    So you're going to tell someone not to call the game early but then make the call that Wichita will be ok before the game is over.

    Yeah they won the ACC and Duke, NC, and NC State are still playing but the Irish suck. I guess the Missouri Valley is a much tougher proving ground then the ACC

    Good timeout usage, coach. Are we completely out of it yet? Yes...ok, let's slow down that 9/10 shots. What a buffoon. Good luck at Bama.

    Sad thing is....ND can play the game of basketball better than Kentucky but its hard to beat an army of athletic 6'11" big men and 6'6 guards

    ND could hang but they're going to need to hit a lot of 3s and Ky needs to shoot like they did vs Cincinnati

    No chance. ND won't have a shot defending them and the guards on Kentucky will be right up in the shooters jock and they are all taller than the ND big men basically. I don't even see how ND scores, it will be a bloodbath. They can move the ball around all they want, Kentucky will cover the perimeter and dare them to come down low. Force them to make 2 point jumpers. They need WVU to win tonight big, but Elite 8 for ND is like winning it all....is this the first since Digger years.

    Not at all, I meant that Wichita State would regroup and make a game of it. I meant "will be fine" in the sense that they would settle down.
