    Baylor/Duke WOMEN!

    Does anyone other than me think Baylor ML +125 might be a really good pick tonight? They beat the #1 seed Tenn by 15 and now they're underdogs against the #2 seed? This might be one of those situations where a dominant player carries a team to a championship (or at least until they get to UCONN).

    Or am I silly even considering putting a large bet on women's sports?

    Not a bad idea, but I think Duke's defense will solve Baylor's offense tonight. Duke -2.5 is the play for me.

    Baylor/Duke line looks tough.
    Xavier +17 should be a walk in the cake...

    Disagree on Xavier being a cakewalk. Depends which Xavier team shows up. They are very inconsistent. They could play Stanford tight or lose by 20+.

    That inconsistency showed up in the line when the 3rd seed Xavier played 7th seeded Gonzaga - Zags giving 3. Xavier blew them out of the water

    Getting 17 that seems a walk in the cake to me.
    These opportunities don't come around often.
    Can't imagine them not playing well tonight.

    Again disagreeing there. This team has played one good half in three games [2nd half vs. Gonzaga], otherwise their defense has been poor and their offense has not been stellar either. They were lucky to get by Vanderbilt and they let East Tennessee State stick around in the 1st round because they could not defend the perimeter. Stanford is experienced and has size to match with Xavier and probably better athleticism with their bigs. I do think you're getting a decent pop with the points because if Xavier played well in this tournament, this line would be low double digits I think. But you look at the body of work and Stanford has been as dominant as UConn outside of losing to the Huskies by 12. They blew out Gonzaga by 30 in the regular season, beat Tennessee by 15, beat Duke by 16. I just don't see a great play on either side personally. If Xavier at least plays good defense, the under might be decent, but really not a solid edge either.

    Well, we lucked out Baylor backers If they had ONE PLAYER on their team that could hit a FREAKING OPEN 3-POINTER they would be unbeatable with Griner getting double teamed on every possesion. I hate that I just spent the last two hours of my life watching that garbage

    Nice pick. It's helpful when they have a dude on their team. That Britney chick had to have been a man. Sounds like one. Looks like it has an Adam's apple.

    Xavier came to play tonight and Stanford might be playing their worst ball all year. This is why they call it gambling! Stanford looked like they were going to salt this out to double digits and now Xavier is in the lead. Who had Xavier ML?


    Guess if you knew Stanford's best player was going to foul out having barely done a thing, you're a smart one.
