    Think this NCAA teaser is solid..
    Xavier +9
    Memphis +3.5
    Stanford +10


    (-120)


    #3 seed Xavier isn't going to get beat by DD are they? Too much experience and senior leadership wouldn't you say?

    #1 seed Memphis will likely win this game. Memphis getting more than a possession looks good to me. If Memphis loses it will be by a small amount.

    #3 seed Stanford getting DDs looks extremely safe to me. Stanfords inside presence should at the very least keep them in this game.


    Thoughts?

    The problem isn't that each leg isn't favored. The problem is that variance is higher than you think and that in real odds you shouldn't be laying juice. As a general rule NCAA teasers are not a wise investment. If you like said teams take them on the straight up or spread lines.

      Usually don't play teasers but when it's the NCAA tournament I find value. No throwing games away no dominated home court so that makes for closer games..

        I think it looks pretty solid, but I could see Xavier or Stanford F-ing you if WV or Texas shoots lights out.

          Why I don't like teasers. You can hit 2 out of 3 and you lose money. I only bet straight. No teasers and no parlays.

            I don't like it either. Too much volatility, hence "March Madness". Any of these three teams could get caught. Seems like the classic case of 2 out of 3 legs winning.

            I agree with above, if you like these teams, take them individually on the ML or with the points.
