    It seems like it's the sport most responsible for sending people to Gamblers Anonymous.

      yeah its my worst sport and i lose money every single year on college hoops. Every year, it never fails. This year i'm going to try to have some self control lol.

      Its perfect for action junkies b/c the games are only 2 hours long and there are so many teams to bet on .

          I thiink its way easier to gamble on than NBA. Sure, there are upsets every now and again in college, but the pros are way more random. I like betting NCAA. And if I lose i just double down.

            Yes

            massive sucker game

            All Hoops actually is because of amount of points scored

            Lower scoring sports easier to cape

              really? didn't know that? but wagering on college hoops will make your hair go gray real soon.

              but it's definitely beatable, imo...

                    Soccer and NHL Models do work although you need to be a math expert

                    Lower leagues beatable

                      I didn't really think about it until I heard Artie Lange talking about it the other day.

                      I don't play much college hoops.

                                  Nothing like throwing a grand down on the random 3 game day Canisius or whatever game.

                                    yeah this hit. but i had to sweat it out. at the 10:00 of the second half i had 50.5 pts to spare but then that bald baylor coach kept fouling late and i had to dodge a couple of 3's. snuck out with the win by a few pts
