          Otters, if there was every a time to parlay four big moneylines, I think this is the time to do it.

                            the last time a 1 was favored by 14-15 pt was 2012. Vermont and Asheville were around 15 pt dogs to UNC/Syracuse.

                              Remember, this is Kansas we are talking about - a team known for some pretty early exits when they had high expectations. You never know...

                                        i tried to pick some upsets this year but i just couldn't find many i think what i have learned over the years pick a few upsets 1st game or maybe 2nd but that's about it usually it's still the top 4 seeds making the final four

                                          My problem is years I follow closely like last few I always fall in love with the little guys throughout year! I almost always pick the right upsets, problem is I also have picked about 7-8 others that are wrong and those teams end up going far! Lol. I leave that out when I say "hey I picked that upset!", truth is I picked a bunch of them!! Lol.

                                          I honestly don't see as many this year. I only think there 1 or 2 dd seeds that could get to even sweet 16. There a few 7-8's out there I think are dangerous to 1s and 2's in second round. Think that where most my drama will be. Generally what I do if I'm gonna bounce a high seed in next round anyways lot of time I bounce them a round early for hell of it.

                                            Kansas is notorious for laying eggs in the tourney. Penn defends the 3 well. I would say if this game wasn’t in Kansas they got a chance I just don’t see it happening with the home court

                                                yeah that was me, both teams were seeded badly is why we have the line

                                                definitely one of the lowest 1-16 lines for a while

                                                part of the reason this "should have happened" like i said is because the committee does a really bad job placing the low majors on the correct seed line

                                                FWIW 5dimes has this prop

                                                All #1 seeds win by 10+ points -165
                                                16004 Any #1 seed does not win by 10+ points +125

                                                yesterday that was about 50 cents higher

                                                  wouldn't be the largest Straight up dog to win a first round game i'm sure.

                                                  so the seeding #'s shouldn't be the factor that makes everyone says no way.

                                                    they just won conference championship without there best player & hes back if needed.penn couldnt beat any of the teams ku beat in conf. turny..gl..aka big 12 so tough bcause they play round robin style play every team twice.aka gt21 not home court as in surroundings they dont play at wichita 3 1/2 hours away,maybe home court fans but real homecourt is comfortable with surroundings from playing their often.

                                                      Penn isn't even a "real" 16 seed. Since the First Four/Play-In format, the bottom four teams, which should be the "real" 16 seeds, play heads-up. Penn is more like a 15.

                                                      All the play in games for the 16 seeds does is shift everyone two spots in the s curve.

                                                        Kansas has a fight on their hands. Ivy League teams are always scary and Self is notorious for exiting early. If Penn can hold KU to 35 pct 3 pt shooting this will be a game.

                                                            Kansas is also a 7 loss team ranked #9 in the AP they have no business being a 1.
