intro: Congratulations to the entire Elite 8! Bread, Madukwe, Santo, Netprofit, BIG, turnip, zubzub, tomcast.
Wow. The Final 8 of the 64 Man NIT contest is more star-studded than one of Lil Wayne's necklaces. In the west side of the draw, we have Bread and Madukwe on tap, Bread is already off to a 3-0 +3.00 unit start while Madukwe has broken even yet is positive juice.
Bringing up the rear on that side of the draw is the man I actually favor to win the NIT contest, a sharp forum punter that goes by the posting moniker of "Santo". Santo is known for his insightful contributions to SBR's Industry subforum, and the fact that he was the first poster to fly an Ana Ivanovic avatar. Santo should have absolutely no problem disposing of Netprofit, and I mean that with no disrespect to his opponent. It simply won't even be close.
Our final two matches are BIG versus turnip, and zubzub vs tomcast, matches that are unworthy of color commentary at this time.
Outcomes for Elite 8 matches
We favor Bread to advance past Madukwe but lose to eventual champion Santo in the final 4.
We favor Santo dispose Netprofit with relative ease, similar to Roger Federer blasting an unranked qualifier off the court in straight sets.
We favor turnip to squeak out a victory against BIG.
We favor tomcast to hold zubzub upside down throughout their match before dropping him on his head and emerging with a W.
FIELD ODDS (not for wagering)
Santo -750
turnip +900
tomcast +1150
zubzub +2205
Bread +2700
Madukwe +3655
BIG +4000
Netprofit +4500
