      In NCAA I've never seen more parity than this year, this will truly be march madness, the top 10 teams get knocked off by unranked teams constantly this year, I mean ya cant even call it an upset anymore its so frequent

      Almost all the top 10 teams are lead by shooters rather than big men is one of the problems, at any time shooters can go ice cold, but the top big men are gonna stay 7 ft+ tall and be able to rebound, defend and lay it in unless they are injured

      Every game I watch a top team its a Scotty Reynolds or a Rautins shooting 3s on every poss, theres no Tyler Hansborough battlin in the paint or Dejuan Blair's its just all shooting, Kentucky has a little bit of the dominance with Patterson but even they are lead mainly by Wall, btw what happened to Dexter Pittman, I mean fuk that dude fell off the planet

        It happens like that. All of a sudden, and I guarantee this will happen whether its next year or in march madness, the favs will win at an astonishing rate. It all evens out in the long run.

        This happened in baseball a couple years back. Favorites in between -101 and -199 won seemingly 95% of the time. Of course it wasn't that high but it was unbelievable.

            JJ's gotta be loadin up this season takin the dog in every game, hell I wish I'd moneylined the dogs, its unreal, the top 10 NCAA teams have absolutely no consistency, last year's #1 North Carolina never let a team in the NCAA tourney finish within single digits of them, the #1's this year are the weakest I've ever seen there are no teams that I'd be surprised to see goin home early, even Kentucky on the road looks like trash half the time

              Dogs traditionally do well in conference tourneys, as the rank teams really has nothing to play for except for seeding. This is basically an exhibition games to the lock ins team for the NCAA tournament.
