This line is suspiciously low. I gotta take Belmont here.
Thoughts NCAA guys?
nice reasoning.

You don't see a No. 3 seed favored by 3 against a 14 very often -- if ever.

No point in trying to be cute with picking upsets. Getting 3 points with a #14 seed. What a joke.
Just fade all these mid-majors till the end. They'll lose sooner or later. They got overrated because of last year.

Nothing on Belmont's schedule suggested they were about even with Georgetown.
Don't understand people trying to out think themselves. No idea why Vegas set this line at 3 when it should have been 6-7 but I'm sure they got enough people laying off or betting on Belmont out of confusion.

I buy the hook whenever I get the urge too now. Had the urge to buy the hook from -1.5 on Ohio a week back and didn't and they win by 1 on two missed free throws at the end. Should always trust the gut!

I need more to justify putting money down. This is a no play right now but I'm leaning Georgetown.
Have you people watched Belmont? What makes you so confident? Who exactly have they beaten?
I feel like Georgetown will beat them up on the glass. Belmont matches up better with a team like Duke than they do with G'Town IMO.
GL.
Like I was saying, why take a team when you haven't watched them play?
It was really obvious Belmont didn't match up from the get go.
No one had any reason for taking Belmont. These was an ass kicking.

What's your point? No reason to take belmont here. It was either Georgetown or no play

For starters, I don't put money on A team when their best win was against Marshall, they played no one all year, and they match up horrible with he opponent just because he line looks fishy.
I doubt most of the people that took them had really even watched them play.

LB, stick to the NBA man, u kill it there. Taking Belmont isn't equivalent to taking the Suns last night or the Bulls a couple days ago. It's the playoffs. And it's all kids playing. GL

10+ seeds are getting wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much respect so far
I made a thread about this but 3 seeds traditionally win their matchups at about an 85% clip (which translates to -600 moneylines) yet the MLs for the 3 seeds have averaged about - 270

I'll take Kentucky over VCU if they make it that far but that's just me.

Agreed on Kentucky but that's probably about it
I totally agree with you though on dogs getting too much respect. The line on this game should have been aorund -600

Exactly, parity maybe in but these moneylines are really low. Ohio State vs Gonzaga only -300, they can have my money if Gonzaga wins.

what line did you get on that? Usually that's about a 50-50 proposition considering that 4 seeds win about 78% of their first round matchups

I also got All #3 seeds win first round at +300 or so.

I don't understand how it's possible to get +300 on 3 seeds but +250 on four seeds. 4 seeds are inferior teams with more difficult matchups, shouldn't it be the other way?
In any case, both lines are fantastic value. Like I said, 4 seeds winning all 4 games is about a 50-50 proposition so +250 is awesome
