    Any upsets/underdogs you guys like in the smaller NCAAB tourneys?

    Most books don't have all of them, 5dimes has most of I think but I won't have money there till a few days.

    Kind of like Cleveland State at +500 in the Horizon League.

    Northern Iowa at +925 in the MVC looks alright.

    We'll have to some research in the next few hours. Like betting these conference tourneys futures.

    WOW....Cleveland St at +500 with Norris Cole? Tremendous value.....whether they win or not, I'd be pounding it.

    I just took a look on their site.......Big South offers the most ridiculoud value Ive sene in a while.

    I would be dropping money on both Liberty (+600) and UNC Asheville (+700). Coastal Carolina is in shambles with their PG recently injured and out for the year and two starters getting kicked off the squad. If Liberty and Asheville can make the final, then you have a great hedge opportunity as well.

    Holy Cow 5Dimes is awesome. You are right there may be the only of a handful to have these lines. Had no clue they were up till you mentioned it and sure enough they on under BB futures on the main board @ 5Dimes.

    Did not see the SWAC up yet. But @12-18 and in third place I think Miss Valley has a great shot to win this conference tourney. If they have one. Aint it the Pac ten that just started having a conference tourney after years of not having one?

    Anyways Miss Valley gave leader Texas Southern their only conference loss and took them to OT in the other game they played this year.

    Bad news for me is I am not funded right now @ 5 dimes because I lost all my money there and am not sure when I will be able to budget a reup there. I know the min is 50 with my CC but I have other priorities today.

    Go get em bro!..I`ll be back

    How about Lehigh at +1300 to win the Patriot League??? Heck, they can defend their title, the conference is wide open!

    Yup..good find, as you mentioned above another great hedging opportunity if they win just one game at those odds

    Take a dog in the A-Sun. Top seed hasn't won the thing yet. ETSU at +450, two time defending tourney champs. Lipscomb +1500, only team to beat Belmont.

    YUP StraitShooter.....all they would have to do is beat Navy on their homefloor, a team they've already beaten by 8 and 15. People loaded up at 5dimes should take advantage of this opportunity.

    Assuming no upsets first round.....you can probably take Bucknell or American at about -300 on the ML to make a nice profit.

    I dont see Belmont slipping up here. I watched them play Vandy and Tennessee this year and VERY easily could have won those games.

    Wished other books would offer all of these.

    Most have the CAA, MVC, WCC, *yawn*


    Lot of top seeds go down in these things, one game and bye bye.

    OK, heres a good question. Why is Loyola Illinois +3000 and Detroit is +3500 to win the Horizon??

    They play tonight, and Detroit is favorite by 4 points

    Just don't think -300 is a good investment for them. Good team, but how often have we seen the dominant team in a conference go into the tournament and get upset? #2 seed has won five of the seven A-Sun titles, just sayin'. Mojo.
