    Um No way

    some books may limit the total amount well belwo the side limit, but the fact is they make money on every side and total long term. so doing away with totals would be like giving away money for large sportsbooks. not EVER gonna happen dude.

    you're my boy blue!

    I would imagine CBB totals may be one market on which books are a net loser, at least in the last few years.

    Limits will probably be low until mid december until the books have a good handle on most teams

    Couldn't possibly disagree more. Some of the softest lines you are going to see in a major sport.

    Overall NCAAB is a major sport, yes. Whether or not a lot of people follow or bet on it in the early season is another matter.

    Looks like Bookmaker already stopped posting totals on every game. Will see if this will change today.

    rumor turned out to have more validity than I thought it would
    some books that used to have them up either don't have them up or reduced limits
    there are still a few outs though

    But nobody is following with their own totals. They're all scared shitless and are waiting for the steam to end. That's a first. Even The Greek is afraid.
