I am pretty sure that is betting a buck to win 200 bucks. Otherwise, you could bet 10 bucks on everyone and if the Spartans win you still net 35 bucks.
Still getting 0 respect.
Gear up for 2020 cuz these boys better come out MAD !! I know Eugene will !!

Well, I don't like that Rutgers plays at 6:30 one day.. and if they win they have to play at 3pm the next day. Why not at least give them a night game again? For ratings? How about for fairness?
The 6pm game the next day is PSU-Minny.. just move that game to early afternoon and have the winner of Rutgers-Nebraska play at 6pm.
The 8pm game day one probably plays at 8:30 or so the next day.
This really seems like an intentional disadvantage for the 12/13 winner.

Double byes are tough to beat. 5 games in a row is near impossible.. though it has been done in, I think The Big East. My bet.. with odds.. is Wisky.
Agree, that's why The Book groups first night teams as Field bets and minimizes the odds just in case another UConvicts happens to run the table.
none... hell when we were in a league that you had to win 4 days in a row it was spoken of as impossible.
BTW.. I added to my complaint above...

they have 6 players at best and have tanked most of the season, they are not making a run. Their odds should be as bad as RU's...how could they have lower odds than Illinois who is better than they are, not to mention same odds as OSU is silly
they cannot do that.
games are set in blocks afternoon or evening by what half of the draw you are. You cannot mix and match them.
in the quarters the late game is 830 and the winner has to play at 3pm the next day
stop complaining
The Books here basically give them no chance, thus lumping them as a "field" bet. Get suckers to bet on them with astronomical odds of not winning and, if they do, pay the sucker below market value.
Amen..what are the real odds of the field? 250 to one or worse for these 4 teams collectively? Maybe each varies from 1000 to 1 to 500 to 1?
So start the games later on Saturday and fix that issue. In 24 hours to a body to recover to play the next game.. you don't think losing 3 hours.. or 5-6 hours in the case you just game.. you don't think that's a disadvantage?
They can make Wednesday's games earlier. They start games Thursday at 11:30 CT.
On the positive side I guess that means Michigan is likely screwed worse than the winner of Rutgers-Nebraska. But if they didn't need to make such a pretty looking bracket.. they could easily change the times of games around to lessen the impact.. for the semis.. CBS controls that.. but the rest if BTN control.
Not sure. True odds would probably be in the area you stated. The Book wants to make a profit, so they hope fans of schools with no realistic chance of winning will lay a $5 bet or bigger at 50/1 to win $250 and lose. But they had fundoing it. If they win, the payout would still show a profit on the Book bottom line. At 500 or 1,000/1, payout increases, profits much less. Realistically, the odds would range down from 2000/1 for NW to 500/1 for Illini in $500 increments.
