The Wiz Posted March 2, 2023 Author Share Posted March 2, 2023 2 hours ago, SLU_Nick said: The Vegas line for this game is 11.5. normally 5.5 difference between wiz and Vegas is unheard of Any time you see more than a 3pt difference between me and Vegas there is a big betting opportunity. And it looks like the 97.3% probability of the Bills clinching the Double Bye worked out too...Moral ...When you have a choice to take a 12 OR all the other numbers...take all the other numbers.

JettFlight5 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 I think I’ve figured it out…this team is better when there is no actual game in the schedule. BC1764 and billikenbill like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Third seed, fourth seed, it really doesn't matter to me. We would have to go through both VCU and Dayton to win the tourney from either starting point. Right now, if the high seeds win through, we could play Mason, GW or Duquesne in our first game. But, not all 9 through 5 seeds will prevail. slufan13 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billlliiieeeessss I’m so ready to explode in celebr…. Not really. This season needs to come to a merciful end. More excited now about all the off-season speculation about NIL, how much we’re paying players, which low-major transfers are going to be superstars, and how awesome we’re going to be next year!!

Billlliiieeeessss Who do you want to play first, Duquesne or Mason, (or a faint chance, GW)? We could draw either of them in either 3rd or 4th, depending on the weekend games. Third place gets the same participation ribbon as 4th and maybe the same opponent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay Area Billiken Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 If SLU beats Dayton, DUQ wins at Fordham, and Mason wins at Richmond, SLU would be the 3 seed and potentially play 6 seed Fordham. I think that’s SLU’s best scenario, although it would set up an intra-family battle in this family. Fordham would have the home crowd. Duquesne and Mason are hot teams.

Give me Dayton on a neutral, then a team that upset VCU in the final. Bizziken likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to delve to deep into the weeds.....The best case scenario to finish 3rd is we beat Dayton and Duq beats Fham....chances of that happening are 16% and that is the best case ....any other 3rd place finishes go downhill from there. In your example above, the probability of that happening is 6%. Again the most likely outcome as of right now is we finish 4th and face DQ in our 1st game.....Mason would be our 2nd best possibility and there is even a 3rd possibility (in that 16% area) where we face GW (they would have to beat VCU in their game on Sat. ) BrettJollyComedyHour likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
