If DT readers don't listen to me about anything else, listen to this: Bet against the Mountain West. At every opportunity. This is the most fraudulent conference in the country.

5-6-1 -215

UCSB (2nd half) +1/2 165/150

They've been historically bad in the tourney relative to their seed- why do you feel this strongly this year?

Honestly? Because I've watched more MWC games than I've watched in the past. A lot of years, I just looked their resumes up and down, but I've watched the teams this year and.. they suck. They're nothing special. New Mexico is OK, BYU is OK, UNLV and San Diego State are both garbage. If any BCS conference teams were struggling against the likes of Colorado State and TCU in their conference tourneys, we'd all be eviscerating them, but the MWC powers get a pass for some reason. I'm crossing my fingers for a New Mexico/Wofford or BYU/Murray State first round matchup. I'd mortgage most of my possessions to bet the underdogs on the money line in those matchups.

You have to say that Fredette's pretty good.

Interesting take... I've seen them virtually not at all this year because I don't have the Mtn network anymore since I moved to Ky. I'll take your word for it and be careful with them in my brackets. I was under the impression that they were the real deal this year.

Just the way I wrote it up :rolleyes:

6-6-1 -65

Wanted to wait till halftime on this USU/NMSU game to see how they played out. Going to swing at USU 2nd half if the number is right.

dalakhani 03-13-2010 10:16 PM

They let them play in the big east.

G'town v WV ended up a push right?

Butler's still a gagger, and Huggins is still a soulless douchebag, I don't care what anyone says.

IDC really. When West Virginia gags as usual in the 2nd round and everyone is looking for explanations, I'll feign shock. There's a reason Huggins never got back to the Final Four after '92. His teams are soft as baby sh it. They manages to outstagger an exhausted 8-seed because JT3 was too stupid to call a timeout and draw up a final play. Way to go.
