College B-ball bet of the night....
 
Tomorrow Night that is:

Virginia Tech -2.5 over Illinois!

I'm going to Vegas May 1 for my 21st B-Day and am risking $200 of my savings for the trip on this game, I feel pretty good about it, actually I feel REALLY good about this.



*Bonus Play*

Albany Money Line +300 over Virginia

I will only bet dogs. Therefore your fave bet is off the table.

IrishofNDMan 03-15-2007 06:19 PM

I like Albany a little, but I dislike Virginia a lot more, that is the key. I think Virginia is a very weak 4 seed, and would not be suprised at all if Albany beats them, I actually picked Albany in all of my brackets. What do I know though?!?!

Be careful dahoss indiana matches up very well with gonzaga, if they come out hot they will run them off the court.

IrishofNDMan 03-15-2007 09:29 PM

please guys, please make money with me on Va Tech -2.5 tomorrow. I want everyone on this board to make money. I'm not scared to make a bold prediction, but trust me, this team is DANGEROUS! They should win by 10+ tomorrow, and they will probably make a pretty good run.

skippy3481 03-15-2007 10:41 PM

Sorry dahoss nice call on wv though. Gonzaga just hasen't played a team with with 3 athletic guards. That and they aren't shooting particularly well either.

skippy3481 03-15-2007 10:47 PM

Kuso missed that first layup and went into the tank. He's better then that. Played some nice D though.

IrishofNDMan 03-16-2007 06:30 PM

This thread was Va Tech the entire time.

IrishofNDMan 03-16-2007 06:31 PM

I liked Notre Dame to cover 4, but I actually bet $200 on Va Tech -2.5 cause I never bet ND, I can't be them, I just don't like betting my team.

GPK 03-16-2007 06:32 PM

I will vouch for him Hoss...it was Va Tech when I saw it this morning.

Coach Pants 03-16-2007 08:21 PM

Yeah and the missed free throws. I'd be on tilt right now if I bet VT.

Exactly the same thought here. Terrible no call on that jumper the Illini took.Guy should have been at the line shooting two. But thats what refs do when a team starts to gag. And the Illini certainly did gag. Huge choke. Biggest of the tourney so far.

Coach Pants 03-16-2007 08:49 PM

Also...i'm not a UK fan but I want them to lose tonight for the sanity of the big blue faithful. If they don't fire Tubby there will be a revolt. Tubby Smith is a horrible coach. I think he's slightly retarded...not kidding.

This coming from a man located under a landing strip...

I think UK fans are retarded. They still believe Adolph Rupp is coaching an all white team that should win every year.
Now if you want retarded, let me refer you to Don Chaney, ex Temple coach. And Eddie Sutton and son, both driving liquored up.
