Lines are out.
First Four
Fairleigh Dickinson (+6) vs. Florida Gulf Coast
Vanderbilt (+3) vs. Wichita State
Southern (-2.5) vs. Holy Cross
Tulsa (+3.5) vs. Michigan
Some other early ones I'm looking at:
- Baylor only a 6 point favorite over Yale. They should cruise.
- Iona getting 7.5 against Iowa State
- Oklahoma only a 14-point favorite on Bakersfield is a joke. Bakersfield is horrible.

Hopefully Bovada posts lines before Wednesday afternoon

I've already locked in Oklahoma

I'm looking to play team total overs and first half spreads for some of the 1 and 2 seeds. I want to take Kansas but the spread might be too high. I'll be taking a long look at Michigan state(think they might be pissed about being disrespected), unc and Villanova (they do well against bigger spreads)

Kansas is a 26-point favorite, as of now.
I would post all the lines, but they'll change so much just from tonight to tomorrow night that it would be pointless.
If you want to bet 1 and 2 seeds, get them now. Except for maybe Xavier. Their line might stay right around where it is.

Bakersfield is not horrible. They have a couple scorers who can light it up with anyone when they are on. Tread lightly

Oklahoma is not the team they want to get into a shootout with.
Bakersfield is also considered a good defensive team. They won't have much luck stopping Oklahoma.
They played 3 mid-major to major conference teams this season (Saint Mary's, Fresno State, Arizona State), and they lost by an average of 20 points.
Oklahoma is on a different level.

I want first half spreads and team totals. Those won't be available til Wednesday at the earliest.
The biggest issue I'm having in capping right now is some of these teams played no power teams ooc, so I have no clue how they do against better talent. Middle Tennessee, unc Asheville, Bakersfield, etc. played nobody.

I bet Michigan will be a 5-point favorite by game time against Tulsa.

so you never saw Yale play, right?
6 is a lot.
Yale are rough. Think Marc Gasol.

Saw them play multiple times.
I like Baylor's size, length, athleticism. Besides last year, they've done pretty well early on in the tournament.

The OU game is also being played in Oklahoma City so it will be like a home game. Thinking of playing the first half to get a lower number. Also like Baylor. Will probably play first halves on all the 1 seeds as well.

The more I think about it, the more I want to take Oklahoma.
I just have a hard time capping Bakersfield because they played nobody. I also still have trouble disassociating the current wac from the wac conference that I grew up with that was pretty damn good.

West Virginia only giving 6 vs SFA jumps out. That's low for a 3/14 game
I love that OU line

Id take vandy and the points
Posted on 3/14/16 at 12:34 pm to DollaChoppa
Oh, I won't bet on Wichita in a single game they play
Posted on 3/14/16 at 1:19 pm to BayouBengals03
Be wary of Yale

Haven't locked in anyone but Oklahoma yet, but bring it on :sunglasses:

They played a very poor schedule, and the WAC was terrible this year.
I saw them twice late in the year. Wasn't overly impressed.

Sparty has cost me in the past. Izzo doesn't really run up the score that often, so those big first round spreads are not that good for him. He wins, but seems he has a tendency to win comfortably without a blowout in the 1st round.
I love OU.
