Like those odds on your regional winners. I have $500 to payout $1500 (+200) tomorrow on:

host UK > WMU
host ECU > Evansville
host UGA > Army
host Tennessee > NKU
host Arkansas > SE Missouri St
host Clemson > HPU
host Oklahoma St > Niagara
Wake Forest > VCU

2 years ago I bet a 16-team parlay (+1000 or so) on the regional hosts against the 4 seeds in game 1 and won.
1-seeds opened up 16-0 in 2022. Tried again last year but hosts went 14-2 last year in game 1.

That’s awesome… I usually say 1-3 1seeds will lose Day1….. the trick is avoiding the couple upsets. Your 2022 16-0 is damn awesome

Day1 of baseball tournament some money can be made. You know well lol. Very similar to first round of basketball tournament, if not better

tomorrow’s one of my favorite sports days of the year. Probably lends itself to LSUs success in baseball over basketball but I get more excited for baseball regionals than march madness. Especially betting wise.

Just realized I have a conference call today at 1 on something kind of important, and a kids awards thing at 2 for a basketball camp.

My wife may fist fight me if she is required to leave a tight LSU baseball game, and she took the early morning runs this morning to the 15 year olds training sessions and the 12 year old to go to cross country. I knew that chick was up and at em at 5:45 for a reason...earning those points.
