Anybody fire on some NCAA Tourney Futures?

Who is your squad? Longshot? Fav? This year seems wide open with a lot of good prices.

Brackets will be wild this year

Yes

Who really is a dominant player anymore? We use to have studs in college ball

The Purdue kid is good if they use him right

Have Houston at 8-1 and Marquette at 40-1. Houston price hasn’t changed much all year.

I believe in most situations for the NCAA tournament, if you play a team you like on the ML, then continue to roll it over each game it pays more than the futures price.

I am not into betting futures because I don't like to tie up my money but typically when I do I just throw a "just for fun" bet on my favorite team which in this case is Kentucky. I think it's wild that you can get them at +5500 at Bovada right now. I wouldn't touch that with your money but it might be worth a shot because this could be the year we see an 8 seed or lower win the whole thing because there is no dominant team.

In all seriousness though I like Kansas, Baylor, UCLA, Gonzaga and Arizona as potential future bets to cut down the nets. It's tough to repeat but Kansas looks to be the team to be the one with the fewest glaring weaknesses when looking for a potential champion. I won't be putting any money on a future but these are the teams I'll be looking at when filling out my brackets since I always fill out a couple of brackets.

Nice post. Have watched some Kansas, they are as good as anyone.

Just saw this as well. Crazy number.

Xavier at 40-1 looks like it’s worth a shot. When I bet futures in the tourney, I try to find teams that will be faves the majority of its tournament games. This helps combat what Fazz posted about money line roll overs. Don’t want to be holding a ticket with negative value. Can also offer decent scalp options deep in the tournament.

As a die hard Zona fan seeing Sean Miller win it with Xavier would leave a strange taste in my mouth.
