00:00And it's a good time to give you, there it is, look at it all, the big board here from
00:05the SportsCritic Graphics.
00:06We love it as we get a little closer to the Final Four in San Antonio on the Riverwalk
00:13at the Alamo Dome and coming up a week from Saturday.
00:18NCAA tournament betting update for you.
00:21Favorites so far in the tournament, 28 and 24.
00:26So favorites covering just a little bit more.
00:29Favorites of six or more though, Scottie, how about this?
00:31Big favorites, 19 and 9, 66% against the spreads.
00:36Teams getting the public money, down 22 and 28 against the spread.
00:40The Big Ten's been the best, 12 and 4.
00:43ATS.
00:44Unders, 28 and 24.
00:47And if you bet $100 on every underdog, which people sometimes do in the tournament, you
00:52would be down almost $1,700, been like that.
00:56Oh, isn't that great?
00:57So what happens every year in this tournament is all of these morons bet on all these underdogs.
01:05All they do, Sunday when the selections are made and the brackets are made, everyone and
01:10their mother and brother and sister and uncle and cousin tells you about all the upsets
01:17that are going to happen.
01:18And they just rattle off all of these 12, 5, and all the 16s are going to do it this
01:25year and all these other upsets.
01:28And then this year, none of them happened.
01:31I mean, what upset was there?
01:33Just McNeese?
01:35And then they got their ass beat.
01:37So what's happened here is, as we've said yesterday, this is a bracket now in the regionals
01:43of nothing but heavyweights.
01:46There's no small schools involved at all.
01:50The Gales, none of them.
01:51There's none of them there.
01:52So some people are saying that this is the future of the NCAA tournament, that with NIL
02:00and money comes power, comes strength, comes, we're too big for you, you're not beating us.
02:08So it's essentially given us tons of bad games.
02:14Which hopefully now will equate to tons of good games, you would think, with just 16
02:19left and most of them being heavies.
02:21You would think that the coin will flip now.
