30-34 overall. Guaranteed losing tourney but cut into the deficit and only down 5.35 units which I think secures a winning three year betting pattern.
Also had only two live futures to win the title from the regular season and they were Illinois and UConn. Probably hedging 😂

1-1 Yesterday (Arizona missed by half a point which is even more annoying because I also bet them -6.5 and could have used that as the official one bet!) 28-34 overall (-7.17 units overall)
Michigan -7.5
UConn +5.5
Cardinal rule: always bet UConn in the tourney. We believe!
English
We’re running it back this year. One bet every NCAAT game. Same two rules:
1) don’t gamble with money you cannot afford to lose
2) don’t listen to random people’s bets on the internet
Tuesday:
UMBC -115
Texas -110
It’s tourney time!

35-32 overall for the tournament. Ended up .21 units. We went 40-27 last year, so 75-59 on NCAAT bets the last two seasons. Not bad! We will see you next year.

@morrisoncrying UConn fans are more in the UNC category. Grew up in the area and certainly Walmart hard core. But since I was always on the “any team that gets rid of Duke or UNC is great” I’ve always had a soft spot for UConn. But I get it haha
English
@morrisoncrying I’ve thought about this a lot moving to Mass from NC over a decade ago. Growing up UNC fanbase was intolerable living in NC but didn’t even know that many Duke fans but living out of state the Duke fanbase is just terrible. It’s like a professional fanbase and the NJ fans woo boy
English
Also have been workshopping a take that UConn is the new Duke, at least in the sense of what Duke represents in the sport. Duke's players aren't as hateable now, and K was the driving force behind them being so awful.

This feels like such a big generational divide to me between younger and older UK fans. I hate UConn a lot more; I was born after the 92 Laettner game, and UConn has inflicted a lot more NCAAT pain to UK in my lifetime than Duke.
English
@FanaticDeac Oh the Duke fan part. You missed, that’s not my account. I’m an ACC guy and Duke was playing. If that was Wake I’d be saying the same thing, that’s all.
English
Duke fans complaining ever about officiating is the cutest thing ever
Jon Pence@scacchoops
Yep. Things clearly changed at some point. Not sure if the flawed philosophy of “we have to even out fouls” was addressed by the refs. Seems like that is what happened.
English
@OdjHoops Agreed. Also it seems silly but if UConn had been even slightly below average instead of putrid from 3 for most of the game they would’ve been back and forth for the entirety
English
I don’t want to hear any of the Jon Scheyer late game discourse
UConn made incredible plays down the stretch and won the game. Scheyer didn’t turn the ball over, Cayden Boozer did.
Scheyer is elite and a Duke title will happen very soon
Painful end to an incredible year
English
@scacchoops I have no idea what this means. Stick to crying into your Cheerios Jon

Duke and UNC blew top six leads of all time in the same NCAA tournament.
This. Is. March.
English
We’ve got action!!!
The UConn interior passing out of the half court is a work of art. Reed is an absolute gem
English
@aj_holleman Defender didn’t “move into his path” he’s playing defense and wasn’t going to a spot and Boozer ejected him into troposphere. Even Gene said it was a charge
English
@FanaticDeac Get your eyes checked defender moved into his path. Relax refs gave UConn 7 fouls on Duke in 4 minutes
English
@aj_holleman Absolutely cannot throw your entire body into a guy and knock him down when both guys are moving
English
@FanaticDeac Have you watched games all year ?? They don’t call that plus he was moving
English
And we now have confirmation. As expected. Hope he comes back strong from the injury in the future.
English
Great finish by Duke. Really good game. St John’s was a tough out
English
St John’s has just been better so far tonight. What a game so far.
