I never bet against the field, but at the same time it’s hard to bet against those three. I do however never bet against one of those teams though.Would you take those three, or would you take the field if you had to bet your life savings?
I’m 100% positive that Villanova will be the first team to lose out of the 3 listed in the OP.Duke. Lol. Teams that don’t play any defense don’t win titles.

I’d rather bet $100 that Purdue doesn’t make the Elite 8.Would you like to wager on this?

I said that to a Villanova fan on purpose.Ok but Im offering Villanova not losing before MSU and Duke like you suggested instead.

Purdue bet?
Yeah. I don’t have any faith in Purdue either.No thanks on the Purdue bet. Hopefully youll change your mind when Butler beats Nova tomorrow and decide to take me up.

Get back at me once you’ve had a few drinks and we’ll revisit this bet.Besides 2015 Kentucky, if they even were, there might not have ever been a team who was even odds to reach the elite 8 in December.
You really need to give me correct odds to take that bet, whether it be Purdue or anyone else.

Gotta take the the fieldThis is tough. The separation between the top three and the rest is pretty big, but this is college basketball and anything can happen. While I’d list those three as the favs, I’d give each about 1:8 odds to win. And 5:8>3:8.
For dumbsh*ts who need 3rd grade math explained ( roughly a third of the board) I took the field.

I quite agree with you. If you gave Arizona State and like A&M I’d take those 5. I think Zona St and those top three kinda have some separation imo. I think there is a bit of a drop off to number 5. Honestly any of those teams could make a push (might be the big ten homer in me but I think Purdue might make a push and take that 5 spot, but so could many other teams)All three have proven to be contenders, but I'm not sure any of them have truly separated themselves.
I don't think a Duke team that is defensively-challenged and lost to BC can claim to be on another level from other upper tier teams. Not yet anyway.
Villanova may have some good pieces, but what have they really proven? Their best win is over a moderately talented and inconsistent Gonzaga team.
If anything has been proven in this young season, it's that there's more parity than ever. High majors struggling with midmajors every night.
BTW, anyone who dismisses Ariz St as a possible contender either hasn't seen them play or is biased because of the name on the jersey. If they wore Carolina blue, I can guarantee they'd be viewed as a contender, if not the favorite.
If Arizona or Kentucky put it all together, they have the talent to join the conversation. A&M might be in the mix. If/when KU gets its big men eligible, they probably vault up there. And even a team like Oklahoma or Purdue could contend. Too soon to tell.
Butler is not beating Nova tmrw. This isn’t last year where Nova had no bigs.
Why did the defense let them do that?If you can hit 11 3’s in a row you too can squeak past Villanova on your home court.

Villinova sucks at defense. Butler was also up by 22 at 1 point.If you can hit 11 3’s in a row you too can squeak past Villanova on your home court.
Good call.No thanks on the Purdue bet. Hopefully youll change your mind when Butler beats Nova tomorrow and decide to take me up.
