St. Joes at +1600???

Even if you don't like them to me this is a ridiculous price for a number 1 seed.

Dude:

The real odds are probably 100-1. They likely will get beat in the second round.

I agree. I dont' see them making the elite 8

so many people think they will get knocked out early...i wonder if wanderer is right.

If you do the math for each game using the anticipated ML, you will see that you should be getting a whole lot more than plus 1600 for St Joe's winning 6 straight games...

It's not even close...

Bad bet...

If you REALLY want to take St. Joe's in this manner, do an open ended 6 team parlay and then take them before each game...

what a great idea...however, last time I looked you cant keep parlays open more than 7 days in any book....

hey wanderer why is it such a ridiculous price on st joes? its a suckers bet and anyone who bets them to win it all is a fool...donate your money to a good cause ...they are not that "great" of a team...watch them go out early
