    When all is said and done, I'm going to take a look at your play sheet for the day. I sure I'm going to see that you took the under.
    All kidding aside, I don't bet on UNCheat games unless they are playing Duke.

    I did pick Duke to beat the spread, -23.5 I think. I'm compelled to always make that pick. Degeneracy? Or maybe superstition? Feels like loyalty.

    The spread could be say 140 points, I'd still bet on us to beat it. Insane in the membrane.

    I've barely been able to keep up with Duke games, let alone other ACC games, and have continually forgotten to place bets.

    That being said, I have 3000 internet points riding on tonight. Go big or go home, right?

    Go bigger! Max bet available is 4,000

    What???
    It'll be a push: Carolina 139, State 24.

    After losing on three straight State games, I bet on Carolina (-10) to cover tonight so I'm fairly certain State will either win outright or lose by less than 10 points.

    I generally bet on UNC as a hedge. I would rather lose virtual points to see an actual loss, but if they win at least I have imaginary consolation.

    Of course, if they win by 10 tonight I'm doubly pissed.

    Violated my own rules...very degenerate...

    I ran afoul of two rules.......(that had carried me to squarely in the mediocre middle)

    Bet 500 on all games, ATS....(I'm at 62% on those...)

    Bet all OU, even though I swore them off. But only 100 each...(under 50% on OU)

    So I'll probably exit the middle tonight...God only knows in which direction.

    Man o man. If Pitt hits one or two FTs at end I hit the under and maybe get Pitt -3.

    Now overtime. There goes the under. Can Pitt win by 3+ on the road?

    And see that UNC half time score? The over looks like a Lock at this point. Wow.

    Pretty sure I will end the night 4-4, -200

    I would love to see UNC go into the four corners for the rest of the half.

    Four corners? Phil Ford? Time warp?

    Our team is so special this season. I swear -- at halftime, I turned to my buddy and said, "You know, we still have a 50/50 shot at this cover." And that's pretty much what it turned out to be in the final minute.

    If we were up by 10+ at the half, we may have had a lower possibility of covering. 2nd team would have played more minutes and K would have pulled up off the accelerator sooner.

    This is why big spreads and high over/under are dangerous. Unless, of course it’s UNC vs NCSU.

    I've been on a ridiculously bad slide for the last week or two, so that means tonight it's max bets on the two available games!

    As always, a huge thank you to Jason for organizing this which serves as an annual reminder that gambling real money on college basketball would go very poorly for me!

    February has been brutal. I'm down 1390 internet points in less than a week, and now that I'm somehow in second place I've gotten sucked into caring how well I do!

    I've been losing games left and right the past week which unfortunately places me in the situation of needing to wager more to stay competitive. Being super selective only works in conjunction with a high win percentage. I'm going with both underdogs tonight:

    Clemson (-4) at GT
    Miami (-3.5) home against Notre Dame

    This sounds an awful lot like our next opponent.

    Whoops. I meant to say I'm going with both favorites tonight. I've got Clemson and Miami.
