I just think it's bad luck. I lost Milwaukee by 1 point last night (a missed Richard Jefferson FT) and Miami by the hook (meaningless lay-up with 6 seconds left. I'm thinking about teasing, because when I lose these type of games it's only by a few points. Maybe that's the way to go.
Here's the games the public is on the dog today. Two currently qualify (Tennessee and Wisconsin), 3 could potentially qualify (UNC).
I think Tennessee is a good one. There is no doubt they are the better team. The public usually gobbles up the better team. Vegas introduces this line and bettors flock to Alabama. They're scared of laying that much chalk.
Thinking of teasing Tennessee, Wisconsin, and North Carolina. It would be a 3 team teaser Tennessee -5 UNC PK Wisconsin -8.5.
Right now here are the bets. I'm down 3.3 units in posted plays:
Tennessee -13 (2 units = BCS team)
Wisconsin -16.5 (3 units = BCS team and RLM)
