I have been drinking the Kool Aid, and had to put down a small wager at 300 to 1. Dang I hope it happens now, for multiple reasons, as I thought that was pretty good value. GO CLONES let me replace my truck w/260,000 miles!
Odds to win the Big Dance
- Thread starter idaclone
- Start date
I like the way this guy thinks. But unfortunately don't hold your breath... There will be a lot better teams than A&M in the tourney... Not saying its an impossibility but the road will be very difficult...
Stay thirsty my friend..

I honestly think it could happen. If they shoot well and stay out of foul trouble, they will be a difficult team to beat on a neutral floor. It just depends on how upset prone teams are going to be this year.
Too much kool-aid. Add a zero 3000:1 and you mihgt be in the ballpark. ISU hasn't even been in the final 4 since the 40's. They're in the final 4 of the big xii right now and won't win that. How can you give 300:1 odds?
That's great! Whatever you spent on that bet, even if you lose you get a good story out of the expense.
And I'm also thinking that by placing a wager on ISU's chances at winning the NCAA tournament title, you now have standing to sue the NCAA if we are wrongly overlooked on Selection Sunday. **

I was in Vegas once and bet on Green Bay to win the Super Bowl a few years ago. The odds were really bad for Green Bay since Rogers was out with a concusion and the season was not going great yet. Ended up winning 200 bucks. Can't remember how much I put down but it was pure luck
Oh come on now. Nobody ever drinks while gambling. That is why they don't allow alcohol in the LV casinos.
Come on now, there's a thread on HN titled "Is Aaron White the next Larry Bird"
Just like the guy that bet on a Giants safety for the first score of the Super Bowl.
