I've lived in Vegas for 5 yrs, but am not a sports bettor... that being said, I'll take any and all action right now that we get a NCAA bid. Judging from the board tonight, I will not only get some takers, but a few people may even give me odds.
Our cushion before Wed vs the other bubble teams was huge and very underrated. After these two losses, it has diminished quite a bit, but we're still in by about 5 or 6 teams. If we lose Tuesday, it'd be brutal and we'll have Selection Sunday sweat... but we're still probably getting in via play-in game. Not looking to jinx it, but looking at the Clemson's, St Mary's, and Georgia's of the bubble-world, I still feel pretty good.

A breathe of fresh air in here tonight! Thank you.
No problem... just looking to make some easy money. There's at least a dozen online right now saying we're NIT-bound. How many would put their money where their mouth is? If there was a legit secure way for me not to be stiffed, I'd take all the action I could.

A dozen...nah...I'll bet there are 5-7 people saying NIT. What most people are saying is we aren't a LOCK yet, regardless of how much people want to make it so, we simply aren't. We lose Tuesday....ouch. A bunch of upsets in tournaments...ouch. But I don't get the sense there are dozen people saying NIT.
Tuesday, however, is a must win IMO. I know not everyone agrees with that.
