Where can I bet $75 that we don't win it to get a buck?

Why stop there?  Put up $75,000 and make some real money.

Maybe this should get moved to the Investing Thread over in The Superbar.  1.3% is a pretty good return these days.

Basically, until the bubble is finalized MU is one of the 75 teams that could win it.  After selection sunday our payout drops to 68 to 1.  Lock in your bet before that happens.

Never. The people that need the joke explained aren't worth explaining it to.

At one time they were 50-1. But since they have crapped all over they have dropped.

It's actually 100:1 as of a moment ago.

That's a good sign.  We should be in the field playing then more than likely.  Go Marquette.  I would have thought it would be over 100-1.

If we started 50:1 as a poster mentioned, them moved to 75:1, and are now at 100:1, that is not a positive sign.

I did not scroll though all the possible teams with odds but MU was way high of those I scrolled past.

Let's put some odds on whether they make the field.

How have this many hours of this thread gone by without someone posting the Jim Carrey "so you're saying there's a chance" meme?

So if you've placed a futures bet, and the game doesn't happen, the bet is refunded or credited, correct? 

Asking for a friend, he'd like his $75k back.

That's a nice down payment on finding a cure for the ProWojo Virus.

Have to imagine all futures bets are pushes, and you get your money back.  Kind of like betting on a baseball game that gets rained out. 

I doubt Vegas will honor the "push" until its officially official that its not happening.
