Rabbi,
It's no longer the Sabbath and with all due respect, I disagree...
I was lucky enough to be in Worcester to watch the Vermont/Syracuse game in person, as well as ODU/Michigan State.
In the first game, Vermont demonstrated such poise and patience on the court when upsetting Syracuse. In fact, Vermont ran the shot clock down to under 10 seconds before they shot on virtually every possession...
In the second game, ODU decided to RUN with Michigan State which in retrospect, played right into Michigan State's strength. As an avid ODU fan, I was surprised that ODU did not slow the game down...
I believe VERMONT will try and shorten the game, because it gives this well coached team a better chance to win. Therefore, I like the UNDER a lot...
Oh, and I like VERMONT, too...
In my opinion, a parlay in this instance is an excellent bet since it is somewhat CORRELATED, which bookmakers despise...
THE SHRINK
