Is IOWA at 200-1 to win NCAA basket title an overlay??

they will almost certainly be underdogs in at least 4 of their last 5 games in the tournament. they look like a lock for the tournament now but they could easily lose their next 4 games...

 

i would say 200-1 is about fair value

 

Spot on post for the most part.

 

They are the 3rd best team in the state.

 

Northern Iowa has an RPI of 12, Iowa about 50th........

 

 

 

Northern Iowa would have been a nice addition athletically for the Big Ten, from baskets, to football, to wresting and beyond.

 

I wonder if the Big 12 has ever approached them?

I grew up with his Dad and uncle both very talented players. I probably attended 15/20 of his HS games and Brady can light it up from 3. He's a little light but a year or 2 of weight work and I expect him to be a very good Big Ten player. Not the most athletic kid but very smart player who can get his shot off.

if you can find Kentucky even money maybe a par or slight overlay.

 

if for example skip game one they will be -30000 does not change anything.

 

say the true split money lines are then round 2 -1800

-1300 rd 3

-700 rd 4

-500 semis

-380 like a 7 1/2 pt fav for championship? (undefeated team going for it all seems reasonable but -11 would not shock me either)

 

then on quick calculation even is a tiny overlay at even money .

 

but thats months from now not really attractive. maybe if you can find +120

Just grabbed some 500-1 on Northern Iowa, definite overlay, however small.
