Title: B-ball bracket and odds
Post by: BillT on March 18, 2013, 05:45:59 PM
I am not too up on college b-ball this season, but I found a quick way to catch up on the playoffs.
Here is a very comprehensive summary of odds for all the teams at all bracket levels both as a number matrix and in a very nice graphic.

Some of you will probably be happy with these odds.
