Default Re: NCAABB Unranked vs Ranked 11/29

I got a new system for you guys. How about we always take the better team that's also GETTING points when playing an overrated public team. It'll be a huge winner!

Did it not occur to you that oftentimes the ranked team is themselves an overrated public team (e.g., Illinois)? And that maybe that's part of why the system works?

And that EVERY ranked-unranked game is going to look sketchy to people who believe more in their own gut than in math?

Congrats on the win if you took Illinois, but I really think UNC was the right side here. Indy, for example, took Illinois -2. That cannot possibly have been a good bet, but it won. People win sometimes at roulette too.
