2013 ACC Tourney Odds - Wake +5.5

[grendel]

1. Miami (FL): +180

2. Duke: -140

3. North Carolina: +500

4. Virginia: +800

5. NC State: +450

6. Florida State: +1,800

7. Maryland: +2,000

8. Boston College: +5,000

9. Georgia Tech: +4,000

10. Wake Forest: +7,500

11. Clemson: +4,000

12. Virginia Tech: +10,000

as per topbet.com at bleacher report http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1561990-acc-tournament-2013-bracket-seeds-odds-matchups-and-more

So each of the following bets would net you $10,000. I'm going to group BC, GT, Wake, Clemson and VT as one entry at +2,000. Arbitrary best guess.

Miami: $5556
Duke: $14000
UNC: $2000
Virginia: $1250
NC State: $2222
Florida State: $556
Maryland: $500
Seeds 8-12 (the mighty five): $500

If you were compelled to put up your own money on one of the above wagers (you must wager the amount listed for whichever team you choose), who you got?

Out of those listed above I would take Miami and/or UNC.

 

[Wakeforest22890]

UVA and UNC if you're looking for value, if I'm actually betting I'd bet on Duke because Duke is going to win.

 

[Wakeforest22890]

First Round matchup odds from Kenneth

Georgia Tech 65, Boston College 63 (GT with 56% chance of winning)
N.C. State 84, Virginia Tech 71 (State with 84% chance of winning)
Maryland 71, Wake Forest 65 (Maryland with 72% chance of winning)
Clemson 61, Florida State 60 (Clemson with 51% chance of winning)

 

[Deacsfan27]

If the UMD line in Vegas opens at less than -10 I am betting on the Terps.

 

[RChildress107]

If its my money and I'm forced to wager I'd put it on the bottom five or Maryland. I have a feeling this is going to be a #goacc type of tournament

 

[Wakeforest22890]

I would be pretty surprised if Duke didn't win. Anything is possible though. I think Maryland opens around -6.5 or -7.5

 

[GSOWakeFan]

So you're saying we have a chance?

 

[grendel]

First line out I've seen has Wake +5.5.

 

[VaDeac]

+5.5? Did Dez Wells break his leg?

 

[TheIshThatSaved WakeForest]

Charles Mitchell ate Nick Faust.

 

[Deacsfan27]

This is the dumbest line I've ever seen.

 

[grendel]

o/u is 134, so Vegas is thinking Maryland 70 Wake 64.

Other lines:

NC State -12 against VT
GT -1 against BC
Florida State -2 against Clemson

 

[Prepareuranus]

I actually think wake beats md.

 

[wakedeac98]

This is the dumbest line I've ever seen.

Funny you say that. The dumbest line I've ever seen was Wake +4 last year against Maryland in the ACC tournament. I happened to be in Vegas for the first time then. Will never forget walking past the Sportsbook and seeing it. Seriously thought it was a typo. Let's just say my inside knowledge of [Redacted]'s incompetence paid for the entire trip that day.

 

[deacvision7]

I need to open up a sports gambling account again, it would seem.

 

[Partree]

don't forget every time we protest something the team plays well, so when the ad runs in the News & Record on Thursday.......

VEGAS READS THE BOARDS!!!

I actually think wake beats md.

I do too. I would hate it for CJ to not have won a game in the ACCT in his career.

Maybe we can get hot and make a run through the ACCT and NCAAT ala UCONN a couple years back who came from the middle of the Big East standings to win it all! :bowrofl:

 

[PhDeac]

If my memory is correct, CJ would be the first senior since Derrick Hicks to not win a single ACCT game.
