    The two most lopsided Sweet 16 spread wagers at BetMGM in terms of handle are No. 1 Florida (-6.5 vs. No. 4 Maryland) with 89% of the money and No. 2 Alabama (-4.5 vs. No. 6 BYU) with 87% of the money. DraftKings is seeing similar popularity with those two SEC teams, as those are the only two Sweet 16 spreads to move multiple points from their openers — Florida -4.5 to -6.5 and Alabama -3.5 to -5.5.
    The Sweet 16 matchup between No. 6 BYU and No. 2 Alabama easily has the highest total of the NCAA tournament so far. It currently resides at 175.5 at DraftKings after opening at 171.5. It’s even higher at Circa, as it was bet up from 175 to 176.
    “I don’t think that’ll be the last number; I think it will go even higher,” Bogdanovich said.

      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              I just checked and it doesn't appear they have tots at the Prudential Center.

                      Smoking fast pace. And Bama can hit open threes so we can’t sag off on them too much.

                        As good as Alabama is I'm not scared. We belong with the best of the teams and it's showing.
