It's hard to see this ending up anything but UConn vs Purdue which will be a really fun matchup.

As far as spreads go I think I may put a couple of bucks on a UConn -11.5 and NC St +9.5 parlay.

Purdue is currently -9.5 against NC State and -450 on the MONEYLINE.

SPREAD: 72% of the total bets on NC State, with 73% of the total handle on NC State.

MONEYLINE: 93% of the total bets on NC State, with 81% of the total handle on NC State.

How many times has Nc State stripped Edey in the post?

Purdue opening it up.

Hopefully this next one will be more competitive....but unlikely

Sounds like a potential redemption story arc like Virginia

One year ago, Purdue suffered the biggest upset in the history of the NCAA Tournament when it lost to Fairleigh Dickinson.

On Monday, it will play for a national title.

Anarchy?

Nope. Just College Basketball. https://t.co/e1m6m6DSfa

Per a UConn spokesman, Donovan Clingan injured his right hand in practice yesterday. That explains why there's a wrap around it today.

The amount of commercials in these games are ridiculous

I was hoping both B1G and SEC would lose. Purdue has been the biggest surprise to me because they skated by one point wins in conference. Bama has surprised but I'm hoping UConn wins it all just to keep SEC and B1G out.

Clingan vs. Edey in the final should be fun to watch. Goliath vs. Goliath.

The early line is UConn -6

uconn is saving me from bracket ignominy........

UConn favored by 6.5 points over Purdue on @BetMGM.

Seems like a LOT of points to me in what many of us feel is a pick ‘em type of game.

Funny as UConn has covered every single game in this tournament.

Looking forward to tomorrow's championship game. Hats off to committee who got #1 vs #1 seeds in both women's and men's championships. Now explain to me how someone is overall #1 seed and #2 #1 seed etcetera. I think they said TARHEELS were 4th#1 seed

I'm by no means certain but I think the teams are all ranked #1-68 and seeded in groups of four:
#1 seeds: 1, 5, 9, 13, etc
#2 seeds: 2, 6, 10, 14, etc
#3 seeds: 3, 7, 11, 15, etc
#4 seeds: 4, 8, 12, 16, etc

It's their version of the AP or coaches poll but based upon actual metrics (ie NET rankings) and carried more weight obviously.

It's the most logical way to do it.

And it's about the same five commercials over and over again.
