Of course, we’re not gambling with American dollars. That would be illegal, so we use “standard betting units” here. (1 “standard betting unit” is approximately 1 American dollar. But it is definitely NOT an American dollar.)

From my previous post before the first round started. Winners are in bold, losers are in italics:

Good first round bets:
Washington -220
FSU -145
Utah -110
Illinois -200
Arizona St -200
Michigan +190 (This price is fantastic)
Texas A and M +115
Oklahoma St +115 (Seriously? They’re an underdog here?)
Ohio St -160

If you bet 100 “standard betting units” per game, you would have went 5-4 and be up 115.45 “standard betting units” at this point. That is a 12.8% return per bet. Not bad.

Cheers.
