DraftKings has a promo for ISU to the Elite Eight boosted to +200 from +110. Am I looking through cardinal colored glasses thinking this should be a minimum expectation given the draw?
DK’s ISU promo
- Thread starter Clonehomer
- Start date
BYU can beat Illinois and they were tough for us twice. I don’t want to play then a 3rd time.
Houston played with about 5 guys. 9 got minutes, but only 3 of those who started played much and 2 of the bench guys got considerably more run than they’d seen all season. Another bench guy played 3 minutes, so I assume he was a walk-on who was guarding Kelderman at the end.
J’wan Roberts played 13 minutes, and those 13 were probably 13 too many, after averaging 27 mins/ game during the season.
Malik Wilson played 31 minutes after averaging 15 mins/game all season.
Cedric Lath played 21 minutes after averaging 5 mins/game, probably mostly in mop up duty, all season.
The win was great, but let’s not pretend Houston was anywhere near full strength.
Assuming we make it that far, I would much rather play Illinois than BYU.
To the OP, +200 to the E8 is “ok”. Kinda meh, IMO.
