One of the favorites in the tournament is missing a key -- Syracuse has -- mellow outlook ruled ineligible just couple days ago.
That's sent Las Vegas into a frenzy changing the all of us.
Joining us now is -- -- -- He's the director of the race and sports book have to win -- like crime -- When you heard this news media at all you guys in the room and decide how you would change the odds -- -- accused did you.
We did but first of law Stuart I'm glad you know nothing about basketball because anything I tell you you'll believe I will itself if -- you have to go ahead -- -- We we did have to make a move enough -- mellow.
Is not so argues his biggest score he averages about seven points a game but he's big on the rebound in the block shots and he's a presence in -- -- at seven feet.
So we did have to adjust those -- the opening number was eighteen on that -- Syracuse against.
And C cash flow drop to fifteen and a half and so therefore there was two and hit F point drop on the game itself.
And as far as winning the entire turn it Syracuse was six -- one before the -- now twelve to one.
OK so other than Syracuse I want you to tell me who of the top three favorites to win at all.
Well I guess you can go by this -- and Kentucky is the number one seed in the entire internment there were very young team.
But clearly to most talented team and it turned -- it.
They're gonna be followed by teams like cut Kansas is going to be one of your favorites North Carolina is going to be -- -- your favorites and also you're gonna have teams like.
Duke in Missouri and Ohio State all those teams are gonna be ranked one or two and have a chance to win it.
But as we -- -- their greatest tournament there are a lot of surprises.
To determine not see -- most likely one -- through.
Teams who lure your better saying I have the best chance to break through -- pull -- cents.
Well Kentucky has the most money in the future but this future books been up for about ten months so there's a lot of money on Kentucky.
But there are people taken shots on teams like Missouri attend a one.
Taken shots at Louisville at 35 to one and that's what you need to look.
You need to put up a little to get a lot he can't that Kentucky get to -- one because there's really no value there.
How much it was the odds on -- look -- I am told reliably that -- is made it to this suggests they had I have my Harvard graduate I will be tuned in.
And I am deeply committed so what's the odds -- I also -- a Harvard graduate.
Now have a heart however it is of that 350.
To one to win it turned limit -- how about Lehigh because we I believe they are and it's.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- I'm not look -- -- it's are very high.
One of the highest in the turn it.
So Li I mean how many get a 1009 maybe that's right you know look I said at the beginning here that I really know nothing about about school -- that's really true.
And I'm in full by -- Johnny and the people around this table who say that literally millions of people are going to be glued to TV screens today.
They'll be -- in the office -- this is a huge big deal.
I take it that for that that takes a lot of money away from Vegas because they're betting on the office -- -- -- -- -- Right.
Not sure -- -- -- because if you want to bet legally indeed become the Nevada.
And we are gonna have so many people in the state over the next four days that I'm not sure there's room for many more.
So we're not really worried about the office pools all like to say -- good luck to everyone out there and be careful that the FBI doesn't knock on your door today.
Ha ha -- that was an advertisement for the -- sports book if I'm not mistaken.
Just give us what -- -- -- if we donated by Johnny that we are really appreciate you being with us thank you very much indeed so appreciate it.
Thank you soon have a good day.
Out of relative on him talking vascular nothing about it did you did find that this is as big as -- -- further champions cup first division this is it.
All right well even bigger than that come on now bigger than -- feeling any.
