Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Villanova 20/1 national title future in 2018 followed immediately by Virginia 20/1 national title future in 2019.
Most Heartbreaking Bet
Kentucky -13 against Texas A&M on January 8th, 2019. Up 14, UK took a shot clock violation with 0.7 seconds left. The cameras cut to Calipari and Billy Kennedy shaking hands at half court, A&M hit a half-courter off-camera to lose by 11. Nightmare fuel.
