Cornell - Northeastern

So, we've got a game coming up, huh?

Galajda is doubtful for the Huskies. Boo.

Not surprising, unfortunately.  Hopefully McGrath can replicate his performance against Harvard at Lynch East.

I personally think Qpc probability for 1R should be significantly higher.

Agreed.  ASU is likely the 2nd weakest team in the field

Seems an appropriate time to remind folks what happened when Touchdown met a husky in 1915.
"At the Cornell vs. Pennsylvania game of 1915, Touchdown was led out on the football field to meet the Penn mascot of the day, a large Husky. Just after this photo was taken, Touchdown raised his paw and smacked the other animal hard enough to send it tumbling to the ground."

They are 25:1 by the .04 odds above.

Not being a betting person at all this is probably a dumb question.  When Cornell is 18-to-1 to win can you bet against that event (win $1 or pay out $18)?  If so I would think you could get rich just betting against popular teams based on their delusional-fan-goosed odds.

But I'm still never betting on anything.

Sports books set their odds with such delusions in mind - but more importantly, they also reserve the right to change the odds on the fly if the betting skews one particular direction (e.g., because the delusions are stronger than usual). Changing the odds doesn't affect the odds early bettors got, but it affects the odds for new bets, so don't worry, they're pretty sure always to make a profit, and you're pretty sure to end up in the hole.
