Prop Bets: Final Four Most Outstanding Player Best Bet:  Aday Mara (Michigan) +220. Longshot: Silas Demary Jr. +800

We’re finally here at the end of the college basketball season and another strong NCAA Tournament. The Final Four was not special after some great games in the Elite Eight. UConn handled Illinois by nine as a 1.5-point dog, while Michigan dominated No. 1 Arizona 91-73 as a 1.5-point underdog. UConn is going for its seventh NCAA title and third for Danny Hurley/.  Michigan is looking at its second and the first for Dusty May. The Wolverines are 1-6 in the national title games. 

UConn (9^th KenPom, 27^th in Adjusted Offense, 9^th in Adjusted Defense, 319^th in Adjusted Tempo). UConn beat No. 3 Illinois in the semifinal and dominated the game as a slight underdog. Tarris Reed Jr. dominated a big Illini frontcourt with 17 points and 11 rebounds, while Braylon Mullins, the hero in the Elite Eight, added 15 points on four 3-pointers. But it was the UConn defense that was the most impressive, holding a very good Illini offense (ranked first on KenPom) to just 34% shooting from the field and 23% from beyond the arc. They were outrebounded by nine. The Huskies arrived in Indianapolis by beating Furman by 11, UCLA by 16, No. 3 Michigan State by four, and No. 1 Duke 73-72 in one of the most incredible finishes in the history of the NCAA Tournament. Mullins nailed a 35-pointer with 0.4 seconds left to lead the Huskies to the come-from-behind win. UConn did not play well, shooting just 5 of 23 from beyond the arc (22%), and Mullins was 0-for-5 from 3-point range before he made that big shot. But Tarris Reed Jr. was phenomenal against Duke, dominating the paint with 26 points, nine rebounds, and four blocks. Alex Karaban, who went 2 for 10 against the Blue Devils, is having a great tournament, averaging 17.8 points on 39% shooting from 3-point range despite that poor shooting performance. But with the size of the Illini, they will need players like Silas Demary Jr. (39% 3pt), Karaban (38% 3pt in the regular season), and Mullins (33.7% 3pt reg season) to step up from the perimeter.

Strengths: Dan Hurley is one of the best coaches in the nation—very balanced scoring. Defense is elite, and they shoot 48.1% from the field. Reed can compete against any big man and is stronger than Mara. Just beat one very good Big 10 team. Weakness: Three-point shooting is mediocre for an elite team (35.2%, overall). Offense can be susceptible to droughts. 

Michigan (1^st KenPom, 4^th Adjusted Offense, 1^st Adjusted Defense, 22nd in Adjusted Tempo) blew the doors off of Arizona on Saturday night. That was despite losing star Yaxel Lendeborg for most of the game due to an MCL strain. He played just 15 minutes, scoring 11 points, while 7-3 center Aday Mara led the way with 26 points and nine rebounds. Lendeborg returned after going back to the locker room multiple times, despite (reportedly) the urges of family members to sit out. The Wolverines managed to shoot 44% (12 of 27) from 3-point range and went +12 in the rebounding margin against a top-five rebounding squad. 

Michigan arrived at the Final Four after destroying No. 6 Tennessee 95-62, No. 4 Alabama (90-77), Saint Louis (75-72), and Howard (101-80). They were defeated by Purdue in the Big 10 title game 80-72 as a 4.5-point favorite.

The Wolverines have a very talented squad, led by Lendeborg, who had 27 points and seven rebounds last Sunday against Tennessee. He is one of the best all-around players in the nation, averaging 15.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks, while shooting 52.3% from the field and 38.3% from beyond the arc. Mara (12.2ppg, 2.6bpg, 6.8rpg) has plenty of perimeter help led by UNC transfer Elliott Cadeau at the point, averaging 10.3 points and 5.9 assists, while shooting 37% from three-point range.

Michigan also has several players who might be taken in the first round of the NBA, along with Mara, Lendeborg and Morez Johnson (6-9, 250), who averages 13.1 points and 7.3 rebounds, while shooting 62.1% from the field. In terms of guards. Lendeborg is expected to play on Monday

Strengths: Size. They are eighth in rebound rate.  Number one in the nation in field goal defense (38.4%). Weaknesses: Not many. Guards are good, but they don’t have an explosive scorer.  They are 288^th in defensive turnover rate.

If you are betting on hockey, it’s important to know which teams are playing for seedings and which ones are out of the mix. The NHL Playoffs begin on April 18, and the regular season will end on April 16.

There are 16 teams the quality for the playoffs from the 32 teams, with eight coming from both conferences.  Teams that are fighting for playoff spots have more motivation and a sense of urgency. NHL teams don’t usually believe in load management, but players can go through the motions if they have nothing to play for aside from their individual stats.

Some points to remember:

A)The top three teams in each division automatically qualify for the playoffs. In the Eastern Conference, that would be Carolina (104 points), Tampa Bay (102 points), Montreal (100 points), and Buffalo (100 points). With 4-5 games left, there is still a lot to play for.

In the West, you have Colorado (110 pts), Dallas (102) and Minnesota (100), all from the Central Division, vying for the top three, and all of them have clinched at least a top-three.

B)The top three teams in each division automatically qualify for the playoffs. In the East, the Atlantic Division has Boston (95pts), still with a long shot of getting a top-three spot, but with just four games left. Pittsburgh (96pts), Philadelphia (90pts), Ottawa (90pts), Detroit (88pts), the NY Islanders (89pts) and Washington (87pts) are fighting for playoff spots in the East and the last two wild card spots.

In the West, there is a huge divide between the top three teams and the rest. Edmonton (87pts), Anaheim (87), Vegas (86) and Utah (86) are all vying for playoff spots. Edmonton, Anaheim, and Vegas are in the Pacific Division, along with the LA Kings (83) and San Jose (81), who all have shots of finishing in the top three of the Pacific Division or wild card spots. Nashville (82pts) and Winnipeg (80pts) are fighting for the last two wild-card spots in the conference, along with Utah.

The top division winner in each conference will play the second wild card team, and the other division winner will play the first wild card team. Right now, that will be Colorado vs the LA Kings in the West and Tampa Bay vs. Boston in the East.

The second and third-place teams in each division will match up with one another in the first round. Buffalo would play Montreal in the East, while Dallas would meet Minnesota in the West.

A Betting Guide for MMA

Some people only like to bet on team sports, but sharp bettors realize that a sport like UFC can be very profitable. Unlike boxing, UFC has a consistent schedule, where there is a card nearly every Saturday. Research is key because the better fighter doesn’t always win. They say styles make fights, and that’s important in UFC. Is he or she a wrestler or a striker? Wrestlers often control fights. The goal is not to just pick who has the best record.

• Ground experts dominate through control and submissions.
• Strikers dominate through damage and knockouts.
• Complete fighters who combine both tend to reach the top in today’s UFC.

Top Betting options:

1)Money Line

This is the most basic bet in MMA. If you lay -125 on a fighter, that means a winning bet of $125 would net $100 in addition to your initial stake. If you bet the underdog at +110, that would mean a winning bet of $100 would win $110 in addition to your initial stake. If you have a +200 odds, that means a better would have to place a $100 wager to receive a $200 profit if the wager was successful. A -200 odds means that a bettor would have to play a $100 bet to receive a $50 profit if the wager was successful.

2)Over/Under Rounds or Round Totals

The key to this bet is to wager on how long the fight will last. For example, let’s say a round total is set at 1.5 rounds. If you bet the under, then you think that the fight will end before 2:30 of the second round. If the O/U set is at 2.5, then go under if you think the fight will end in the first round. If you think it will end up longer than 2:30 into the third round, then the over is the play. It’s important to pay attention to whether the fight is scheduled for three or five rounds.

Also, make sure you know the history of both fighters and how they finish a fight, and how they have been finished. If you get a fight where two fighters who have never been stopped in their career, the value is on the over. However, if you have two big finishers, then you may consider the under.

3)Method of victory.

You can wager on the exact outcome of the fight. Whether it’s a KO, TKO, submission, or a judge’s decision. The judge’s decision is a difficult one to wager as you have to rely on all three judges’ scores to determine the winner.

4)MMA Parlay: These can be very profitable, but as with most parlays, you need to get all the outcomes selected correctly. You can choose four different fighters on a UFC card to win all their fights via a moneyline bet and parlay them. There are also SGP (Same Game Parlay) bets, which are structured around the same fight in MMA betting. Let’s say you pick Fighter A, and you want him to win by a decision, but also have the most significant strikes and most knockdowns in a fight. That would be an SGP bet and a profitable one if all legs hit.

5)Prop Bets

There are many different prop bets, including: 1)The number of significant strikes landed. 2)Number of submissions in the fight. 3)How many takedowns will be landed in the fight? 4)Whether the fight will be a unanimous decision. Not every prop will be available for every fight. Most props will be listed until a day or two prior to the event.
