- 0:06Welcome to nature daily wager. I ain't picking winners but I am
- 0:10making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:21March 19th, 2026 and it's here. March Madness is officially
- 0:27here. Oh what a glorious weekend.
- 0:30Lots of dudes yesterday getting their balls snipped so they can
- 0:33just hang around, have the excuse of having ice pack,
- 0:37keeping their vasectomies swelling down, watching the tube
- 0:40while their tubes are snipped, and just soaking in the
- 0:43basketball. Oh man, what a time to be an
- 0:45American, huh? Love it All right, so last night
- 0:50playing game, as we were thinking, as we were hoping, as
- 0:53the numbers were telling us, Miami of Ohio went out there not
- 0:57only covered, but they won because that's what the numbers
- 1:00were telling us, right? So today, looking across these
- 1:03slates of games, there's another one of these that the numbers
- 1:05are looking at that I'm looking at.
- 1:07The numbers jump out at me and this is a classic 512 matchup
- 1:12that's ripe for an upset. But I don't necessarily have to
- 1:15worry about the upset. What I care about is that cover
- 1:17we got high point and Wisconsin high point.
- 1:20Another one of those teams likes to shoot, likes to make them
- 1:23when they shoot great true field goal percentage and they shoot.
- 1:27It goes in Wisconsin on the other side, not always the best.
- 1:30They grind. So this is going to stay a
- 1:32little lower and gonna have one team making shots.
- 1:36Another team it's going to be relying on second chances and
- 1:39I'm getting 10 1/2. As long as that score stays low,
- 1:43that 10 1/2 is a pretty high percentage of the overall total
- 1:47number of points it's going to be scored.
- 1:49So I like that. And I think they got a chance to
- 1:51pull off the upset, so that's what we're going to do.
- 1:54So we're going to take High Point plus 10 1/2.
- 1:57I don't even know what their mascot is.
- 1:59Panthers. So we're going to take the High
- 2:01Point Panthers plus 10 1/2 against the Wisconsin Badgers in
- 2:05today's NCAA men's college basketball tournament hoops
- 2:10action. See anything better than that?
- 2:12Pound it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 2:14to it. Don't forget to rate, review,
