Latest / Nate's Daily Wager / Nate's NCAA Women's College Basketball Wager
Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:20March 23rd, 2026. And hey, can't be complaining.
- 0:26I was zigging when others were zagging and that over hit.
- 0:31Everybody else. Was expecting the under.
- 0:32I thought different boom came out in my favor.
- 0:36So nice clean sweep over this first weekend of the men's
- 0:40tournament. Wishing we had more NCAA men's
- 0:43games, but alas, that first weekend's over.
- 0:46We'll have to pick it up again next Thursday.
- 0:49But tonight we still do have the women's tournament.
- 0:52So I figure, hey, college basketball treating us well,
- 0:55maybe shift our analysis over there to the women's game, see
- 0:58if we can find us another nugget.
- 1:00Because let's be honest, I know just about as much over there as
- 1:04I do on some of these men's games.
- 1:06And I'll just look at the numbers, see what I see.
- 1:09Hopefully something will jump out at me, something will talk
- 1:11to me, something will say, hey, it looks like there's some value
- 1:14here. And I've found one.
- 1:16It is this Vanderbilt Illinois game, right?
- 1:20So Bandy is going in there or staying there, but technically
- 1:24the home team because they're the higher seed.
- 1:25There's a reason they're the higher seed.
- 1:27It's because they're the far superior team.
- 1:29They're the two seed. Illinois is the 7th seed.
- 1:31They had a Illinois had a hard fought match match up, I guess
- 1:35their ten seed opponent Colorado Buffaloes.
- 1:38So when I look at the numbers, I see that previous result and I
- 1:41see that the spread is 12 1/2. And then I remember it's the
- 1:44woman's game and tends to be a little more bias to the higher
- 1:49seeded teams. So I like this.
- 1:52This seems good. I think they can beat him down.
- 1:55Hopefully according to the algorithm, when I pump this in,
- 1:58should be 15 or 16. And we're giving up 12 1/2.
- 2:02So hopefully that works out in our favor and it still still
- 2:05gets us to win. So that's what we're going to
- 2:06do. So we're going to go Vanderbilt
- 2:09Commodores. Are they lady Commodores now?
- 2:12They're they're just The Commodores because it's, it's a
- 2:14rank. So it's gender neutral, as they
- 2:16say, like a walkway just in a military way and starts over.
- 2:20So we're going Vanderbilt Commodores -12 1/2 against the
- 2:24Fighting Illini of Illinois in tonight's NCAA women's college
- 2:29basketball tournament, March Madness action.
- 2:32See anything better than that? Pound it.
- 2:34That's my pick and I'm sticking to it.
