I'll take those odds - we winning it anyway.
 
Sure thing on MSU...

Michigan State, the Buffalo Bills of the Final Four.
 
Odds analysis:

These are independent events in the sense that 1 team will win and all the others will lose. Plus 1 and only 1 team will will with probability=1.00. Therefore, fair implied odds should be much lower, payout odds should be much higher. If Louisville is paying 3:1 then fair odds of them winning are 0.25: 3 times out of 4 I lose my dollar - 1 time out of 4 I make 3 dollars. If I add up the Wynn's implied odds for all teams then they add to 1.56, much higher than 1.00. Implied odds at this percentage for SU are 0.0625.

They are taking a 56% probability advantage, before the 10% vig, which they will charge. Interesting, prop bets are goldmines, apparently.

Interesting to see how our odds have risen, while Indiana's have fallen significantly.

for some reason silver originally had our odds of winning the regional final at 66% should we make it that far. i'm skeptical that we're that bad a matchup for indiana

that's probably pretty high relative to the rest of the teams which improves our chances. i am very skeptical of his analysis based on that
