🏀 Scouting Report: Mar. 7
Bet "bettr" on this week's action 🤑
March has (finally) arrived, BettrNation family! We have already started refreshing ourselves on all things bracketology. (Anyone else feeling like this is the year for their perfect bracket? 🙋♂️) Not to be overshadowed by March Madness, the NFL captured the headlines last night with Maxx Crosby heading to Baltimore. (Jerry Jones and the Cowboys reportedly got outbid, which tells you everything about how badly Baltimore wanted him! 😬) Meanwhile the rest of the NFL pre-free agency wire was equally chaotic: Geno Smith getting cut in Vegas, Kyler Murray reportedly being released in Arizona, Stefon Diggs out in New England, and Trent McDuffie shipped to LA. Free agency doesn't even open until March 11 and the league is already on fire 🔥
On the college hoops front, Selection Sunday is 1️⃣ week away and the slate today is a bracket-builder's dream: UNC heads to Cameron Indoor to take on Duke in college basketball’s most heated rivalry; Florida visits Kentucky in an epic SEC matchup while Vanderbilt travels to Tennessee in another SEC showdown with seeding implications; and Texas Tech heads out to BYU late in a ranked matchup. Oh, and Arizona closes the night at Colorado for those of you with no bedtime and a healthy bankroll 😏 Conference tournaments start this next week, March Madness brackets lock in next Sunday, and every single line on today's slate means something 🙌
Another busy week behind us. Better weekend ahead. Let's find the edge. 🎯
