“I’m really happy about Purdue’s play right now. I really think they’re going to win this (title).”
If the Boilermakers upset the Jayhawks, they will face the winner of Michigan-Oregon in the Elite Eight. 4-1 9-2 9-2 6-1 7-1 8-1 15-1 15-1 15-1 18-1 18-1 20-1 20-1 35-1 75-1 75-1 PARLAY PAYDAYS
A bettor at CG Technology hit a $160 eight-team parlay Friday that paid $15,000 at 94-1 odds. Eight-team parlays usually pay 150-1 — with a $160 wager paying $28,000 — but the player was paid the true odds for a seven-teamer because of a push on Dayton (+6). The seven winners were Florida Gulf Coast (+12), Rhode Island (+1), Xavier (+1.5), South Carolina (-1), Virginia-UNC Wilmington Over 135, Michigan-Oklahoma State Over 154 and Vanderbilt-Northwestern Over 130½.
Another CG Technology bettor wagered $80,000 to win $20,000 Thursday on a winning Purdue-West Virginia money-line parlay. TWO LIVES LEFT FOR WILDCATS
After Villanova, Northwestern and Kansas State were eliminated, Arizona and Kentucky are the only Wildcats remaining for bettors who wagered Yes (+280) to the Station Casinos prop bet, “Will a Wildcats team win the NCAA Tournament?”
The updated odds on the prop are Yes (+450) and No (-650). Contact reporter Todd Dewey at tdewey@reviewjournal. com or 702-383-0354. Follow @tdewey33 on Twitter.
