What Are the Payout Odds if Yale Beats Texas A&M in the NCAA Tournament?

The Yale vs. Texas A&M game is one of the most wagered on early for this year's NCAA Tournament, perhaps a result of the single digit spread (-7 Aggies), but it is the moneyline should Yale win outright that promises the sweetest payout.  The Bulldogs beating Texas A&M on the moneyline pays out $250 for every $100 bet.

What the Experts Think Will Happen

Shane McNichol of The Action Network writes of Yale's chances and why you might want to stick to the spread here:

Yale pulls a matchup against a tough opponent from the SEC in the Texas A&M Aggies, yet the Bulldogs will have a puncher’s chance.

A&M’s offense is exclusively dependent on dominating the glass. The Aggies shot the 317th-best 3-point percentage nationally this season, adding just the 293rd-ranked 2-point percentage. The Aggies get their shots blocked at the highest rate in college basketball, 364th in the country.

Yale does a solid job both defending the rim and protecting the glass. The Bulldogs rank 22nd nationally in defensive rebounding rate.

Against power conference foes, Yale had mixed results. The Bulldogs allowed Purdue to nab just five offensive boards, but surrendered 17 to Minnesota.

That stat could decide this matchup unless Yale hotshot John Poulakidas catches fire again.
