2011 NCAA Tournament Odds For Sunday’s Games: Third Round

2011 NCAA Tournament odds for Sunday March 20 Third Round games were available for betting at Bookmaker.com, the oldest established online sportsbook. 

Duke was coming in as the -11.5 favorite vs. Michigan as of Saturday morning.  Gambling911.com calculations indicate that the line should really be set at -9 in this game.  65 percent of those betting the spread were backing the Blue Devils.    The total on this game was set at 136.

The George Mason-Ohio State line was coming in at -10.5 with the overall number one-seeded Buckeyes favored.  This line is pretty much on the money we believe.  Close to 85 percent of the early spread action was on Ohio State, which is to be expected.  The total on this game was 135.5.

The Florida State-Notre Dame line had a number of -5 with the Fighting Irish favored.  Again, this line was pretty much on the money with a number that could be as high as -6.5 we feel.  As has been the case throughout much of this season, the betting public is overwhelmingly supporting Notre Dame on the spread at an 80 percent clip. 

Elsewhere, Kansas was an -8.5 point favorite vs. Illinois and, again, those odds seemed to be accurate.
