You don't sound like much of a Duke fan with comments like that.

Especially not when he posts on twitter he's going to UNC.

Kyle, make a promise to me right here and right now that you will never put your money on Zeigler or Central Michigan while he is employed there. Do this for me, and also for yourself.

Is this halftime play going to be the last play for the night?

Great backdoor cover by Florida (especially after I had Duke -7.5)...Thanks for doing this BTB, made it a great 24 hrs and great job on the charity too. Good luck to everyone for the rest of the night!

Haha I promise.

Whew, way to worked up after that Duke loss. Nothing is worse than your favorite team fucking you over.

How did you know how old I was?

Isn't everyone allowed at least one rant against their favorite team?

More important than my recently developed and recently lost hatred towards Duke, is the fact that BTB did a great job today. Wish I could have contributed more.

[BAsports]

Whats the 2nd half play?? I am confused. Sorry guys!

[rlag09]

Kansas and their white shooter getting it done early

[Beyond the Bets]

Thanks to all who participated and made this thing feel like "an event." Site traffic nearly quadrupled relative to usual numbers, so this idea seems to have been a hit and came together on pretty short notice. I'd love to turn this into an annual thing each year.

As for the "final play," I'll post it at halftime.

[BAsports]

Thanks for putting this together, Beyondthebets! This was amazing and awesome. Why wait annually to do this? Surely there are other opportunities that will present itself. Such as bowl season, march madness, nfl playoffs. etc...

[Beyond the Bets]

Bowl season is a definite "must," but in terms of an all-day, 24-hour event, I don't know if anything can top this.

[atk825]

Yah, this was definitely fun to follow...and there have been some pretty good suggestions for plays as well.

[Beyond the Bets]

Those of you without avatars, please get one if you can. Makes it easier to identify who you are.

[BAsports]

hahaha, definately a 24-hour all day event cant be replicated until 365 from now, but Im excited to have this during bowl season and march madness. Lots of great collaboration on picks that turned profitable, so great job guys!! Profit Center baby!!!!

[Beyond the Bets]

Actually, yeah, March Madness will be great. Conference tournaments, too, albeit to a lesser extent.

January 1 bowls could be good, too.

This was awesome man, you put what hell of an effort in. Best part for me? All that time you've snaked through this thread and updated a blog and kept the twitter community in the know...and your rep stayed the same Haha, thanks again BTB, you probably deserve some rest.
