A lot of poorer SQUAWK fans today. On the ESPN site, I found this nugget in a betting story:
• The most-popular bet on the board Thursday at PointsBet was fifth-seeded Iowa on the money-line to beat 12th-seeded Richmond straight up. More bets were placed and more money staked on the Hawkeyes than there was on any other team on the opening day of the round of 64.
Iowa was around a -560 favorite over Richmond. The Spiders won 67-63.
At PointsBet's sportsbook in Iowa, the Hawkeyes attracted the most bets and the most money wagered to win the national championship out of all the teams. The second-largest liability PointsBet faced on Thursday was Kentucky, which lost straight-up to Saint Peter's.
