So ties going to #1 means that the #1 seed in the BTT is the official winner of the B1G for settling this bet?

Wisconsin (#18) only other B1G team ranked this week.

Yes, which surprises me since most things like that go to what we call "dead heat rule" which is essentially a chop of the odds by the number of teams tied. Used a lot in golf.

Golf wagers can be really interesting and complicated from what I've seen. What were the odds for Jon Rahm going into the back nine yesterday @ Kapalua?

We play 6 out of first 10 B1G games on the road (counting the Palestra as a road game). We have won the first 3. If we win 2 out of the next 3, we are in great shape.

Unfortunately I can't see things like that after the fact, but it had to be huge.

Have you heard of a "Straight Forecast" for golf? It's picking 1-2 in exact order in a golf tournament. It's hard enough to get the winner! We had a guy last year hit one in that Mexico tournament where Rahm was an enormous favorite. We were lucky that Finau ended up in a 3-way tie for 2nd so the payout was only 1/3 of what it would have been.

Had not heard that particular one, Chi-Boiler....good to know.

Of course with the purses now, those guys, themselves, can have huge swings of cash on the line with every putt coming down the stretch. Morikawa spent a small fortune on 14-16 yesterday......but he did find something with his putting this week perhaps.
