if in college basketball, in either the regular season or in the big dance, there is a limit to the number of overtimes?

Or do they keep playing until there is a winner?

Thank you for your response.

in the tournament after 2 over times they go to a half-court shoot off with each of the 5 original starters. if still tied , the 2 coaches play H-O-R-S-E to determine the win.

Then why play the money line instead of -.5 which is usually 5 cents to 10 cents cheaper?


Any reason I'm not aware of?

Thanks, again.

youre leaving yourself open to take all these shots, lol. you gotta expect this response.


but actually- what youre saying IS true. i dont know if anyones ever noticed it, but at olympic, if you like a team on the moneyline, you can often just buy the game down to -0.5 for sometimes a far cheaper price (i.e -440 instead of -500 or so). moneylines sometimes move when the game line doesnt, thus that throws the 'buying points' part out of whack and favs can be had cheaper by buying all the way down instead of the moneyline
