Duke Upset by Lehigh: Major Bracket Buster as Oddsmakers Make Out Big
One of the biggest upsets of the 2012 NCAA Basketball Tournament thus far is Lehigh upsetting Duke. Oddsmakers made out like bandits with this one, however, nearly every bracket went busto. Lehigh game odds will be available at BetOnline.com here shortly.
Lehigh, which won the game 75-70, became only the sixth 15 seed to pull off this feat while Duke dropped its first tournament game for only the second time in the past 16 years.
While the Mountain Hawks shot just 38 percent from the field, Duke hit just 6 of 26 shots from 3-point range.
Lehigh was such a long shot of winning either a regional or the Championship that oddsmakers included this school among the “field” choices. In other words, Lehigh was not given odds to win anything.
