what a stupid phrase. "under the weather."
what does that even mean?

The Phrase finder provides an explanation of the origin:
: To be under the weather is to be unwell. This comes again from a maritime source. In the old days, when a sailor was unwell, he was sent down below to help his recovery, under the deck and away from the weather.
... Here's a similar one I found: "Under the weather. To feel ill. Originally it meant to feel seasick or to be adversely affected by bad weather. The term is correctly 'under the weather bow' which is a gloomy prospect; the weather bow is the side upon which all the rotten weather is blowing." From "Salty Dog Talk: The Nautical Origins of Everyday Expressions" by Bill Beavis and Richard G. McCloskey (Sheridan House, Dobbs Ferry, N.Y., 1995. First published in Great Britain, 1983).
Another site states that something similar:
Passengers aboard ships become seasick most frequently during times of rough seas and bad weather. Seasickness is caused by the constant rocking motion of the ship. Sick passengers go below deck, which provides shelter from the weather, but just as importantly the sway is not as great below deck, low on the ship.
In both cases, we have two things in common. One, is its origin came from sea travel, when people felt ill due to several reasons, and the other thing in common, is that they both cited the fact that the persons feeling unwell went below deck.

kansas state looks like a good bet. you are getting a co-champion at +350 while the other co-champion is -200.
i mean, the teams are equal, right? :dunno:

Oh man...

i think that's how it works. we should ask our little bro though, since they're so good at sharing.

Anyone have any farms left to bet? :kstategrad:

Well I bet a farm we would win the Big 12 when we were getting +800 odds, so yeah, I have 8 farms.

I want Baylor in the semis. How sweet would it be to go 6-0 vs Texas & Baylor? :love:
-
As far as NCAA seeding goes, it would be better to get OSU and win, than to beat Baylor again. Both for strength of opponent reasons, but also for righting a recent wrong/loss.

smart money is OSU +450
-
Baylor +800 also isn't bad

No team lower than 3 seed has ever won, FWIW.

I stuck that info into the sd super computer that processes all my analytics for my bets (it's my brain, lol) and it told me that the big 12 has never been this sucky at the top. then it said YOLO.

thanks for confirming.

Also, this is only the 2nd year of the top 6 getting byes - a lower seed will win this thing before long if we don't expand.

Right, but beating Baylor is better than losing to OSU, so I'd prefer Baylor. We've beat them twice and just match up better.
