In an appetizer to the main course that is March Madness, Yale outlasted Brown in Sunday's delicious Ivy League tournament final.
Trailing by one in the waning seconds, Yale guard Bez Mbeng drove into the lane and fed a wide-open Matt Knowling, who swished a one-handed floater at the buzzer. Knowling's basket unleashed a wild celebration as the Bulldogs deprived Brown of its first NCAA tournament appearance since 1986.
Had Rebet been live on Sunday, scores of college hoops fans could have engaged with their followers in real time on the platform. As happenstance, the social sportsbook launched on Monday, one day before the First Four in Dayton. The platform is dubbed as the market's first-of-its-kind, free-to-play social sportsbook. Conceived by several Dartmouth College students, Rebet brings a community-centric approach to the social sports betting experience.
“At the heart, Rebet is really the first-of-its-kind, free-to-play social sportsbook where fans can connect, share, and celebrate their love for sports together,” Rebet CEO Carson Hubbard told . “We see Rebet as filling a void in the current sports betting experience.”
