NCAA BK Picks

831 Tenn/Michigan OVER 128 [QUOTE=bluehorseshoe;40786]Michigan will turn Tennessee over enough to get some quick scores.[/QUOTE] Tennessee scores 16 pints in the 2nd half and goes almost 9 minutes without a point; one thing to go without a FG but they did not even score a point. They shoot 3-18 from 3 and the craziest stat is that Michigan goes the whole game without a point from the line. They were 0-1. Missed the number by 8

845 StPeters +15 Let me say this, I know nothing about the St. Peters Peacocks. Thinking that this number was not moved since opening makes me like the pick even more. Also a Purdue team that will be dealing with the suspension of Barlow and that can be offensively challenged at times will keep this just inside the number.

856 unlv -2 This game could be very close and one could say that Illinois has the better talent, but they come into this with a very disappointing end to the season. They seem to be sputtering, only 6-7 in the last 13 games with 2 of those wins against Indiana and Iowa. Like the Rebels laying only 2

First Half 856 1UNLV -1 Like them to be up at the half on the way to winning the game.

2H 826 LI/UNC Under 83 Wont be at all surprised if this goes over the way the game is going. I think things will settle down a bit.

2nd half 840 2Marquette/Xavier UNDER 73 Shouldn't get this high.

838 Syracuse -13.5 I know this probably wont be a popular pick as the last NCAA tourney game of the day and a DD favorite, but Indiana St. is lucky to be here and Syracuse can hold some teams down in scoring. Probably worthwhile to buy the hook, but I will play the 13.5.

536 WMichigan -1 WMichigan should not have any trouble here against a young Buffalo team. It has been pretty rough 5-9-1 Yesterday putting it at 9-19-1 overall. Of course I had some rough breaks but I had more of just being on the wrong side. Might be a fade alert but I am going try and put together a winning day.

515 UCLA/Florida OVER 133.5 This probably is not a good play for anyone who is hesitant to not get the best number as this opened way lower. I am still thinking it is low and the movement is simply the books over correcting the much too low opener. This is not the same grind it out defensive UCLA teams of the past and Florida has also not shown a commitment to defense and seems content to score with opponents. They also have some players that will take some quick bad shots and UCLA is good in transition.

515 ucla +6 A lot of love and expectations for this Florida team especially after their blowout win. I just think this will be too close and like the 6. Both of these teams can be inconsistent, do like the fact the UCLA had to hang on a battle after blowing the huge lead and Florida was never threatened by any stretch.
