Loss | -104 | 7 h 49 m | Show |
This Virginia team is really good and my thought before the tournament was they would win the whole thing as long as they didn’t have to play Duke. Even though Duke is long gone I’ve changed my mind. Watching this Texas Tech team play for the last few weeks has been eye opening. They are a special team who have dominated all 5 opponents In the tourney. It’s shocking to say that I believe they are the better defensive team in this matchup. I think they control the game against Virginia who should have lost their last 2 games to team who aren’t as good as Tech. The Pick: Take Texas Tech |

Texas Tech +2.5 v. Michigan State | | 61-51 |
Win | 100 | 31 h 38 m | Show |
This Texas Tech team has been playing like one of the best teams in the country for 2 months now. Since February 4th the Red Raiders are 13-1 straight up and 12-2 against the spread. Their loss to West Virginia in the Big12 tourney obviously lit a fire under this team because they've steam rolled through this tournament including beating a Gonzaga team who was arguably the best team Mark Few has ever had. Michigan State is solid in almost every area and could easily be cutting the nets down on Monday but I think they'll have trouble with Tech's defense, athleticism and containing Jarrett Culver who is a lottery pick and the best player left in this tournament. The money line is tempting but I'm taking the points. The Pick: Take Texas Tech More picks may be added including totals on both games |

Auburn v. Virginia -5 | | 62-63 |
Loss | -115 | 29 h 31 m | Show |
I love this Auburn team and have made a good amount of money on them this last month but I think this is the end of line. Virginia is coming to the Final Four on a mission to totally erase the embarrassment of last season's first round loss and with a full week to prepare for the Tigers without Chuma I think their defense locks Auburn up. Virginia will run Auburn off The 3 point line like Kentucky did but the difference is the driving lanes won't be there for Auburn like they were against the Wildcats. The Pick: Lay The Points and Bet Virginia. More Picks Will be added including Michigan State/Texas Tech Pick and a total on one or both games. |

South Florida +1.5 v. DePaul | | 77-65 |
Win | 100 | 4 h 17 m | Show |
In game 2 of the CBI Finals it took a lights out shooting performance from Depaul's Max Straus to force a game 3. DePaul got so hot in the first half they forced South Florida to play their pace which was their only chance at winning and despite leading by 11 at halftime they still should of lost the game. Depaul's second leading scorer went down with an injury in the game and will miss game 3 which means for the already short hand Blue Demons to have a chance Straus has to have an even better game. South Florida will make sure that doesn't happen. I look for a really competitive game with South Florida's defense winning it in the end. The Pick: Take South Florida. |

That being said I've faded Texas in back to back games and watched on tv as their defense ended both games in the first half. After watching both teams play in their last 2 games I'm going with Texas to win the NIT. The Pick: Take Texas |

Duke just doesn’t have enough 3 point shooting to get past a Michigan State team that may be the best all around team left in the tournament. The Pick: I’m betting Michigan State |

I faded Kentucky against Houston and still have no idea how the Cougars lost that game. Well I’m fading them again against an Auburn team that is fearless and will make Kentucky run for all 40 while shooting 3’s from every position. The injury to Chuma Okeke probably ruined the opportunity for Auburn to cut the nets down but I still like them to take down Kentucky. Money Line is tempting but I’ll take the points. The Pick: Take Auburn |

Win | 100 | 25 h 54 m | Show |
These two teams are very similar. The only difference is one team has been playing great basketball all season and the other got healthy and figured it out down the stretch. Oregon plays fantastic perimeter defense and if you drive Wooten blocks it into the first row. Virginia will have trouble scoring which will keep this game tight and low scoring the whole way. I've been riding Oregon for weeks and I see no reason to stop now getting this many points. I Like Virginia to win the game but Oregon covers and cashes our ticket. The Pick: Take Oregon May add more picks on Thursday |

Purdue v. Tennessee -1 | | 99-94 |
Loss | -110 | 22 h 50 m | Show |
I've watched a lot of Purdue this year and I'm not shocked they are here as I always thought they'd be in the Sweet Sixteen. I also thought when they matched up against any of the one or two seeds they'd lose. Tennessee may be the worst matchup for them at this point. The Volunteers are loaded with talent, size, length, speed and upperclassmen, a bad combination for Purdue. Iowa did Purdue no favors with that amazing comeback in round 2. Tennessee will be more focused than ever. The Pick: Take Tennessee May add more picks on Thursday |
03-28-19 |
Florida State +7.5 v. Gonzaga | | 58-72 |
Loss | -109 | 21 h 6 m | Show |
Gonzaga is a really good and balanced one seed but giving up this many points to a long and athletic Florida State team Is too many for me. There's an argument that Florida State is playing as well in anyone in the country. FSU is 16-2 in their last 18 games only losing at Carolina and at Duke during that stretch. They pretty easily controlled Vermont and dismantled Murray St with their pressure defense and balanced scoring. I Like this game to go right down to the wire so I'm taking the dog. The Pick: Take Florida State May add more picks on Thursday |

Loss | -107 | 21 h 40 m | Show |
These two teams are pretty much mirror images. Although both teams have scored in the high 70's during both NIT games, Neither of them is going to light up the scoreboard as both are terrible 3 point shooting teams. They both are two of the better defensive teams in the country when it comes to scoring defense. Colorado does have the edge in 3 point shooting defense which is a key Stat in these tournament games. But again these two are very similar and both are playing well enough to win this game and move on. But when I see what I consider is a coin flip and one team is getting this many points. I take them. The Pick: Take Colorado. |

Lipscomb v. NC State -3.5 | | 94-93 |
Loss | -109 | 20 h 36 m | Show |
I like Lipscomb, they have good upperclassmen leadership and can light up the scoreboard if they get hot from 3 which they do more times than not. That being said I think this is where their NIT run ends. NC State is is fantastic in defensive efficiency and they ar one of the best defensive teams in the country guarding against the 3. I think they are mor athletic, will have an advantage on the boards and they are playing at home. Add all that up and I'm laying the points. The Pick: Take NC State |
03-26-19 |
Creighton v. TCU -3.5 | | 58-71 |
Win | 100 | 9 h 29 m | Show |
TCU is the bigger, stronger more athletic team and will control the boards in this one. Creighton will try to use the 3 point shot to even things up As they shoot more than almost anyone in the country. TCU is ranked 20th in the nation in 3 point defense so I don't believe Creighton will get enough good looks from 3 to take down a hot TCU team playing at home. The Pick: Take TCU |

Laying these many points after watching these teams in round one makes me a little uncomfortable. but Washington was exposed and looked awful down the stretch including losing twice this month against Oregon who is long and athletic. Carolina is longer, more athletic and shoots better than Oregon. After they played like crap in round one they'll be laser focused. I see a Michigan State/Minnesota type game. Take Carolina
