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 |

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 |

Colorado +5.5 v. Texas | | 55-68 |
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. |
03-27-19 |
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 |

Coastal Carolina v. DePaul OVER 162.5 | | 87-92 |
Win | 100 | 21 h 33 m | Show |
Taking the Over in games with a total this high is not usually my thing but I think this total is too low. DePaul has thrown caution to the wind on both sides of the ball this month and are simply a run up and down the court team now. They've cashed 6 straight Overs scoring more than 90 points in 4 of those games and they've given up more than 80 points in 6 of their last 8. Coastal Carolina will gladly run with them proven by the fact they scored 109 in their last game vs West Virginia. They've scored 80 points in 5 of their last 8 games, including topping 90 in 4 of them. The Pick: Take The OVER Will Release Both NIT games! |

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 |

Both of these teams love to push pace but this number is too high. Green Bay scored a 100 points in their last game which helped push this total this high but they have gone Under the total in 6 of their last 9 games. FIU has gone Under in 7 of their last 10 and hasn't played a game that ended with more points than this total since January 19th. The Pick: Take The UNDER |

Liberty +9 v. Virginia Tech | | 58-67 |

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

Wofford v. Kentucky OVER 138.5 | | 56-62 |
Loss | -109 | 15 h 55 m | Show |
Wofford is one of the best offensive teams in the country and will not back down to Kentucky. They rank in the Top 10 in almost every offensive category and are deadly from 3 point range, ranked 2nd in the country. I think Kentucky will want to push the pace and Wofford will run with them. I see a back and forth game that goes over the total pretty easily. The Pick: Take The OVER More tournament games will be added in afternoon |

Loss | -104 | 23 h 52 m | Show |
Purdue is the better team here and I like them to move on but it won't be as easy as this line suggests. Old Dominion is a fantastic defensive team that is 5th in the country in scoring defensive and 8th in defensive efficiency. They play a Big Ten style of basketball that will suit us well for this bet. Look for them to slow this game down to a crawl and lose by single digits. The Pick: Take Old Dominion |
03-21-19 |
Baylor v. Syracuse -1.5 | | 78-69 |
Loss | -109 | 23 h 34 m | Show |
The fact that Syracuse guard Frank Howard is suspended for this game doesn't scare me away one bit because Tyus Battle is back and Buddy Boeheim became a legitimate starter and offensive threat in his absence. Jim Boeheim and his zone defense loves to destroy brackets in this tournament and I like them to have no problem against a Baylor team that hasn't won a game in the month of March yet and probably should be in the NIT. The Pick: Take Syracuse |
03-21-19 |
Seton Hall v. Wofford -2.5 | | 68-84 |
Win | 100 | 23 h 22 m | Show |
This line is shocking as Wofford is a team that I thought could make a run at the Final Four until they were put in a brutal region that would force them to have to most likely take down Kentucky and Houston before they got to North Carolina. Nevertheless I love them in this game. Seton Hall played well down the stretch but Wofford is a fantastic team on both sides of the ball who has been ranked in the top 25 for the last month. The Pick: Take Wofford |

There isn't much to say about this game except that the line and Nevada's seed are both pretty shocking. If you have seen them play this season (and I have seen them a lot) you would know what I'm talking about. Florida won't go down easy but Nevada is the better team and should cover this pretty easily. The Pick: Take Nevada |
03-21-19 |
Murray State +3.5 v. Marquette | | 83-64 |
Win | 100 | 19 h 44 m | Show |
Murray State will have the best player on the floor and that's saying a lot in a game that will also feature Markus Howard. But Ja Morant is the real deal and will be a top 5 pick in the NBA draft. It's not just about Morant as Murray State is one of the best offensive teams in the country who routinely scores in the 80's. Marquette on the other hand has been awful for about a month now losing 5 of 6. The Pick: Take Murray State |
03-21-19 |
Belmont +3.5 v. Maryland | | 77-79 |
Win | 100 | 16 h 56 m | Show |
For the same reasons I loved Belmont on Tuesday, I love them here. Belmont is a fantastic offensive team, near the top of almost every offensive category and should be favored in this game. Maryland has been playing mediocre basketball for a month now and I like Belmont to win the game outright. The Pick: Take Belmont. |
03-21-19 |
Bradley +19 v. Michigan State | | 65-76 |
Win | 100 | 17 h 50 m | Show |
Bradley reminds me of a Big Ten team and that's good news for our ticket. This isn't the Michigan State team who was scoring at will in non conference play. Injuries and the grind of the ugly style of basketball most Big Ten teams play has turned them into a low scoring team who slowly chokes teams out and pulls away at the end. Bradley is an outstanding defensive team and will use the Big Ten half court style of play to easily cover this huge spread. The Pick: Take Bradley |
03-21-19 |
Vermont +9 v. Florida State | | 69-76 |
Win | 100 | 16 h 51 m | Show |
In a matchup between two of the better defensive teams in the country I'm liking the dog here. FSU finished 4th in the ACC but there is a big gap between Duke, Carolina and Virginia and the Seminoles when it comes to offense. Florida State struggles to shoot from deep Which plays right into Vermont's hands. Vermont is near the top of every defensîve statistical category except three point shooting defense. The Catamounts keeps it a low scoring, half court game and covers. The Pick Take Vermont |
03-20-19 |
Arizona State -1.5 v. St. John's | | 74-65 |
Win | 100 | 21 h 36 m | Show |
How St John's got in to this tournament is beyond me as they were terrible down the stretch losing 4 of 5 including getting thrashed by 32 points to Marquette in the Big East tournament. The culprit is their defense which is just dreadful. On the other side Arizona State played their way into the first four by going 6-2 down the stretch with their only 2 losses to an Oregon team who is one of the hottest teams in the country. Arizona St underachieved for about two months but they seem to have figured it out and will be a tough out in this tournament. Bobby Hurley has his team ready play and they move on and cover. The Pick: Take ASU |

North Carolina Central v. North Dakota State -5 | | 74-78 |
Loss | -103 | 18 h 37 m | Show |
This first four matchup is between bad teams but North Carolina Central isn't even good enough for The NIT. They can't shoot so their gameplay will be to try to slow the game down to a crawl and win ugly. The problem with that strategy is North Dakota St can knock down shots and are a pretty good 3 point shooting team. I see a close game in the first half before ND State pulls away for the win and cover. The Pick: Take ND State |
03-19-19 |
Dayton v. Colorado -3.5 | | 73-78 |
Win | 100 | 29 h 23 m | Show |
Colorado is a pretty good team but at home they are very good team. Visiting teams, especially ones that don't play in the PAC 12 and haven't experienced playing them at their home gym in altitude don't usually fare well. The Buffaloes Finished their PAC 12 schedule winning 7 straight at home and covering in 6. I'm laying The Points and betting Colorado. The Pick: Take The Colorado |
03-19-19 |
Belmont -3 v. Temple | | 81-70 |
Win | 100 | 24 h 2 m | Show |
I like Temple, they are a tough team who went 1-2 against Cincinnati and Houston this year and they have a future NBA player in Shizz Alston. But Belmont is one of the best offensive teams in the country. They are #1 in the country in assists, #2 in points, #2 in assist to turnover ratio, #4 in shooting percentage and #6 in offensive efficiency. Temple will play well but it won't be enough against that kind of offensive team. Belmont gets the win and cover. The Pick: Take Belmont |
03-19-19 |
South Dakota State +8.5 v. Texas | | 73-79 |
Win | 105 | 9 h 44 m | Show |
South Dakota St should be getting ready for the NCAA Tournement but after getting upset in the first round of their conference tourney here they are and this line is ridiculous. I love fading power conference teams in the NIT because most don't want to be there and are still upset about their bubble bursting. SD State has 3 legitimate offensive weapons who averages over 15 points a game and shoots over 37 percent from 3. Their Best player,Mike Daum averages 25 points a game and is one of the best seniors in the country. I'm betting SD State. The Pick: Take South Dakota State |

Fairleigh Dickinson v. Prairie View A&M OVER 149 | | 82-76 |
Win | 100 | 22 h 56 m | Show |
In this first four game we have two team that like to run, two teams who can shoot and two teams that aren't very good defensively. If you add all that up I think we go over the total in this one. Dickinson has 5 starters who average in double figures and their top 6 scorers all shoot over 34 percent from 3 and they have 3 players who shoot over 43 percent from 3. Prairie View doesn't shoot as well as Dickinson but they use defensive pressure to get steals that lead to easy baskets. Prairie View has gone over the total in 13 of their last 17 and scored over 79 points in 11 of them. Take The OVER |

Michigan v. Michigan State OVER 129.5 | | 60-65 |
Loss | -114 | 14 h 53 m | Show |
This total is a little low, even for a Big Ten game. Michigan State and Michigan have the most talent in the conference and it's going to be hard for these two defenses to play well enough to keep this game from breaking 130. Both of these teams have cashed the over in 4 of their last 6 games and both games they played against each other this season went over the total. They combined for 147 points in Ann Arbor on February 24th and 138 points in the rematch in East Lansing last weekend. THE PICK: Take The OVER |
03-17-19 |
Michigan v. Michigan State -1 | | 60-65 |
Win | 100 | 14 h 52 m | Show |
The two best teams in the Big Ten square of for a third time for The Big Ten title and I give the edge to Michigan State. Michigan is a really good team who has enough talent to get back to the Final Four but The Spartans are a bad matchup for them. Michigan State is too physical for the Wolverines and dominates them on the glass. They also swept them this year beating them by 7 last month and 12 last weekend. The Spartans complete the 3 game sweep. The Pick: Take Michigan State |
03-17-19 |
Cincinnati v. Houston -4 | | 69-57 |
Loss | -110 | 13 h 5 m | Show |
It was inevitable for these two teams to play in the title game and it should be a good one. Cincinnati is a very good team and I expect them to get to the 2nd weekend of the NCAA tournament due to their physical defensive style. But Houston is a bad matchup for them. The Cougars are physical themselves, can also lock teams down defensively and won't back down from the Bearcats. The difference between the two team, and why Houston won both meetings (and covered both games) this year is they have more offensive weapons who can hit big shots late. Houston is also 9-1 against the spread this year when favored by 5 points or less. I'm betting on Houston. The Pick: Take Houston |

Auburn v. Tennessee UNDER 147 | | 84-64 |
Loss | -110 | 11 h 7 m | Show |
Tennessee has the ability to score a lot of points and has broken 80 in both tournament games but this game won't be high scoring Auburn will be playing in their 4th game in 4 days and will slow the game down and make it a half court struggle to conserve energy. Trying to run with Tennessee in this game would be a mistake they won't make. I'm betting the under. The Pick: Take The UNDER |
03-17-19 |
Yale v. Harvard UNDER 144.5 | | 97-85 |
Loss | -110 | 10 h 19 m | Show |
This total is a little high for me. Yale likes to play fast but Harvard will try to slow the game down and take The home crowd out of it. The intensity of the game to see who goes to the tournament as well as playing the second day in row will slow the game down as well. The under has cashed in 4 of Harvards last 5 games and Yale has gone under the total in 9 of their 14 conference games this year. I don't see this game breaking 140. The Pick: Take The UNDER |

Oregon -1.5 v. Washington | | 68-48 |
Win | 100 | 3 h 25 m | Show |
All season most people including myself thought that Washington was the best team in The PAC 12 and may be the only bid that conference received. But down the stretch The Huskies offensive deficiencies started showing up while Oregon got healthy and caught Fire. These two split their two games in the regular season with both teams winning on their home floor. The Ducks are a different team than they were in their 5 point loss to Washington in January. They are more like the team that dominated Washington on both sides of the floor a week ago And have won and covered in each of their last 7 games. This game won't be as easy as a week ago but I think they are the more complete team and will get the win. The Pick: Take Oregon |
03-16-19 |
Grand Canyon v. New Mexico State OVER 136.5 | | 57-89 |
Win | 100 | 3 h 5 m | Show |
This total is a low for how well these two offenses are playing. Grand Canyon has cashed 8 straight Overs, scoring over 70 points in each game. New Mexico State's offense is playing fanatastic as they have scored over 75 points in their last 7 games. These two teams played a fantastic game back in January that broke the 150 points mark. It may not go that high because the pressure of the game but this total should be in the 140's. I'm betting The OVER. THE PIC:Take The OVER |

Florida State +8 v. Duke | | 63-73 |
Loss | -110 | 6 h 34 m | Show |
Zion is back and clearly still the best player in college basketball and I expect Duke to come in with the same game plan as last night and that's run the offense through him and ride him to the conference Tournament championship. That being said this line is too high and reflects the public's love of Duke. Florida State is a really good team. They are long, and just as athletic as Duke. When these teams played in January, Florida State was the better team that day and should of won, losing on a 3 point shot with 2 seconds left. Florida State is 5-2 against the spread as underdogs in conference play this year and they'll get the cover here as well. The Pick: Take Florida State |
03-16-19 |
Iowa State v. Kansas -1 | | 78-66 |
Loss | -107 | 4 h 38 m | Show |
The fact that Iowa State even made it to the finals is pretty shocking considering how they ended the regular season, losing 6 of their last 8. But here they are and I think they are getting a little too much credit only being a 1 point dog after beating mediocre Baylor and Kansas State. On the other side this isn't the most talented Kansas team Bill Self has had but he has them playing better as they've won 9 of their last 11. If you don't think these players don't have extra motivation to win this tournament after being the team that let the regular season conference title streak end, think again. Kansas uses the energy of the home crowd and gets it done tonight. The Pick: Take Kansas |
03-16-19 |
San Diego State v. Utah State UNDER 135 | | 57-64 |
Win | 100 | 3 h 48 m | Show |
San Diego State is playing some fantastic defense in this tournament holding UNLV and a very good Nevada team to 55 and 56 points respectively. Utah State is a good offensive team but San Diego State will slow them down and make this game as ugly as possible if they have any chance to win. These teams played twice this season and both games were low scoring slugfests. I expect the same here. I'm betting the UNDER. The Pick: Take The UNDER |
03-16-19 |
Tennessee v. Kentucky -1 | | 82-78 |
Loss | -114 | 3 h 55 m | Show |
Kentucky is flying under the radar with 3 title contenders in the ACC and Gonzaga dominating out west but this team is really good and Calipari has them focused and angry at the disrespect. Speaking of disrespect when Tennessee smashed Kentucky in Knoxville 2 weeks ago they were running and dunking in the final seconds to send Kentucky a message. Well message received. Look for Kentucky to come out firing on all cylinders. I think these two teams are a wash offensively but I give the advantage to Kentucky on the defensive side and obviously coaching. Expect a tight game with Kentucky holding on in the end for the win and cover. The Pick: Take Kentucky

Memphis v. Houston -8 | | 58-61 |
Loss | -110 | 3 h 58 m | Show |
Memphis played great yesterday dominating a pretty good Central Florida team who beat them twice this season. But this a tall order for Penny Hardaway's Tigers. Houston is outstanding on both sides of the ball and Memphis will be playing their third game in 3 days. The March Madness dream fades for Memphis as Houston pulls away in the second half for a double digit win. The Pick: Take Houston |
03-16-19 |
Wisconsin v. Michigan State -4.5 | | 55-67 |
Win | 100 | 11 h 22 m | Show |
Wisconsin is playing well but The Spartans have too much talent in this matchup. Tom Izzo will put in a gameplan to neutralize Ethan Happ and when Happ isn't scoring Wisconsin's offense struggles. Michigan State gets the win and cover. The Pick: Take Michigan State |
03-16-19 |
Florida v. Auburn -3 | | 62-65 |
Push | 0 | 11 h 7 m | Show |
Florida played out of their minds Friday to take down LSU, don't expect a repeat performance. Auburn is peaking right now, playing fantastic on both ends of the floor. Bad matchup for the Gators. Auburn Moves on to The SEC Championship but more importantly cashes our ticket. The Pick: Take Auburn |
03-15-19 |
Oregon -2 v. Arizona State | | 79-75 |
Win | 100 | 12 h 14 m | Show |
This line is a gift. Oregon is rolling and Arizona State is an NIT team At best. The Pick: Take The Ducks |
