Iowa St -1 over UConn **
Shabazz does everything for the Huskies..leads them in scoring,assists,steals,etc..playing in NYC gives them somewhat of a home court advantage...Huskies want to play uptempo because Iowa's 5 of 7 losses have come vs an uptempo pace..still think the Cyclones with Kane and co will take care of the ball and hit a few 3's...not a great defensive team so they have to score take care of the ball on offense..
Michigan -2 over Tenn **
Love Tenn with its two 6'8 players..long,lean,athletic,etc..6'6 gds,Stokes,etc.. front court size will cause match up problems for Michigan .have to love Martin the coach...Tenn started a petition with 30,000 fans asking to get Pearl back...early on in the season...but Michigan can shoot the ball 40% from the 3.. Mich must hit the bds because Tenn could control the paint..Mich doesn't turn the ball over and I like Beilein on the bench..
Mich St -2.5 over Vir **
Tough game...Vir defense is great..but so is Mich St...think Mich is almost 100% healthy..Dawson in the middle could be the difference...think they can penetrate the " line" defense...should be a great game to watch..
Kentucky +4.5 over Louie **
Although very young they are peaking...so athletic and big...Harrison has looked so good.. Randle inside tough..Louie will press and put pressure on the Kats...think Louie wins this but doesn't cover...Kentucky will attack and go to the FT line...
All tough games tonite...
Last nite went 1-3
Wisky game was text book...in the 1st 3 minutes I knew I was in trouble....
