NCAA Thursday

Duke -6

Hearing a lot about how LSU could win this game straight up...but Dukies have been playing great basketball last two games. Other players have been stepping up for them besides just Reddick and S. Williams. They have had all week to prepare against an upset and I think they come out and get the job done.

Memphis -6

Bradley has become everybody's sweetheart this week after upsetting both Kansas and Pittsburgh this past weekend. Bradley has looked impressive, no doubt, but Memphis will not miss 9 of their first 10 shots or turn the ball over 14 times as Pitt did on Sunday. One can even argue that Memphis has been the most impressive number one seed, averaging 83 points in first two games on 53% shooting.

No 13 seed has EVER made it to the Sweet 16.

UCLA -3

Besides Duke, I can't think of one team the public loves more than Gonzaga and this line reflects that. UCLA actually plays defense and that should be the difference in this ballgame. UCLA has given up 60 points or LESS in their last 9 games!!! Gonzaga gave up 92 to San Diego on their HOME court in the WCC tourney!

north carolina?
connecticut?
notre dame?
florida?
texas?
michigan state?
maryland?
syracuse?

the media certainly loves to pump up gonzaga, but im not convinced the betting public follows suit when they play your typical power conference teams. when gonzaga plays wcc games, they tend to be heavy public choices. but so does memphis in c-usa

Let me clarify...Come tourney time...Gonzaga becomes Joe Public's team du jour.
