Thurs & Friday plays
Oregon +1 (1 unit) - Not just because everyone and their mother is in love with Michigan and why shouldn't they be? They are a feel good story, however, Ducks has some talent folks, Brooks is an NBA player much like Deron Williams except quicker and better shooting touch, Ducks also have some size and shoot FTs well, Michigan is relatively young and took care of the Big10 tourney and first two NCAA games, beating Okie State by 4, oops by 1, they allowed the BDC trey to screw Michigan backers, Ducks beat a pretty good A10 foe in the Rams who play relatively good defense and had that game in hand until the Ducks pulled away late in the 2H. I like the Ducks getting the pt and to win SU, this line opened a pickem and it's right where my number was except the fact that the Ducks are +6 pts margin of victory on the rd and Wolverines were -1 margin on the rd, edge to Ducks by 7!
1H: Under 70 WV/Gonzaga (1 unit) - Both teams should feel each other out of the gates in this contest and cool down, slow down after the first 10 mins. My # is 66!!
Under 150 WV/Gonzaga (1 unit) - there should be some "D" played in this tilt folks and it's being played in San Jose, Zags should have a friendly fan base here.
Purdue +6 (1 unit) Jayhawks should have home edge here in KCMO however Boilermakers up front could present a challenge for smaller, athletic Jayhawk club who have the better guards in this tilt, however, bigs for Purdue could present foul challenge to J-Hawks bigs, Lucas and the fuzzy foreigner. KU is 5-11 in the Sweet 16 under Self and Painter's club just 1-4 in the Sweet 16 ATS, this is the best team he's put together in his years in Ft Wayne and I wouldn't doubt if they could win this one SU.
Arizona -7 (1 unit) - Wildcats have faced X before? Well Miller faces his former colleague in coach Mack, X will have Bluiett and the trey land wunderkind, but Wildcats "D" could prove to wear down on the X'men in waning moments of this one in San Jose which should have a good fan base there from Zona. I have Cats winning 17?
1H: Under 68 X/Arizona (1 unit) - see this one being an early struggle as both teams feel around for the first 10.
1H: Over 73 Purdue/KU (10 units) - Seeing a shootout, my # is 78 pts.
Gonzaga -3 (10 units) - I like the team play Zags put out there, they'll get obvious fan support here in San Jose and they failed to cover their first two games, playing feisty teams in Jackrabbits and NW'rn. WV hillbillies are feisty and play Press-Virginia, however, Goss and company should find the perimeter and the big foreigner lefty could have a breakout game as he's been quiet in games 1 & 2 thus far, he's due tonight!! Zags are +25 on the road while WV is only +3 on the rd, Zags have neutral court edge in matchups this year as well.
Butler +7 (1 unit) Bulldogs present some matchup probs for coach Williams' heels and experience of the Bulldogs and 100% effort will wear down UNC in the 2H. Guard play is the key and both teams have it, UNC bigger and athletic up front but they are inconsistent, they escaped with a victory vs the Hogs, Bulldogs won't allow a game to get out of hand, this is a 3-5 pt game max!
Over 135 S Cakaky/Bears (10 units) - NY will be hopping, S Carolina should have nice fan base here in the Big Apple, Bears have some nice size and present challenges for Gamecocks and Gamecocks have some cool customers as well who took DUKEY to the woodshed last Sunday. I have this line off by 5 pts at 140.
That's all for now. Still studying Wisky/Fla matchup and UCLA/KY matchup. Revenge factor in play for UCLA/KY as Bruins beat KY earlier in the year.
