St Patty's Day plays....

[Box and one]

St Louis -2 over VCU ***
This info comes right from the conclave in Rome...Pope Francis has sent a message to the Billikens to win this game vs VCU and to cover..no time to handicap Pope Francis's message but the Pope is the 1st Pope from the Jesuit order ever selected...Jesuit Pope..c'mom ..no way VCU wins...they live on their turn overs..had 23 vs UMass yest and missed tons of open shots..but Louie doesn't turn it over and has Evans... " se libros nos a malo"...

Miami -2.5 over NC ***
Canes over all are the better team...more experienced and play better defense..front line is tough...Scott was unreal yest and Larkin is the straw...NC is happy to be here with the yr they had..Canes want it all and possibly the No 1 seed..

Ohio St -2 over Wisky ***
Again the better defensive team...a typical B-10 final...the best player out there today is Thomas..enough said...

Florida -10.5 over Miss **
After watching them shoot 3-17 from the 3 and 12-18 from the FT line the gators don't look like they are on all cylinders.Miss has Henderson who can hit from anywhere...think the Bama defense had something to do with the Gators yest...Ole Miss doesn't play that kind of defense..

Yest went 6-2
Happy St Patricks Day...and good luck for Pope Francis today...

ps..Fordham is a Jesuit school...can't wait till next yr..

I agree with them all except playing UNC in Greensboro is huge advantage for UNC. Miami is better team but there will be matchup problems both ways. Good luck.

Admittedly a huge badger fan...

But my boys lead the Big 10 in defensive points allowed per possession.

Hoping for a great game...headed to the UC now.

rrc....overall in FG% defense they are both tied at 39.5 %...think in B-10 stats wisky is better and over all Wisky does have the better defense...they are last in steals in the B-10...but you are right..they are the better defensive team on paper...today we will see.....thanks for correcting me..

Glad you are enjoying Austin.

Our son and daughter in law, lives there with our grandson who is now 6

Cant wait to see him again.

Sure is hot there, even hotter than Georgia gets which I didnt think was possible.


After watching Big Ten championship game, I have come to the conclusion that both these teams will surely make the final 8 and I think Ohio St is going to the final four.


Great game to watch. Like a chess match.

Love the big red head on Wisky. His hair makes him look four inchs taller.

Nice call on OSU....nice 3-1 for the day.

Key play...up 7..2 minutes left in first half..Marshall takes sh*t shot 1 on 4...turned those last 2 minutes around.
