We've all pressed bets when losing, but...how does the MSM result affect whether you play 1 or 3 units on a separate game?

Wednesday Play-In

Wednesday Play-In

Texas Southern +4 (1 unit) Poly was an 8 seed in BW Trny, Tx So won SWAC, TxSo has a coach who's been to the dance before in Mike Davis, former Hoosier one and done coach, TxSo has a strong front court and quick guards, TxSo go for the SU WIN!

Tennessee +2 1/2 (if bet, if Tx Southern fails to cover game 1, bump Tenn to a 3 unit play, If Tx Southern wins/covers, keep Tenn as a 1 unit play) Vols with experience in their lineup, HC that has been there, Iowa's HC Mac has been there, may have some emotional edge in this one as Fran's son is or has had thyroid surgery, Iowa slumped the last 6 games and Vols playing better at the right time, this is all about momentum, not how teams started out of the games at the beginning of the season! Vols win by 4!

one as Fran's son is or has had thyroid surgery


Patrick had the surgery this morning; coach McCaffery traveled with the team to Dayton on Monday, flew home yesterday for surgery this morning and is returning to Dayton in time for tonight's game.

Does this play into the outcome of the game tonight? Unless there were problems with the surgery I really don't think it means anything other than a long day of travel for McCaffery.

Tracking today!! Lots of laxed favorites. FWIW, Spokane NCAA site is 75% dogs covering in 1st round since they started playing in Spokane. Orlando is good for OVER plays and Favorites less than 20 pts, also Raleigh is notorius for OVERS in round one and Duke & Va have a slight home court edge, both having played in the PNC and not far to travel to.

3-1 last night as I didn't like the card much and lots of under plays and underdogs covering or winning SU!!

That will continue today with a shocker underdog knocking off a #2 seed!!

Friday, March 21

Tennessee -4 (1 unit) Vols better athletes, U Mass played a nice A10 schedule but on the road did they have any quality wins vs top 50? Nah!! 11 seed over a 6 seed? There is a method to that madness!! It will all come down to treys and free throws once again and this one is in Raleigh, my back yard, lots of Vol fans as well as Yankees from Baw-stin! Vols by 6

E Kentucky +14 (3 units) Young Jayhawk team without Embiid, they will take it one game at a time but Colonels know this is a shot to knock off an elite team, EK will give KU all they can handle if not SU upset!

SF Austin +7 (3 units) 31-2 team with 29 straight wins, yeah weaker schedule but you don't win by accident, this one is played in SD, not as far a travel spot for a hungry underdog 12 seed. VC is 1-0 as a tourney fav and did most of their damage as underdogs in the tourneys in the past, but SFA isn't going away lightly here folks.

Okla St -2 (1 unit) Cowboys with better overall "D" and shooters with athleticism face Zags who are normally a fav in the tourney, but they showed weaknesses vs BYU and OKIE State will exploit those in San Diego tonight, in the 7 seed 8 seed matchup. Smart will rock tonight!!

Baylor -3 1/2 (5 units) Bears bigger up front, even in the backcourt, this one played in SA Tex, home flavor and a team that was in the NIT last year with Drew will make their mark vs scrappy Big10 team Nebraska who had some quality road wins this year and shocked the conference finishing higher than predicted, but it comes down to execution and Bears should do it by 7.
