They won’t… Purdue might win a game this year


How awesome would it be for Purdue to lose as a 1 Seed, AGAIN, this year?

NC State +5.5
Western Kentucky +14.5

There won’t be any 16 over 1 or 15 over 2, but I will bet South Dakota St. +16 for (-110).

14 Samford could beat KU
10 Drake over 7 WSU
10 Nevada over 7 Dayton
10 Boise/CU over 7 Florida
11 Oregon over 6 South Carolina
11 NM over 6 Clemson
12 JMU over 5 Wisconsin

I’d say at least 4 of these happen.

This thread has gotten me really intrigued by New Mexico and wanting to ride with them for a while, but I see they only finished 6th in the MWAC. I know literally nothign about them...what is it about them that's making them a trendy pick knowing they didn't fare too well in conference play?

samford will be such a popular pick that the value will actually be in picking kansas


Samford runs more zone than almost any team in the tourney this year and Kansas was great against zone defense this year, 30% above average PPP

BYU shoots a lot of threes so it's always possible they go cold, eapwcially and in a bigger arena where teams have been known to shoot a little worse

Probably. I have BYU in S16

Not crazy to take Duq +9.5, but I wouldn’t pick them to win

New Mexico over Clemson Oregon over South Carolina


According to Vegas these aren’t really upsets

New Mexico is actually favored by 2.5

Mine is that Arizona actually lives up to its seeding and makes the final four.

Mississippi State and Texas Tech are elite 8 picks that I like. We shall see.
