NCAAT Tonight:

Radford -3.5 vs LIU
UCLA -3.5 vs Bonnies

NCAAT Wed:

Texas Southern -4.5 vs. North Carolina Central
Arizona State -2 vs. Syracuse

NIT Tonight:

Vermont +6 @ MTSU. Worst kept secret is that MTSU coach Kermit Davis is out the door (headed to Ole Miss) so I see no reason why MTSU cares about this game with their NCAAT hopes crushed last week and their HC cleaning out his office.

Vermont also only lost one conference game before losing Saturday on a last second 3 pointer. 27-7, 15-1 in conference. Lost in the conference championship game, out of tourney.

Who knows which team is deflated and which team has a chip on their shoulder.

I would lean towards the team who doesn't have a lame duck coach, but I can understand the reasoning.

MTSU has no reason whatsoever to care - they limped to the finish line and ended with a terrible loss to Southern Miss which cost them their at large bid.

st bonaventure to win

ucla has the size inside, but as we see year after year the ncaa will call ticky tack bullshite on bigs and make it a shooting contest by getting most effective big men into foul trouble early. (had to get that out of the way )

because of size, ucla opponents are attempting lots of 3 pointers. one of the highest attempt against per game in the country. bonnies shoot 19th highest 3 pt %.

UCla >300th in forcing turnovers, ST Bon 57th.

Ucla will play sloppy, turn it over 16 times and the st bon outside shooting wins close game

radford wont score with liu-booklyn

radford #303 in ppg. ill take liu to win as well

**looking at the big south (radford opponents) none score inside the top 100 ppg. radford defense not as good as ppg indicates

A nice, live dog is NMST.

Clemson is overrated, and their small guards are going to have problems with NMST big/long guards. I will probably bet them on ML.

Fist i looked and noticed.

Everyone seems to be riding St. Bonaventure.

UCLA beats them by 10.

Lot of sharp money on the Radford over. Climbed 2.5 points this morning even though like 62% of the bets are on the under.

Saw that too - both teams like to full court press so there should be a ton of points.

when the time comes, creighton over UVA

creighton's pace and high shooting % will be too much for a UVA team that struggles to score

Radford now -6 at some spots. Quite a move and it may not be done...

Kentucky -5.5 - they are peaking and maturing quickly.

South Dakota St +7.5

Loyola Chicago +2 - trendy pick and short line but seems correct.

Thinking about San Diego State as well.

Playing Rhode Island -2

Looked at vols, but if they start off slow again and chase the score, that -12 will be toast.
