    That said there are some groups seeking Wichita and those may include some of the sharper forecasters. I have Wichita State winning by about 16 points in a 137 or 138 point game.

    Make no mistake I believe, with the pressures on Wichita, that Wichita should actually be favored here. I don’t have time to get into the mechanics on why the book opened where it did, but I can assure there is a reason they are holding at a pick.

    If that line shifts toward Wichita in a in a sudden move and it appears to get steam, effectively letting the cat out of the bag, Wichita could be in trouble and the sharper groups could give one back. The blind squirrels will get their nut and never even realize why.

    Good Luck.

    great call thus far

    it's always great seeing Sean Miller look like a clown on an annual basis, never seen him outcoach anyone

    I never did see that line movement I was looking for so I suppose they kept the cat in the bag...lol.

    Still a lot of game left and even though I didn't bet this game, I usually don't like my forecasts to be leading early.

    USC hanging in there for the Pac 12 tonight.

    Arizona is throwing this game. Lol just look at the highlights! Arizona players flailing their arms giving the ball up. That's called working together to achieve a loss.

    Arizona is gone end the game with at least 25 turnovers. I wouldn't be surprised if Miller is fired on the plane ride home..lol....

    Arizona got more turnovers than free throws made, shots made and assists combined.

    Whole Pac-12 is trash. I don't think anybody from their conference makes it to next weekend.

    Arizona is +20.5 live right now. You guys think they have enough pride to lose by less than 20?

    Utah will bury Seton Hall in front of a homewtown crowd on Saturday. Gonzaga will be a challenge but I have to think they'll still get through.

    Oregon? who knows? Utah is legit. Utah beat Duke but lost to Miami in reg season. They also have a brutal path.....either Gonzaga or Seton Hall next and then Mich St.

    Cal is good but young.

    Why even play the rest of the tourney? There is no team in the country that can beat the Shockers.

    Ive long said Miller sucks, doesnt know how to coach the talent thats come through there, his brother would do a much better job at Arizona.

    Are we really crowning this team because they beat up on Vandy and Arizona?

    Nothing to laugh about. They are favored by 3 points vs #3 seed. Think about it for a second. The #3 seed is an underdog to team #65.

    Miami is an awesome bet. This zona team just flat out sucked sometimes all year and smashing them on a bad shooting night does not mean witch st will beat Miami. They are good but miami is better.
