NCAA HOOPS (19-16) -> +21.3 UNITS
****PITT +3 (-120)
-I like Pitt's toughness and experience in this game. I think Woodall has the skills defensively to try and contain Burke and that is the key to beating the Wolverines. I expect a close game that comes down to the wire, so I will take the 3 points and Pitt.
****BUTLER +2 (+100)
-I base this play on the fact that Butler has played much better opponents to this point and I think that gives them an edge. The best win for Illinois is over USC, which I believe to be inferior to UNC and Marquette. I think personel wise, these teams matchup fairly well. As most games do, it will come down to who shoots the ball better. I will take my chances with Butler.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL
