March 9 Ganchrow tourney dogs

I can't believe we are getting plus money to boot with vandy today GanchrowHG.

I know, it must be because Arkansas destroyed Vandy last game. And Vandy, historically, has not been a team with good character and resilience. But this year they have won on the road, which is something they notably did not do in years past. So I think a full unit on them at plus odds has legitimate value.

GanchrowHG, I had to take a double take when I first looked at that line.

Vandy beat Kentucky twice, Florida, and Tennessee too this year. Now the oddsmakers are trying to sell us the fact that Arkansas are world beaters now

I'm sorry but I'm not buying it that at all.

Arkansas will beat vandy today, by more than 2.

I like Wyoming plus the points again today. Line is up to 9 now and may even go to 9.5-10 before tipoff.

I do, a little, as well. Check out this quote from Wyoming's top player:

Brandon Ewing, who added 19 points Thursday, was held to eight in Wyoming's last meeting with the Cougars and did not score a basket until there was 10:48 to play.

"We feel we have unfinished business going into the BYU game," said Ewing, who leads the Cowboys with 19.7 points per game. "That's a team that swept us this year. They actually beat us at home. We want to come out and just win the whole thing. That's our mindset in the locker room."

Still, BYU is TOUGH. This one for me will probably just be 1/4 unit.

I don't like this one, I think Pitt will be too tough for Louisville. They did struggle vs West Virginia in the end, and Pitt presents a tougher challenge. Just as a matter of value, I don't think it's there at +135.

Also Louiville just came off a double OT win last nite in dramatic fashion. I believe they probably celebrated hard last nite and spent too much effort in winning that game. There's no way they'll have the same energy and be fired up for this game.
