    NCstate outrebounded Temple 34-22 but Temple outrebounded Indiana. Georgetown AND San Diego St outrebounded FGCU. Kstate outrebounded LaSalle. Colorado outrebounded Illinois. Villanova outrebounded UNC 35-22. Notre Dame outrebounded ISU. Rebounding is NOT as important as you think.

    These 8 teams won on the boards and go 0-8. Theres many more from this years tourney as well, I just didn't want to look them up.

    Also, Brock gave you points implying he agrees with your point which further invalidates it.

    Sorry Wulfy but it just ain't so.

    Damn I hate seeing people who probably didnt know La Salle was a team until a week ago saying they have no chance an trying to back it up with this rebounding non sense. The fact is La Salle had to play a much tougher schedule than WSU, they did ok even with their rebounding problems. Beat KSU in a virtual road game, and beat a hot Ole Miss team that has size up front. I'm not saying La Salle is going to win but don't count them out.

    LaSalle could give them some issues with there speed. Witchita is going to have to take advantage on inside and not force 3's

    Their sched doesnt matter at this point. It is all about matchups bro u should know that. With that said I think their too quick for the shockers therefore i would buy up to 7 and take the points. Easy money.

    Well so far I'd say my predictions are all true - Wichita St dominating on rebounds and points in paint. La Salle draining a million 3s. This will be an interesting 2nd half.

    Not even halftime, but Wichita dominating the boards.

    Nice call Wulfy

    Your earlier post hinted at the fact that you're a novice bettor. Your last post just confirmed it.

    Good luck with your bets

    Sitch I totally agreed with your breakdown, and wrote some similar stuff before as well. That's why I gave u tokes before tipoff, and now it's all looking 100% accurate so far.

    Comparing La Salle win over VCU is like saying Michigan beat VCU so they will beat Kansas. Don't even try that - VCU plays a style completely different than Wichita State or KU.

    I'm not saying The Explorers can't win this game, but I will say that if they don't make at least 10 3-pointers there is no chance they win. Wichita state might double la salles rebounds.
    I was close, WSU outrebounded La Salle 43-24. La Salle did not hit 10 3's, and never cut the lead to under 11. BINGO.

    Good stats however a team is able to be more consistent playIng solid defense and rebounding versus a better shooting team that can be hot or cold on any given day. Miami was a clear example of that today .

    And the size discrepancy between these two teams are greater then any of the games you mentioned. And that ksu game was bullshit. Lasalle got lucky at the end
