    4* Kansas State -4

    i'll be the first to admit that this goes contra my power ratings. that said, the tournament is arguably the time to throw out power ratings, or at least view them as more fluid. i thought that BYU would do better against an athletic opponent than they did against Florida, but there's no denying that K State is a much worse version of the same bad match-up. K State is going to maul the Cougs.

    agree!

    100 percent agree with you. Too big, too athletic and they score much better inside than FL, who actually had success inside against BYU.

      thanks. here's hoping i'm seeing this one correctly. it's hard for me to depart from my system, so i thought about it long and hard.

        4* Ohio U +8'

        Rick Barnes might be gone, but i can still fade Bruce Pearl. liking the 1H under too, though going to think about it some more since the number's going up.

                I've said all year that a thought Tenn is the most over rated ranked team I've ever seen and I've been around a while. No discipline and they just don't play smart.

                      Rick, haven't gotten to N Iowa/KU yet, but i lean ODU over Baylor. i cap it at 61-58, so my play might be the under.

                                  g'day biff, looking for a rebound today

                                  Like the K-State -4.5 play. The numbers I look at say it's pretty close, but watching the tournament so far it appears the athletic big teams are playing well. K-State rolled in the 1st game, and BYU struggled against a poor man's version of K-State in Florida.

                                  Like the WF/UK over.

                                  NOt sold on the Bulter/Murray st over, plus it's up to 131 now.

                                  Got some stuff to do today, should be back around in time for the night games. I was going to lay some on Nova and the over, but I think that's a stay away game.

                                        agree as to all of that. really wish i'd locked in Butler over at 128' but too busy rolling on the floor laughing at Obama trying to convince Doris Burke he cares about women's hoops. that bit never gets old. i think we're going to see a lot of elimination game FTs at the end of that one.

                                          any opinions on Wash/UNM?

                                          Wash is now 2.5 favorites. I like Wash to win, but that line keeps growing.

                                            i have UW winning by a point there and just creeping over. that game's a no-play for me.

                                              BYU/K-state 1H is 72.5. That seems a little high to me. I don't have good 1h/2h numbers though.

                                                  4* Ohio U +8'
                                                  4* Kansas State -4
                                                  3* Murray State/Butler over 130'
                                                  3* Northern Iowa/Kansas under 126'
                                                  3* Wake Forest/Kentucky over 144'

                                                  still thinking about the UT 1H under, Baylor under. i should probably just play them both 3* and shut up about it.

                                                    yeah, that's a high 1H number. if either team doesn't top 30 points 1H, you're pretty much there. i have the game sneaking over by a few. if you're going to play under, 1H under looks better than the game, i think. i'll say K State 37-32 at half.

                                                        Hope Butler and Murray State have some more offense to show for in the 2H

                                                          that was rough to watch. might've needed 2 OTs.
