Is this the best time of year or what? I'm so glad its finally here. Conference tourneys are good, but they just don't compare. I've been on a little roll lately and I like a lot of the matchups today so I will have quite a few picks today.
First play of the day is... BYU -5. I believe my write up speaks for itself when it comes to this game so I won't explain further.
Next early play is... Under 121 ND/ODU. Surprisingly it is ODU that I am worried about busting this under play, not ND. ND has slowed their pace to Ivy league style lately, and while ODU also plays a slow it down game (300th in tempo rank), they have been scoring more as of late (73ppg in last 5). This is going against the recent trends for ODU where the over is 7-1 in their last 8, but I just see this being a grind it out game. Also, it is an early morning game and its a tourney game so players will come out tight.
More to come... As always criticism/suggestions are very helpful.
