    That is by far the better way to go here.
    Michigan St is the worst value on the board.
    Vegas likes them bigtime apparently and doesn't want action on them.

      I think Virginia is just the team to take down Mich st. Mich st has been on a run lately, but against Wisconsin, Iowa, and Mich. All mediocre defense teams. Ohio st beat them by a bucket on March 9th..thats prob the best D in the B10 the have faced recently, and they lost.

        Starting to lean towards Virginia making it out of that bracket.

          Iowa ST will give them a real run for their money in Elite Eight. I have Iowa State beating them.

            Wouldn't surprise me if they do meet up. At all.

              Iowa St is a great team, but the moment they meet a team that can both score and defend, I think they are in trouble. Spartans can do both.

                I got Mich St beating Syracuse in the final four and losing to Louisville in the final.

                Spartans a very dangerous team. Obviously well coached and finally healthy. Their power game is going to give a lot of folks fits.

                  Plus, you have to wonder if ISU's thin bench will get the best of them at some point.

                    Kenpom doesn't think much of Sparty

                    gives them a 2.1% chance to win the champioinship and 5.9% chance to make final 4

                      He also has Creighton and Villanova ranked higher which is suspect, think MichSt still dancing while nova and crtn long gone. Looks like there is a real good chance of potential Louvl/WichSt winner facing Mich St in Final.

                        And lack of size.

                              I agree JT
                              They are getting too much. love. That usually ends badly. 9/2 and second Choice overall to win title as a four seed is crazy. Not because they are not good but there are so many good teams and a 4 seed has one game scheduled that is reasonably easy before they have to usually win vs 5 good teams. I love Izzo and was the first in this thread to point out how great he is but 9/2 and half the world picking them is absurd.
