Dick Vitale likes the Sooners today.

[Snowball]

So he pops in on Sportscenter this morning and says
the dome doesn't favor 3-point shooters. In today's
games he thinks it will come down to rebounds and
inside play.. he sees an Oklahoma vs. North Carolina
championship.

[Snowball]

I think I'll go with his experience and observations
this makes sense plus they are a light dog and
it's in Houston.. something about this feels worth a bet.
As much as I respect Villanova, this is likely to be a tough
environment for their style of ball.

Oklahoma the more talented team going but Villanova the smarter team

[kmarinouofm]

lang is on this game.. so i am fading once i know the play.. he has like 75 dimes on it

[PittsburghPlayer]

Concerning Syr-NC, With days to prepare...does Syr get beat down by 9 or 10 points?
My thinking is YES but unable to pull the trigger on NC...
I see Syr down 5 or 7 at 1/2 time and NC keeping the lead in the 2nd though close enough
that people continue to watch game, and buy more "shit" (commercials)

winning by 10 plus points.

However, I was on Virginia last week against Orange, so...

[Snowball]

Oklahoma the more talented team going but Villanova the smarter team

smart won't win, board crashing, free throws and hustle will..
funny lighting, strange environment, pressure, Houston more
in league with OK... this is the angle...

that's even more a case for Villanova...Oklahoma shoots more 3's than the Wildcats...advantage Nova....goes to show that old bald headed fuk should have retired years ago...now he's really senile and doesn't know what the hell he is talking about.

What's the deal with this dome in Houston? I keep hearing people talking about it as a huge factor or something

something to do with it being difficult to shoot because of the lighting.. or at least thats what ive picked up from others posting

Season totals, villanova shot and averaged more threes per game than oklahoma but oklahoma makes them more.

[Snowball]

i am thinking under 144.5
just can't push the trigger on Sooners.
Villanova has a cool head.
I'm going under 144.5

[MoneyLineDawg]

What did they say about the dome?

[Snowball]

What did they say about the dome?

nobody shoots well there because the backboards are so far away
from the seats that the height/distance perspective is off. 30 yards away.
there could also be a lighting issue.
so i'll just play under.

[suicidekings]

Oklahoma's path through the tourney impresses me more. Miami was tired out and Kansas is very overrated, allowing Nova to cruise pretty easily.

Also, when OU played Nova on 12/7, Hield was held to 18 points, which is one of his lower point totals of the season, and the Sooners still crushed them by 23 as a 5 point underdog. I totally understand Nova being a small favourite in this situation, given how they've looked. But that being said, I really like Oklahoma to cover and win.
