    Bucknell +13.5 and Nevada +6.5 Today's best plays
    I've actually watched Bucknell play twice this year. they play team ball and will deal with WVA pressure. Should be in the game throughout. WVA still can't shoot, and that keeps the Bison in the game.
    Nevada has been strong all year. 23-9 ats which shows consistency. They score 80 ppg and should have no problems keeping up with Iowa St. Should be close and tight throughout.
    GL today everybody.

    West Virginia *should* blow Bucknell out, but Nevada looks like a good play. They could very well win straight up in a shootout.

      I put Nevada ml in a nice parlay with Bucknell ats and Maryland ml that pays over 10:1 so i hope they pull off the upset. Bucknell isn't gonna be phased by WVA. I think the Big 12 is average. Baylor isn't a legit 3 seed and Kansas as a 1 got blessed to be in a bracket with the weakest 2 seed and Oregon as a 3 that isn't very strong when they leave Eugene.

        if Bucknell handles pressure, it will be a good game. Just worried they couldn't/wouldn't so didn't play it

          I honestly don't know what's gonna happen with ISU-Nevada other than it's going to be a wild shootout, but just remember that West Virginia opened up as the biggest favorite among the 4 seeds at -14 I believe. Bucknell is going to get thrashed imo.

            Kinda surprising that WVA is all of a sudden shooting the lights out. If they continue it could be hard to keep under a 15 point game.

                Bucknell shooting rest of half with 10 to go. that'll help ease the pressure some

                  Bucknell could pull an upset here.

                    Depends on the refs. they are letting WVU slap and push and Bucknell isn't getting any breaks where they are getting called for every bump down low.

                        yeah officiating has been awful for Bucknell so far. Hard to beat WV when they can play that physical, especially against a team like Bucknell that isn't that strong with the ball and probably doesn't tolerate physical play as well as most

                                Great 2h so far. Expect wvu to start getting very discouraged soon. Bucknell has the perfect mentality to stick around in this game!!

                                  Great coaching at half. they are attacking instead of waiting. and a few 3's dropped. looking good.

                                          Bucknell was absolutely right side. Obvious now but seemed like way too many points for anyone that has seen bucknell play.

                                            That's how i feel about Nevada as well. Hope i'm right.

                                              N1 with Bucknell! I cashed Belmont in a similar situation last night. I like Nevada +6.5 but I'm on Over 155.5 pretty big already! Nevada made me believe they have a little magic when they were down 13 with a minute left vs New Mexico and beat them. That was insane! I've seen them 3-4 other times and the way they scramble around and shoot 3s reminds me of VCU during their run. Iowa St is sort of a bad matchup though because they're small/quick too.

                                              I like the winner to beat Purdue. The Boilers are slow/stiff. They played VCU that year and were 9-10 pt favs and lost by 20. Huuuuuggggeeee quickness advantage to the winner of this game

                                              Nevada to make Sweet 16....I picked up $25 at +865......$216 payoff

                                                The over should hit as at least one team should be in the 80s and whoever is down should be hitting a few 3's to keep up. Something to think about with Purdue. They are strong down low, but big and slow. Pace will be interesting. GL with that play.
