    Syracuse vs Virginia poll

    One of the biggest games of the year features Syracuse taking on Virginia.

    It's a big game and I think the winner will go to the Final 4.

    There's much more ageement with this line and forecasters. I'll tell you early that a more public line is in tune with the current line of -8. Sharper forecasts make it closer, but not by much, and I have Virginia winning by 6 points. I can see why this line is sitting at 8 but can see some pressure on Virginia and anticipate more.

    The line may not move much and is, for the most part, pretty sharp but I'm sure there will be a lot of Virginia tickets written tomorrow.

    I would expect to see public support tomorrow on the Over as well even though many non predicitive and weaker models show a lower scoring (less that 124) game. I have more of a 134 point game and would expect to see this line rise among pressure from many groups before game time, despite the early drop.

    I have no play at this point but there is more information to be gained before tip off. If the books hold this line at 124 through tomorrow morning, depending on the pressures I see, I will consider the Over for this game.

    I like Virginia here.. but probably will stay away from games today. They're all in the ACC, they all know each other. This is much different than a normal Elite 8 game. No adjusting for a new team with only a day to prepare. They all know each other, they have reports on each other, and have practiced and prepared for each other before.

    If I had to pick I'd say Virginia here and ND in the other game.

    Virginia -7.5 and Under 124.5 here. Syracuse should have a hard time scoring much more than 50 points this game.

    Virginia is just too experienced and their defense is tough and they haven't yet played their best. Brogdon who is probably one of the top 10 players in college has been 4 for 19 from three. If he shoots it well...
