NCAA Tourney 3/17 Picks

Here are my selections for Thursday

5 Star

Vandy -3 vs Richmond - I am confident that Vandy is the better team year and this will not be very close.

San Diego St -15.5 vs Northern Colorado- This is one of the bigger mismatches in the first round and the price of 15.5 is very reasonable.

BYU/Wofford over 147- Both teams like to play at a fast pace and should push this one over pretty easily.

Utah St/Kansas St under 128.5- You can count on Utah St walking the ball up the court and for the aggies to work the clock and try to wear down KSU. KSU can play the slow down game as well so I am looking for a pretty low scoring affair.

Top Picks

Clemson +2 vs WVU- The quick turnaround should not be a problem for the tigers.

Florida -13 vs Santa Barbara- Another sizable mismatch

Mich St/UCLA under 125- should be a deliberate effort by both teams who emphasize defense.

Gonzaga +1.5 vs St Johns- I have liked St John's all year but I think this is not a good matchup for Lavin's crew.

Leans:

Wisconsin -5
Temple -2.5
Old Dominion -2
