Games that will affect the Top 10 rankings in the past few days or so....

-Gonzaga with a dominating road win by 44 pts while Duke was  meh (tonight's results should determine who is #1 in my rankings) ...WON by 26 pts on Sat on the road...

Duke with a very powerful display!

-Auburn wins easily to stay undefeated against a good team
-Dayton with a nice steamroll
-BAYLOR with the most impressive win > beat Kansas easily- road!
-Powerful win by WVU at home over a very tough TTech team 
-San Diego St. looking extremely powerful in the 1st half to stay undefeated like Auburn

Have to re-think Sparty now......3 really really nonchalant bad wins this year and this team looks awesome on the court but if not hitting their shots....they fold. Purdue just gave the formula to beat Sparty in the NCAA tourney

Wichita with a nice win in double OT...keep grinding
Purdue moves into consideration...

Michigan drops again.....and my Gophers are tough and a nice ATS team to bet due to their record but I am not sure who has had a tougher 16 games than they have had from day 1

Big Shake up coming.....if San Diego St wins by 10 or more on the road, I would feel comfortable making them the #1 seed given their very capable bench and mostly senior team..

I think they could beat Gonzaga....not an issue. Probably 6 out of 10 times.

Wow....more shakeup to the Top 20 on Friday. I am glad I picked this week to lay off with the picks since I had a killer work week and could not put in the time.

Even if I did, who would have predicted Duke would lose easily and Dayton?

The game I want to see to settle the Top 5 is Gonzaga vs San Diego St.!!

Play #1 Saturday

Akron  -6.5   4x

Great defense and they can score at will.....just need to take care of guarding Mareon Jackson of Toledo so he does not go off and this should be an easy cover......huge edge for Akron on offensive boards as well

Watched BYU- Gonzaga tonight

BYU is a real nice team....would not want to play them but...

Gonzaga is a legit #1 team!! ....systems, size, passing and shooting and what struck me is their compete on defense after a shot goes up.

I have BYU as a Top 25 team but ......Gonzaga is in a class above!
