Agreed...Gonzaga is a joke.  They will probably beat akron but I cant seem them making it too far in this tourney

I have a funny feeling that Michigan is going to give Clemson a fit. Great coach in John Beilein and he will watch tape of how GTech beat them down in the conference tourny and come up with a gameplan. This is the 1st tourny appearnace for the Wolverines since 1998...they should be motivated. Bottom line...Clemson is a jekyl and hyde team...you don't know what you're gonna get. If Clemson plays their A game...that's a pretty sharp line at 5.5. However....I think this will be a great game and Michigan could actually win.

In general like the picks Bibendi...
 
However, like Memphis considerably over Cal State Northridge -- Big West is horrifically bad and Memphis is becoming a defensive juggernaut.  They are suffocating and SOOOOOO LONG; getting shots up against them is a serious chore.
 
Agree with RobertGould, Beilein is a GREAT COACH of an improving team.  Could go either way so I'll take the points.
 
Good luck all.  Bibendi I will be siding with most of your picks.  Let's make much money!!

Im not quite yet ready to doubt lawson.  I mean he played the following day after it happened played basically the whole game 36 minutes prolly would of played the whole game but being sr day he wasnt gonna start regardless.  He had 13 9 and 8.  Against radford he will not be needed.  He will have 2 weeks off since the injury an injury he played on.  No way he doesnt play.  I heard them say this weekend he was 85 percent.  By this weekend with all the work they are doing to that toe.  Dude gonna be over 90 percent. You will make it thru this week then have pretty much another whole week to rest.  Lawson will be fine

id like to think so but in an interview roy said no way hes 100% even if he plays. which means when he does play he won't be quite 100%. it will have been over 11 days since hes last played basketball so he may be rusty. also i think the cuse has over a 40% chance to beat UNC at full strength, their perimeter game will give UNC trouble.

BIB - What do you think about the AZ-UTAH game? 7 vs. 12 seeds but it's a PK in Vegas.
