I'm not a believer of UConn this year.  I think they were way overrated coming into this season.  Notre Dame is a great play, IMO.

I'm expecting a terrific effort from the Hawkeyes today after consecutive losses to OSU and MSU by a combined 63 points and the Chair Slam Heard 'Round the World. Michigan has been in every game and isn't a stranger to the environment it will see at Carver-Hawkeye, but the helter-skelter Iowa tempo could be a problem for frosh PG Trey Burke. Michigan hosts Sparty on Tuesday in a major conference rivalry and a look-ahead is entirely possible. I'll be greatly disappointed if Iowa doesn't start fast right out of the gates.

One of my favorites and agree with your information. Best of luck today.

I still think ISU is undervalued. White will give Robinson one of his toughest tests of the year. Cyclones have a lot of experience with all of the transfers playing key roles. Big statement game for this team. Kansas has bigger fish to fry on Monday when Baylor comes to town.

Tulsa ML +105 @ East Carolina (1 unit)
I'm a big Tulsa fan. Love their size and rebounding against a small Pirates squad still trying to replace its highly-productive senior triumvirate from last season. The Hurricane have played a daunting schedule and been in almost every game until the end. Coach Wojcik and several players talked about how enormous it was to beat UTEP a few days ago, taking the pressure off after a rough stretch. Four of ECU's 9 wins have come against Division II teams! Best win? Coastal Carolina. C

The Huskies have looked lethargic but they have faced very good home teams. Seton Hall and Rutgers give all teams trouble, especially on their home floors. Then the game against West Virginia they really came out in the second hallf and showed their true selves. Ended up coming back to win it. Jim Calhoun will have his guys ready for this Fighting Irish team who lack a star. Drummond and Lamb will have their way. BOL though buddy with the rest of the picks today!!!

Forgot to add, I view Tulsa as the best sub-.500 team (8-9) in the country right now. Sounds weird to phrase it this way...

Losses to Northwestern (Ken Pom #60), St. Joes (58), Missouri State (54), OK State (91), and Wichita State (14) by a combined 26 points.

I don't like the way State is playing at all right now. They are very talented but they will struggle against Bama's half court defense. My problem with taking Alabama, besides it being on the road, it that State has a big front court and that has bothered Bama some this year against Kansas State and even other times the last couple of years. Bama went in there last year and dominated a team in disarray and shot lights out as well. I expect a very tight game today and I lean to Bama but I will just sit back and watch a pretty good game.

GL on ND Jfen..I ended up taking them as well when I learned of Boatright's suspension.  And that home court advantage they have really is a factor.

Also liking Iowa St...  White is a player...and I like their guards esp Christopherson, they defend, they get to the line and can shoot.
