this should be an amazing game. the one thing i am banking on here is that ttu will be stifled by the height that michigan's d offers. not only that, they tend to turn the ball over on the road a lot. i'm banking on turnovers turning into fouls and beilein capitalizing off of this. this should be an amazing game but i think michigan gets more physical off the boards and takes the w. the one thing i am unsure of is the point distribution from michigan. one michigan doesn't have a defined go to shooter. poole or matthews is really going to have to step up today and keep a good pace. we saw a glimpse from poole early on their last game but he then got cold very quick, which allowed florida to get a small taste of coming back into the game

got a real problem when simpson, your guy with the most minutes, is 0/3 with 1 rebound, 1 assist and 3 turnovers.

MTD - 26-23 (+21.9u)
5U - 12-6

well yesterday sucked. ttu completely dominant to michigan. beilein is going to have to do some serious offensive work with that team. zavier simpson gotta go. end of story. you can't have your guard afraid to shoot the ball like that. guy had the most minutes and not one point, he's too small to rebound, and to be honest, just not talented enough to be starting line up caliber.

i'm not sure what tot hink of virginia probably because you never get the same consistency from virginia in both halves of the game. one half they stinkl up the joint, the other they blow the competition away. unfortunately the dominating virginia team only showed up in the first half yesterday to kill both my full game and 2h play. i want to say purdue rocks them but i don't trust the reliability of edwards. that dude is amazing but he throws up a ton of garbage. i don't think haarms will have success because he's not that physical and that kid diakite is nails. really like watching him play. i think he is going to give haarms massive problems all night tomorrow. i've said it before and i'll say it again, if you can remove edwards from purdue, you don't have the purdue team we saw last night. they also got VERY lucky with the refs.

moving on to today.. got msu locked in from a few days ago still. plenty of opportunity to get back into the plus for the sweet sixteen and roll into profit for the elite 8.

gonna look into the rest of the card and have plays a little later. really itching to fire off on auburn if i can get 6. i do see that bovada is offering it right now. good luck today, everyone!

houston +2.5 (5u)

i can't quite figure out why this line is so generous other than the big name. this, with the coach, has cost me some profits a few times this year: kansas against auburn, michigan over ttu, wiscy over oregon. the big house hold names that dominate each year. books still showing them as favorites even though they haven't proved to be as the season passed. and i played right into it. so i'm going to lock this one up before i overthink it any further.

i believe the tides are turning and the big names we are used to seeing might begin to fade out closing out march. i was going back and forth on this one for a while mulling over the presence of pj washington. honestly, how long will he play even if he does play? this dude was in a hard cast and now he is qualified for a balls to the wall sweet 16 game? kentucky was not overly impressive against wofford, and for a while it appeared they weren't going to cover. they were very fortunate to have half of wofford's dynamic duo go cold, going 0-14 in that game. a couple three pointers and that game would've been completely different. houston's d is a notch about kentucky in almost every metric. one thing that worries me is the height as houston is much smaller but read above about pj washington. another thing that worries me about houston is the lack of caliber they played throughout the season, but experience should overcome that as they have been down this path before. armani brooks and corey davis should really be able to take advantage of the three point line, which is where kentucky's d lacks. if they can knock down their shots and have the same success that they had against an osu team, who's perimeter d was even better than kentucky's, there's no reason they shouldn't be able to secure the W
