Arkansas -1 Sportsinteraction(2.5 Dime Play) Arkansas took both match ups in the regular season a 4 point win on the road and a big win at home in convincing fashion. The one thing that sticks out to me when you look at the stats is that Georgia is the better rebounding team on paper, but when they played Arkansas in the two games they were -15 offensive rebounds and -18 overall in rebound margin. They also were at a -9 turnover ratio which was to be expected as they do carry a -4.8 turnover ratio in conference play. Arkansas really stepped up against Georgia and if Georgia can't rebound again it will be an easy win for us here. Georgia the last place team from the East Division vs. the #3 seed from the West. The East is clearly a more challenging conference with Tenn, Kentucky, and Vandy, but Georgia is 0-11 on the road this year and this game is technically a road game and I think they go 0-12 and get bounced out of the tourney.

Pitt -1.5 Sportsinteraction (3.3 Dime POD RU) I think we get a lucky line here as Notre Dame beat Pitt just a few weeks ago at home by 15. If you remember that game it was a game Notre Dame badly needed to stay in contention. Now they are likely in the NCAA tournament if you ask me. I'll name four things that were out of the ordinary for a Pitt team that won't happen again. They were -10 rebounds they are +1.5 on the season in conference compared to Notre Dame's +.5. They got to the FT line -11 times, and in conference they are +3 while Notre Dame is -.9. They gave up 50% shooting from the field and in conference they allow 41.8% and Notre Dame shoots 45.1. They also gave up 10-18 from three point land, and Pitt is only allowing 33% from the perimeter. Notre Dame coming off 0 days rest will give them some heavier legs in the 2nd half look for them not to be able to shoot the trey then so it's important for Pitt to get out to an early lead.

Tulsa -1 Sportsinteraction (4-Dime POD) Tulsa and Marshall played in two close games with each team taking their home game the stats are pretty close with Marshall shooting 41.6% from the field and Tulsa coming in at 39.8%. The difference between the two are Marshall with 39.1% from the perimeter compared to Tulsa at 29.4%. Tulsa a much better FT shooting team needs to get to the line tonight and despite being -6 FTA in the two game series they got there 31 times in the first match up at home. The reason I mention that is this game will be in a "like home atmosphere." as the Conference USA tournament is being played in Tulsa. Tulsa played here last night and already knows what to expect. That's why I give them the edge here tonight because they'll be a little more fresh while I think Marshall might come in a little rusty. In the two match ups Tulsa really dominated the paint with +14 rebounds and +7 offensive rebounds. No they come in with revenge in this situation I really like them playing a building they are familiar with. Add in that 33% of the public is on them and they opened up at +1 and have since moved to -1 and -1.5. Why is that against a team with a better record and a bye in this tournament as a higher seed. Why would the higher seed be under dogs in the match up?

Syracuse -5.5 Sportsbetting (1.5 Diem Free Play) I live the Orange in this situation as Georgetown come off 0 days rest to play what I think is the best team in the Big East. The Orange were #1 FG% offense and defense. They held the Hoyas under 40% shooting in the 2nd match up and led by as much as 30 points. I see the Orange extremely focused in this one. The only reason it's not a premium selection is I know these lines especially in the Big East are extremely sharp. If you are looking for a game where you can put your feet up at half time and know you will win this one is not for you. It will come down to FTs at the end of the game, but I think for the most part Syracuse will lead by 6-10 points throughout. The Hoyas definitely are a force to be reckon with come tournament time, but the Orange are in a class of their own with their 2-3 zone defense. Greg Monroe had a good game in the last game to get his team back in the game, but I think the Orange big men will have a closer eye on him today. Yesterday I was 0-2 in free NCAAB picks, but went 3-0 in my premium plays winning on St. Johns, Notre Dame, and Cal Poly +125 late. Make sure you check out my daily packages as I'll look to continue my 64% run in the last 42 days on my NBA POD's which had another winner last night with the Kings.

UCLA -1 BODOG (3.3 Dime play) UCLA lost to Zona twice this year, but some times the third time is a charm and I think the Bruins will have the last laugh on neutral court. Why else would they open up at +1 with all the public on Arizona and move to being -1 favorites? Why would they be favorites if they lost to Arizona twice this year and they have the worse record overall and in conference play. I really like how the Bruins finished down the stretch and they have a better offense than Arizona shooting 47.4% in road games this year. Their weaknesses are the same as Arizona another young team. UCLA -2.7 TO per game on the road and Arizona also -2.6 TO per game. UCLA is a little bit better at rebounding the ball but they are basically even. I just think UCLA has too much to play for with revenge and they have done a good job of playing coming off a loss as they are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 following a SU loss.
