Madness Thursday

Creighton +3.5

VCU +2.5

Michigan -135 

Michigan is a bigger play. Wouldn't have recommended betting this team the entire year given the TO issues & how well UCSD does taking the ball away. But one thing not really being talked about is the little spark lit under this teams a** at the end of the regular season and an impressive run to a B1G tournament win after a poor month plus. Reminds me a little of the plane situation a few years back. Hoping to see a little more Cason who got some run in the conf tournament and was impressive to me. The bigs for Michigan have massive advantages down low as there are TWO 7 footers vs a team with tallest guy of 6'8". They're not just 7 footers but ball handling bigs who should dominate this game. Can't double both of them. Situationally & matchup on the floor I like my squad to ROLL tonight. but i get why this is such a popular upset pick on the board.

Good luck HN.

 Not many on Michigan that's for sure. I like them because of the size advantage like you have pointed out and SOS is 189 for SD and 13 for Michigan. If Michigan can limit the dumb turnovers they should win this game going away.

Good Luck! 

Agree! 

Careful with the high flying/jump shooting offensive teams in round one today all. Tournament balls are not the balls these teams play with all year. Grab some unders where theres value!

12 seeds who are favored or dogs by 4 or less points are 0-5 ATS over the past 5 tournaments and 4-8 ATS the past decade.

Colorado ST & UCSD apply as R1 fades. Memphis has some serious injury issues though I actually really like CSU alot tomorrow.

Yale +7.5

Anybody looking to mix it up having a tough first day of the tourney I got an NHL play for the evening.

Edmonton ML 

Got waxed by the Jets on their home ice already this season. Think this is a major payback spot for the Oilers & this is a time of year the better teams rise and the pretenders falter. Jets are notorious jokers.
