BIG AL's 1st ROUND GAME OF THE YEAR (5-1 Last 6 Years) -- Friday
At 12:40 pm, on Friday, our 1st Round Game of the Year is on the Wisconsin Badgers minus the points over Ole Miss. Wisconsin comes into this game off a 50-43 loss to Ohio State in the Big 10 Championship game, but were very strong in the two games before that, with upset wins over Michigan and Indiana to reach the Finals. Likewiss, the Ole Miss Rebels were impressive last weekend in winning the SEC, and finished it off with a 66-63 win over Florida, as an 11.5-point underdog. But one of the things I love to do is fade teams off big upset wins in their conference tourneys. And especially when they're matched up against foes off a big loss to end their season. Indeed, since 1991, teams which won their NCAA Tourney as an underdog of 5+ points are a dismal 18% ATS in the 1st Round of the NCAA Tourney when matched up against an opponent off a loss by 7 or more points.
