Perfect matchup today for a BLOWOUT by the Jayhawks.
Yes, Kansas did struggle to put away North Dakota State, but the Bison were a very dangerous team. I don't feel the Flyers are nearly as dangerous, and I think this young Kansas team is gaining confidence with each passing game.
Dayton sports 7 losses this year, 6 of them coming by 8-points or more. When the Flyers lose, they tend to lose big! The Jayhawks are 7-2 their last 9 games, and 6-2-1 against the spread in those 9. Bill Self's team may not defend their title, as they lost too much to the NBA, but this Kansas team is more than capable of blowing this Dayton team out. I will lay the points in this one, as I feel this is the biggest blowout on the Sunday card!
10 DIMER - OKLAHOMA STATE COWBOYS
Pittsburgh was exposed a little bit against East Tennessee State, as the Panthers turned it over way too many times for the G-Man's liking in winning by just 10-points over the #16 seed.Conversely, Oklahoma State continues to grind it out, as they nipped Tennessee late on Friday to make it 9-2 straight up their last 11 games, and 10-1 against the spread in those 11 games!The 'Pokes have seen their fair share of big men playing in the Big 12 conference, so I don't think they are going to let Young, and Blair exploit them is the paint. I also don't trust Fields handling the ball for Jamie Dixon's team, he turns it over too many times for my liking.The Panthers are just 3-4 against the spread their last 7 games, ALL as the favorite, and while I expect them to get by, I don't expect them to cover this game.
Take the points.
10 DIMER - CLEVELAND STATE VIKINGS
Your "Cinderella" story of this year's Big Dance could very well be the Vikings of Cleveland State.I know Wake Forest hadn't been playing well of late, but to see Cleveland State dismantle that ACC team was something else.
The Vikes have won their last 5, and better still is the fact the Vikes have covered their last 5 in the underdog role.
Arizona did tune up Utah in the opener, but the matchups were in their favor in that one, that won't be the case today, and the fact remains the Wildcats are just 2-5 straight up their last 7 games.
Take State, as the clock has not yet come close to striking midnight for this Cinderella.

Game: Southern Cal vs Michigan State
Pick: Play On: Michigan State - 3.5
Reason: Southern Cal vs Michigan State 5:00 PM EST
Play On: Michigan State -3.5
Southern Cal is 22-12 this year while Michigan State is 27-6 on the season. Southern Cal is 4-8 SU as an underdog this year while Michigan State is 22-4 SU as a favorite. Michigan State is 8-2 ATS since 1997 as a neutral court favorite of 3 1/2 to 6 points. The difference in this game is going to be how each team plays on the road. Southern Cal is only 6-10 SU on the road this year while Michigan State is an amazing 15-3 SU on the road this season. I feel like the Michigan State defense is better than Southern Cal's as they allow only 62.9 points per game. Spartans are 14-3-1 ATS in their last 18 NCAA Tournament games as a favorite.
We'll recommend a small play on
Michigan State - 3.5
