Missouri (pk)vs Cincinnati
Pick: Mizzou
If you loved the Arkansas Razorback teams of old, you have to the '40 minutes of hell' attitude that the Missouri Tigers play with. 'Nati might have 25 turnovers this game. I know everyone loves the Big East again this year, but this is not a good matchup for the Bearcats.
BYU -8.5 vs Wofford
Pick: Wofford
This line is a trick. It is the closest line of any of the top 3 seeds, and for good reason. Wofford may be the more athletic team in this matchup. Take the points here as the great white hype that is Jimmer Fredette is making this line larger than it should be. Also BYU will miss Brandon Davies big time in this match up.
UCLA +1.5 vs Michigan State
Pick: UCLA
Ok so I know just a week ago I told you that you don't bet against the greatest tournament coach ever this time of year--- Tom Izzo. But I say a lot of things, so every once in a while I have to change my tune. And one of those times is now. UCLA is playing well, and is more athletic than any team in the Big Ten, so this will be a huge challenge for the inconsistent Spartans. Izzo will keep it close, but this team is coming off a 33 point effort vs Penn State, and doesn't have the guard play to make a run..
