Uk beats W Virgina.... ND beats Wichita.... _________> Uk beats ND
NC State beats Louisville... Oklahoma beats Michigan State.... __________> NC State beats Oklahoma _______________________________________> UK beats NC State WI beats N Carolina.... AZ beats Xavier.... __________> Toss up on who I think will win, but I am leaning more towards AZ Duke beats Utah.... Gonzaga beats UCLA... ___________> Gonzaga beats Duke _________________________________________> WI or Az beats Gonzaga (I know this is a weird pick and Gonzaga is better than them both, but I forsee some upsetting going on) Final 2: Uk beats Az or if WI is in, then WI beats UK. I just don't see UK going all the way without getting cocky
Of winning it all, so Kentucky better not get to cocky. For what it's worth I like your zaga over UCLA pick. These are college kids so I won't be too confident until zags are up and clock hits zero.
They are after all an 8 1/2 point favorite, and I absolutely FORBID you to lay the money line on them which most likely will be at least -450 if you can even find a bookie who will offer it.
Now picking them to beat Duke, assuming of course that they actually meet, now that's sticking your neck out a bit.
Right now it's at -425 if I can get it at 400 or better the temptation maybe to much to pass up. Truth be told that was one of the games I was studying this week before seeing her picks. If I do it I know you are going to give me a verbal beating if the zags lose, as far as beating duke I would call that a toss up.
They play with more pride and passion than a pro. I don't see college kids giving up throughout the game then smirking when they are back on top. They just stay focused and play.
I remember the year before this one when I was taking a Sunday redeye home for Thanksgiving. I put a lot of money on New England vs Denver. They couldn't get in to the end zone to save their lives. I fake burned the ticket on a fake candle. After halftime I started to slowly uncrumble it. I nearly missed my flight thanks to overtime, but I got to cash that bad boy in.
Funny since Patriots are one of those teams that pout when losing, but smirk when they come back. I remember the smirks oh so clearly that night.
from my experiences most of my big leads squandered were from college kids, for example I had a game earlier this year team up 16 points with 4 mins left and they still found a way not to cover the spread.
For that to happen, Gonzaga has to play their A game and Duke their B game.
If both play their A game, Duke will win. If both play their B game, Duke will win.
I don't see the Zags 300 pound plus center being able to run the court with Jah. And for once the Zags guards are about the same size as the Duke guards, but not as good. On the other hand, sometimes Duke doesn';t play any defense and teams that drive the ball to the basket kill them. But the Zags don't really have the type of dribble drive offense that Duke ca't stop.
