Wow! Some really close games including a #1 seed falling (CRASH.... the sound of broken brackets are still being heard everywhere!!!) we have been treated to an interesting afternoon of hoops.
As Jdawg says, "Zebra Madness", in the Pitt vs Butler game with 3 fouls in the final 8 seconds led to crazy swings of emotions and an improbable finish. Pitt has no one to blame but themselves who dug themselves a big hole in the first half and couldn't sustain the lead when they had it in the second.
Butler was able to cover the 7.5 point spread and the total easily went OVER 128.
Jimmer Time!
BYU destroyed Gonzaga by a surprising 24 points led by a possessed Jimmer Fredette who went off for 34 points. Jimmer made some unbelievable shots and lived up to all the hype.
Gonzaga dominated in the paint, but couldn't guard the BYU guards who were 14-29 (48.3%) from beyond the arc. Great matchup with BYU taking on Florida in the sweet 16 coming up!
So the Zags not covering makes us 3-1 for the day, (good with Kentucky, Florida, & late magic by San Diego St.). Looking for a strong finish with Wisconsin and UConn to make today a good one.
Sunday Spreads:
An early look at the spreads for tomorrow has an interesting 9:15am matchup with UNC -4 against WAS. The total has been set to amazing 158! Is it high enough or maybe a bit too high?
With VCU on a roll, is Purdue -9.0 a bit high?
Spending some time to break this down. Lates. D$ OUT
