5-GAME COLLEGE BASKETBALL TOURNEY BONANZA!

Our 5 selections include Butler, Kansas, Baylor, New Mexico and Kansas State.

At 3:20 pm, our selection is on the Butler Bulldogs minus the points over Murray State, as Butler falls into 34-8, 14-0, and 35-14 ATS momentum systems of mine that each play on certain teams off a pointspread win. Butler has always performed superbly vs. non-conference foes, as it is 96-62 ATS in this situation, including an awesome 46-21 if the Bulldogs are off back-to-back wins, and 21-7 ATS if the line is 5 points or less! Take Butler.

At 5:40 pm, our selection is on the Kansas Jayhawks over Northern Iowa, as underdogs priced from +7 to 13 points are an awful 20% ATS in the Tournament since 1990, if they're off an upset win, have won 4+ games overall, are seeded 6th or lower, and matched up against a foe off a pointspread loss. Moreover, Kansas has covered nine straight games in the 2nd round of the Tournament dating back to 1999. With Kansas in off an uninspiring 90-74 win over Lehigh, as a 25-point favorite, we'll look for the Jayhawks to bounce back with a better effort, and get the $$$ today. Lay the points.

At 5:45 pm, our selection is on the Baylor Bears minus the points over Old Dominion, as Baylor falls into 35-14, 29-8 and 79-37 ATS systems of mine, each of which fades the Monarchs off their mild upset of Notre Dame (51-50, as a 2.5-point underdog). Additionally, Old Dominion is a very poor 10-25 ATS off a pointspread win, and teams seeded #11 or worse are an awful 35% in the Tourney's 2nd and 3rd rounds when priced at +2.5 points or higher. Take Baylor.

At 5:50 pm, our selection is on the New Mexico Lobos over Washington, as UNM falls into 30-7, 21-6, and 37-15 ATS systems of mine, as well as a 71% contrarian angle, which plays on teams off three or more ATS losses, in the first two rounds of the Tournament, who are matched up against foes off back-to-back SU/ATS wins. Unfortunately, we played on New Mexico on Thursday, and that was not a good result for us. Still, the Lobos are one of the best teams against the spread over the past three years, with a 58-36 ATS record, including 11-2 (85% ATS) vs. a non-conference foe off a SU/ATS win. I won't fade those numbers. Take New Mexico.

At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Kansas State Wildcats minus the points over BYU, as K-State falls into 44-19 and 43-21 ATS momentum systems of mine that play on certain teams in the 2nd round of the NCAA Tournament, who are off a SU/ATS win. The Wildcats are dressed up in one of their better roles today, as they're a very strong 66% ATS over the last 20 years, on home or neutral courts, when favored vs. non-conference foes who are off a SU win. And the Cougars are a horrible 31-64 ATS away from home, if they're off a win, and matched up against a .500 (or better) opponent. Take Frank Martin's Wildcats.

Kentucky -9

Not sold at all on Wake. Texas has been TERRIBLE all season after they dropped a #1 ranking, and while I thiouyght they could beat a Wake team who limped in here, they stunk again and Wake won in OT. I like going against teams off an OT upset win, and Kentucky, simoply put, is the best team I have seen in round 1 of this tourney, and granted they played a 16 seed, but they are stracked, BIG in t he paint, unreal in transition and better than Kansas in my mind. Wake has managed 2 wins int heri last 7 games and are going to get blown out here, Kentucky should up 10 at half and not look back. Play 1 Unit on Kentucky.

Baylor -4.5

There were many upsets on the first day of NCAA Tourney action with Old Dominion's 51-50 victory over Notre Dame kicking the barrage off. We were on the Monarchs in that one, as not only do we have much respect for the CAA, but we felt that the Irish's sloth like offense would play right into the underdogs hands. And we were right as the game was played at ODU's preferred pace throughout and they were able to overcome a slow start to grab the lead late and steal the win. This second round matchup with Baylor, however, is not a favorable matchup at all. The athleticism of the Bears will be a major advantage with their own 2-3 zone even better than that of the Monarchs. Offensively, we do not see ODU being able to contain the 6'10" Ekpe Udoh, who averages 14.1 PPG and 9.9 RPG. The Monarchs are undersized on the front line and leading scorer F Gerald Lee will be preoccupied on the defensive end. Consider that in its opening round game, Baylor scored 68 points and that is considered a low-scoring effort for the Bears. They average 77.6 PPG and in their three previous wins scored 86, 92 and 86 points. The only reason they did not cover vs. Sam Houston State was a slow start and a high number. Big edge in the backcourt too here with Tweety Carter and LaceDarius Dunn being able to break down the ODU pressure. Playing away from Waco, Baylor is 15-5 ATS its last 20 non-conference games. This should be where ODU's run comes to an end as they are 0-6 ATS the last three seasons when on a winning streak of six games. They are also 11-26 ATS off an ATS win. Baylor is our 2nd Round Game of the Year.
