Marquette (+5.5) at UConn

Marquette has 7 losses on the year that combine to 25 POINTS! They have kept the game within 5 points in EVERY game this year outside of one (a 9 point loss at Wisky in December that was actually a close game). They played Syracuse to a 5 point game AT SYRACUSE and West Virginia to a 1 point game AT WEST VIRGINIA. Not to mention only losing AT VILLANOVA by 2 points. They are 3-5 in the Big East because they've played a BRUTAL schedule so far that includes the following:

@ Syracuse, Villanova, West Virginia, DePaul
Home: Villanova, Providence, Georgetown, Rutgers

UConn has had some solid wins lately over Texas and St Johns but I just dont trust my money with these guys. They've had a knack for blowing leads which is the last thing you want if your laying 5.5-6 points.





Vanderbilt (+8.5) at Kentucky

[Ralphie1412]

I saw that too. Marquette is solid.

[Soxsfan9]

Really like this Lean TPowell, Marquette is a scrappy team that should give UCONN a good game.

Vanderbilt (+8.5) at Kentucky

Maybe I'm wrong here but I really believe Vanderbilt will come out with just as much fight as UK. They are leading the SEC right now and have won at South Carolina and Tennessee, two places Kentucky HAVE NOT won at this year. Vandy plays a very distinct style of basketball that quite frankly annoys teams like Kentucky. With the status of star player DeMarcus Thuggins in question, Vandy is the EASY play here to me. Who has Kentucky beat this year? Wins over UConn and UNC teams who were floundering at that time? Wins over Louisville and Florida who arent even NCAA teams right now?

[TPowell]

never know but I dont like how UConn is playing better right now. Still, Buzz Williams plays some scrappy ball

[TPowell]

Washington State (+8) at Washington

I'm not an expert on Pac 10 basketball but it seems like the conference is equally bad. I know Washington is solid at home and WSU tends to struggle away from home, but 8 points seems like 2-3 too many. I'd say this game would be a pick withouy location, so is home court advantage really worth 8 points?? Not to mention this is an intrastate game that WSU has covered 4 straight times on the road. Not enough knowledge to really bet this game but very interested as I think WSU is a good play

[TPowell]

Georgia (+7) at South Carolina

South Carolina coming off the programs best win will face an improving Georgia team at home Saturday. If South Carolina doesnt come out ready to play, they will lose this game outright. Georgia can play good basketball at times. I think the number should be a little higher but 7 isnt terrible. South Carolina is very one dimensional. The way Kentucky played in that game was absolutely terrible. I would take the road dogs again!

[pavyracer]

[regretz]

I like Vandy too, gl

[rake922]

what you think of the LSU game

[Law-Byrnes]

I like Oklahoma State.

[TPowell]

Okie State is another road dog I like. Have been mostly takin time off. Just realized the grind of this wasnt worth it. Have been working 30+ hours a week as well as going to school so its been tough

[Iwinyourmoney]

good luck

[elevate]

I like the picks and thanks for the write-ups

You're not wrong. That looks like one of the best dog plays on the board.

[HoulihansTX]

Vandy is the play.

[khaden]

Really like marq--tp is right their schedule has been insane. They are tough and they are a play or two away from beating everyone they play.

Vanderbilt (+8.5) at Kentucky

just seems like uconn doesnt have the drive this year,they need to get there act in gear soon or they wont make the dance

[Rick22]

Nice to see you back TP - the way my picks have been going I certainly look forward to your input.

[KyleG44]

I was on Marquette also. Every game they play is close.

[TPowell]

unreal how the Washington game ended. They were up 13 point ATS at half and lost the second half by 20+ points

[Shortstop]

Marquette loses at DePaul and then wins at UCONN, that makes sense.
