If the First Four games are any indication for the rest of the tournament, we are in for a great weekend. We had 2 games go down to the final second with two missed buzzer-beaters and an annual Tom Izzo freakout. As a Michigan fan I should be on the snooty “HE PUT HIS HANDSContinue reading “East Round One Preview”

South Region Preview
Well…we started off NIT action going 0-2, but that doesn’t matter because the NCAA Tournament officially starts today! If you want to see the first four picks you can go here: First Four. Yesterday we previewed all of the games from the Midwest region, which you can find here: Midwest Region and today we willContinue reading “South Region Preview”
Midwest Round One Preview
Let’s goooooo! After previewing the First Four/NIT on Monday and boring myself yesterday previewing Saturday of the NIT, it’s time to get into the tournament. We’ll break this down region by region so we have a blog to read every day leading up to the tournament. After a year without a tournament last year, I’mContinue reading “Midwest Round One Preview”
NIT Friday/Saturday (who cares)
Yesterday we took a look at the Wednesday and Thursday of the NIT: today we’ll look at four games we won’t watch because we’ll be too busy with the NCAA tournament, but matchups between teams who can win it all. Let’s do this. NIT Friday Buffalo vs CSU(-1.5) (154) CSU desperately needed one more winContinue reading “NIT Friday/Saturday (who cares)”
NIT/First 4 preview
Although it was another losing Sunday, you gotta be fired up for the greatest 3 weeks of the year! It’s finally arrived, let’s goooo!! I really need to get right with the Good Lord and avoid picking games on the sabbath, but I can’t help myself. Still, I’ll take a 17-9 Championship Week with someContinue reading “NIT/First 4 preview”
Selection Sunday
What a Semi-Final Saturday. There are going to be a lot of really good, deserving mid-majors who will be disappointed today because the Oregon State Beavers won the PAC-12…WHAT?!?! I’m standing by my take, any team who loses to Oregon State doesn’t deserve to go to the big dance, so I’m sorry PAC-12, but youContinue reading “Selection Sunday”
Semi-Final Saturday
I said it suuuucks, to be, a CSU Raaaaam. Utah State knocked those losers into the NIT and HOW HE HAS THEM ABOVE BOISE STATE IS RIDICULOUS. If Memphis even puts up a fight against Houston today, they should replace Saint Louis and any team who loses to Oregon State should be automatically eliminated, includingContinue reading “Semi-Final Saturday”
Feel Good Friday
I’ll take a 4-3 day, but how could anyone let me follow through with the OU@Kansas over after I said all signs point toward this being a stalemate. My dumb brain can’t help but see two Big12 schools and hammer the over. There were some great games yesterday, but I got a bone to pickContinue reading “Feel Good Friday”
Mid-Week Observations
I take no accountability for getting all of the Mid-Major conference tournaments wrong, if you followed my advice (with 11-17 Oakland) call 1-800-GAMBLER. That being said, we’re about to get hot with some conference tournament matchups (more on that tomorrow), but let’s take a look at the Monday-Wednesday action so far. College Basketball Congratulations toContinue reading “Mid-Week Observations”
Conference Tournament Week
I really need to take Sundays off and focus on my inner peace and thank the good lord for my ability to pick games on Fridays/Saturdays. After going 6-2 Friday/Saturday, we turned around and went 1-4 on Sunday. Michigan played some uninspired basketball and several number 1 seeds went down in mid-major conference tournament play.
