I’ll be posting my latest bracketology later tonight, but I just wanted to give a quick summary of the bubble situation at this point in time.  Basically, there are, in my opinion, 8 teams fighting for 4 spots.  Those teams in order of their current seeding are: Florida, Illinois, Ole Miss, Washington, Mississippi State, Rhode Island, Dayton, [...]

These spreads are based on the current lines according to the World Sports Exchange, and they are ordered from most confident to least confident.

These spreads are based on the current lines according to the World Sports Exchange, and they are ordered from most confident to least confident.  Arizona (Pick) vs. UCLA- Don’t know why this is a pick’em.  Zona is the better team and easily swept their regular season meetings.

One small college pick for you today: Stephen F. Austin (-3.0) vs. UT-Arlington- SFA and Sam Houston should both roll through this tourney until they meet on Saturday afternoon in the title game.  The Lumberjacks (SFA) beat the Mavs (UTA)  by 7 in their only meeting this season.  Overall Season Record: 32-22

This is the time of year where we begin to talk about mid-majors.  First, we focus on their exciting conference tourneys where only the winner gets to put on dancing shoes.  Then, we get inspired by mid-major Cinderella stories as they emerge in the Big Dance.  However, it always seemed to me that college basketball analysts throw [...]

The teams below are displayed below on an S-curve, so they are ranked from left to right within each seeding line.  The italicized teams are ones predicted to win their conference tourney and gain an automatic bid to the dance.  The bolded teams have already won an auto bid to either the NCAA or NIT tournament.  For the conferences [...]

Only got one today. Richmond (-3.5) vs. Dayton- The Flyers need it more, but they’re not playing well enough right now to win at Richmond.  The Spiders win comfortably here to maintain their 7 seed. Yesterday’s Record: 0-2, Overall Season Record: 26-20

Villanova (-3.5) vs. Cincinnati- The Wildcats are coming off a blowout loss in the Carrier Dome and wil be looking for blood in Cincy.  Meanwhile, the Bearcats are struggling down the stretch and don’t [...]

 Jackson State (-1.5) vs. Arkansas Pine-Bluff- This line is so likable it’s scary.  The Tigers are 14-1 in the SWAC, have won 13 in a row, are playing at home, and already beat the Golden Lions by 5 points on the road earlier this season.  I don’t pick SWAC games very often, but I will be shocked if the Tigers don’t win [...]
