Iona -7 over Quinn ****
Iona has been hit with more postponements then any other team in the country. They were getting hot winning 6 of last 8 games. They avg only 75 pts a game but that is Pitino's coachings. But they do get back and play something that people in New Rochelle haven't seen in years Defense..they only give up 69 pts a game. this team has only played 13 games.. So if Pitino has these kids in the gym everyday think they come out smoking tonight. Quinn has the Rigoni kid who is top scorer and rebounder. Iona has Joseph inside . And at the pt 5'7 Gist and top scorer Ross. Pitino has juco's ,transfers for immediate help ...you know he will get the best HS player in Greece next year. Iona doesn't have the best talent yet in the MAAC give him a year or two and he will. Iona has a better backcourt and front court. Rigoni is a 6'6 fd that can shoot the 3. Think Pitinos defense will slow him down. Also Iona shoots 75% from the FT line where Quinn shoots 67%. Quinn avgs 68 pts a game and gives up 69...
Mahnhattan -3 .5 over Fairfield **
This is 7 seed vs 11 seed..both teams are bad, both offenses are sooo bad. Fair avgs 62 pts a game and gives up 68 pts a game . Manhattan a little better. the 7th seed is he underdog so that is somewhat strange. Masiello the coach has now had 2 straight losing seasons and is on the hot seat. When he was winning 2 yrs ago he took another job and I forgot what school Then they find out he didn;t have a college degree.. but Manhattan took him back big mistake .. he's gone unless he can win the MAAC and if he loses tonight he is gone. But think he has his kids playing tough defense tonight.
Zaga -14 over BYU *****
Back a month ago Zaga beat BYU by 11.. tonight Zaga wins by +20 .. already wrote about them yesterday.. just go back to yesterdays post and its the same.. in fact forget going back . this team is focused and will not trip or fall until they get into the sweet 16 .. and when they trip in the sweet 16 that will still win ..
