SWEET 16

[Jord20]

Man, what a disappointing tournament and season SO FAR. Couldn't make up much group in the 2nd round -some shitty 2nd halves mainly.

37-45 -76.2

My average game has been around 6, so this can still be made up.

Played these already...

Arkansas +8.5 7x - Zags are good, but still too inflated

Michigan +5 9x - Love the way they are playing, and think this version of Nova is very vulnerable

Purdue -12.5 8x
Under 136 8x - I see no scenario where the Petes can keep up or score with any consistency. Mismatch

UCLA -2 10x - Maybe get into this more later. UNC has a way of making you silly. If they play at their peak, it could happen. COaching mismatch and seasoned, solid players vs the vol of the Heels. I think there are just way too many game states that favor a solid UCLA win here. Also, think line may trickle up unless we get bad Jacquez news.

Jord. You?re gonna bet Arkansas ? You know they had 12 baskets. Total. 12. In their last game lol

Not ?going to? - already did.

I watched. 2 awful games by Arkansas. Also, against 2 grudgingly slow and defensive teams. This game flow will for their style way better. I think it will be refreshing. And 8.5 is healthy

Jacquez is a soldier, he WILL suit up. print it.

that means shit, need to see how he moves and executes.

I dont bet on intangibles when they can be avoided.


Likely the best game to wait and bet HT in this round.

Hey Jord, I was wondering if you had an opinion on TT/Duke yet? If the Zags, Az, or Ku wins it all I stand to do very well in bracket contest if TT beats Duke. I?m considering hedging a little on Duke. IMO ucla is the only team outside the 3 needed that can win the whole thing. Remember if I?m wrong this time it will be the first time ever! 😂

Thanks for your time

I am not Jord so sorry for butting in [emoji4] I have loved Arizona all year and put money on them early on to win it all. That said, Houston scares the bejeezus out of me and the line tells me that Zona is probably in big trouble! Good luck!

You are in a good spot.

At this point, i like Kansas and Purdue the best. Agree with UCLA, but done sleep on Ivey. Though, obviously Zags are as good a bet as anybody too.

I don?t love the way Zona is playing. That Houston line is shorttttt. But Houston been a KenPom and ratings favorite for a bit now. Then Nova/Michigan going to be a handful

Duke/TT is an interesting contrasting game. I believe TT is the better team and in the better conference. Duke will get the calls, have the talent, and i just feel this game is dirty and dangerous. I?m leaning Duke at this point. But, I?m digging into this one a bit before playing.

I agree on Duke/TT
I was wondering if they?d make raiders favorite and they did
But I?ve been down this road in the tourney with Duke before.
I?ve tempered expectations - tech is slightly better team
Duke with loads of talent and a Duke W wouldn?t surprise me one bit.
There?s better percentage outcomes elsewhere like your Purdue call

THE wild card in the tourney is Duke. Do they want to give their Golden Boy Coach K one more national title as a parting gift? And don't think they don't control things. I watched them get Peyton a final ring when he couldn't throw the ball downfield 20 yards!

Thanks for the responses. I appreciate the discussion

Damn, Jord...looks like we are riding together on a lot of picks this week. Have a similar sentiment on Arkansas, especially. Think the Hogs have a legit shot at beating the ALMIGHTY Zags. Duke and UCLA---I think they get through to the weekend, too.
