Texas -4 over miami ***
They lost their coach earlier in the season ,then last night lost there top inside player in Dishu Although Texas is already weak inside the paint in scoring its Dishu's defense that will hurt more. Texas has the best 3 gds combo in the country Hunter Rice and Carr . Carr other then Nowell I think is the best player in the Tournament . But the Canes aren't an inside team They love to shoot the 3 and don't have a dominate post player They are athletic and can rebound but so can the Longhorns. .. Think Texas has more talent and depth but Pack from K-state is playing lites out Imagine Pack and Nowell were both at K-state last yr. And Sun Conf POY Omier and Def POY. Damn Sun conference let go Nowell now Omeir. Omier can rebound well and play shut down defense. Larranaga who goes to schools and coaching them to sucess is amazing. To see his dancing in the lockeroom the other day was precious. But to see his players respond to there older coach was more impressive. When you have coaches like that kids will go above and beyond .. Miami is athletic and can shoot. and rebound. A part homer call again because I have seen Texas play and although I will never eat a breakfast taco as long as I live in Texas think with the type of team the canes present to the Longhorns think Texas can get a win and cover. Texas w/o Dishu are weaker esp on post Defense .. That is what I think I'm scared of more then anything. But Bishop has elevated his game off the bench and although cannot replace Dishu and doesn't have the height he has showed he can play with the big guys. Wong, Pack and co will be tough to slow down but again I think Carr is the most underrated player in the country .
Passing on th Creighton-Sd State game I have Creighton a -1.5 to -2 fav. If it went to +2.5 might take SD St and their defense But going to pass and stay with Texas..
Last nite capped North Texas-Wisky NT is -1.5 ..wow I had Wisky as the fav by -1 .. Will continue to break down that game so hard to be objective and not let your heart get involved.
good luck today and the rest of the week . All those No 1's are gone Blue Ribbon the bible of college hoops in its top 20 have only Creighton at 11,Texas at 14,and San Diego St at 20 There top 4 teams to win were NC,Zaga,Kentucky and Duke there next Ark,Kansas UCLA Baylor Indiana,Tenn and Bama are all gone. But I have FAU to win it all .. lol go Owls and Mean green to win the NIT's Conf USA not SEC or B-12 teams
