College Basketball 17-20
Game 1---Arizona--Illinois----College Basketball is great--noone avoids anyone and both these teams are out to prove something. Illinois(in their last big game)--lost to Maryland--I watched this game and it seemed as if the Refs were swayed by the home crowd, calling some cheap fouls on Illinois. Arizona comes into this game playing pretty well(inspite of the loss against Kansas)--Frontcourt---Illinois has a clear advantage here, bringing 3 guys that can rebound and score--Backcourt--Although Gardner has been playing in top form, along with High School Prep (Bynum)---i believe Illinois has a clear advantage at the point-guard spot and they have guys that can shoot the 3 consisently! Yes Gardner has been playing well but i believe the more Athletic Williams will give him fits both offensively and defensively!! Homecourt--this will be Arizona's only edge---but it will not matter. Illinois is a great team--and they have all the components to winning on the road, add the fact that they lost their last big National Televised game!! They will be ready. This is my pick of the day----Final play--Give me Illinois
Game 2--Notre Dame--Indiana----Indiana lost their last game out--and ND looked great against a bad Depaul team---Notre Dame is the kind of team that can get it done on the road, they take care of the ball, shoot free-throws well, and can knock it down from 3.. But i think Indiana has a solid-team--they have a good mix of players. They also take care of the ball,shoot the 3, and biggest of all they defend well> They pressure the ball out front and they got the players inside to block and change the oppostions shot! Looking at the match-ups Indiana has a clear edge in being home---and I think Indiana has the players to frustrate Humphries(from ND)---Front-Court--I give Indiana a slight edge--Back Court---Not the kind of guys that will take over a game-but solid players that take care of the ball and find ways to score---What i mean is that they can drive--knock down the open shot, and they can go in and get a offensive rebound and give their team 2 and 3 oppurtunities.--Final play--Give me Indiana-- PRediction--Indiana 71--ND--65
Game 3---LA. Tech--Auburn--This is a game in which i will wait to see the line just before game time---If it moves in my favor--this could be a big play!!
