Featured Play: Tennessee + 7.5 (4x)

The Tennessee Volunteers vs the Pitt Panthers is the Featured play today. Tennessee took down Villanova. Villanova and Pitt have a lot of similarities. They both have great guards and are not as strong at C and PF. Tennessee’s Tobias Harris will give Pitt match up problems. As long as Hopson and Goins can keep Wanamaker and Gibbs around there averages, I see the Volunteers covering the spread.

Other Plays:

Washington -1 (3x)

The Washington Huskies come in as the highest scoring team in the NCAA, averaging 95.5 points a game. Texas A&M’s one quality win was a 54 to 51 win over Temple. The Huskies will score and win this game.

Detroit Titans -6 (3x)

Detroit is just too talented to not cover the -6 spread. Ray McCallum, Chase Simon and Eli Holman will get the job done vs the 1 and 7 Eagles.

Atlanta Hawks -3.5 (3x)

We are going with the home team here. The Pacers have not won in Atlanta since 2006 and have struggled on the road all year. The Hawks are averaging 109.3 ppg and shooting a ridiculous 50.3% at home.

Miami Heat -9 (4x)

The Heat have won 7 games in a row and have been winning by double digit points in each of those wins. Miami has won 12 of the past 13 meetings against Sacramento. The Kings have been terrible all year and star point guard, Tyreke Evans has been battling an injury all season. Take the Heat.

Kentucky Wildcats -7 1st Half (3x)

Dayton Flyers +11.5 (4x)

Duke -8 2nd Half (2x)
