THE LAST SUNDAY BEFORE CONFERENCE TOURNAMENTS TIP. LET'S WIN SOME BEST BETS

Vanderbilt @ Tennessee(-3.5)

DK -120

FD -120

The Commodores have not been very good in conference. The 23-7 record is a lot less impressive once you realize that they were 13-0 before starting conference play. The Vols have been playing good ball down the stretch, which already includes a win by 4 on the road in Nashville. I think the Vols win decisively and keep Vandy on their tailspin.

Arizona State @ Iowa State(-15.5)

DK -105

FD -105

The Sun Devils beating the Jayhawks and their next game being against a Cyclone team coming off two losses in a row might be the worst thing that has happened to ASU basketball in a long time. I think Iowa State beats the brakes off of ASU today and the spread is generous. I think this game ends up 70-50 in the Cyclones favor.

Florida(-6.5) @ Kentucky

DK -110

Sometimes a best bet is simple. Florida is a buzz saw. They are a cut above everybody else in the SEC and have not lost since January. Kentucky is bad by their standards and are likely to miss the dance altogether. Florida by a dillion.

UNC @ Duke UNDER 146.5

DK -110

FD -110

Duke is 13-17 to the over. UNC is 10-20 to the over. I think the over is very high, especially for a team without their best player in UNC. Give me the under.
