SWEET 16 BEST BETS: DAY 2

4 GAMES TO BECOME ELITE

NCAAM BEST BET SEASON RECORD: 54-46-3

MARCH
USA Today


4 More Best Bets, just trying not to mess it up at this point to continue a successful run



NC State @ Marquette(-7.5)

DK -112

FD -105


Marquette is just a different weight class compared to the ACC teams TTU and Oakland that NC State has run through. Marquette with Tyler Kolek play their own pace very efficiently on offense, and very rarely just get blitzed by an opposing team. Marquette is just not going to play dumb basketball. They'll play good defense without fouling and make their threes. I think the Golden Eagles are just a little too deep and little too big for NC State to truly take advantage of their size.



Gonzaga @ Purdue OVER 154.5

DK -112

FD -115


I'm just rooting for a great game. I think both of these teams play very high level basketball and don't see world where this game isn't in the 80's.



Duke @ Houston(-4.5)

DK -115

FD -106


I don't trust Duke. Jared McCain has been great but Houston weathered Wade Taylor. Houston is long, experienced, and has a couple of great guards that can take advantage of a Duke Blue Devils team that has proven incapable of counter punching against quality teams.


Creighton(ML) @ Tennessee

DK +145

FD +138


This game hinges on two things. Does Creighton also catch CAVid-19? Virginia has passed along their gross, disgusting, regressive brand of basketball along to Colorado State, Texas, and Tennessee. If Creighton is double boosted( they just don't rush into bad shots and play their game on offense which at their best can shoot anybody out of the gym), I can't see them losing to a team as offensively lacking as Tennessee. Dalton Knecht is great, but if he's not a superstar against teams with great offense, the Vols have proven vulnerable.
