Miami +4.5 Villanova got out the round of 32 with terrific offense against an overwhelmed Iowa team. Today that should be different against a Miami Hurricanes team that matches Villanova's guard strength. Miami has four guards that defend the three-point line well and will make things difficult for a Villanova team use to thriving at the position. Grab the Hurricanes to continue to be March Madness odd success story.

Play Dallas +6.5 Dallas defeated the Trailblazers in overtime on their home floor a few nights ago and tonight they're catching 6.5. That's a head scratcher to me as the Mavericks have faced possibly the toughest schedule of any team over the last two weeks. Games against the Cavs, Warriors, OKC, etc. I think their veteran team is blossoming at the right time and will give the Blazers another good game in Portland.

Play Lakers +5.5 The Lakers grabbed us an ATS win last night and we'll look for them to repeat against the Suns. Phoenix has grabbed some ATS value after impressive performances as steep underdogs over the last three weeks. The return of Brandon Knight and boosted play of guard Devin Booker has helped. Yet it doesn't take away the fact that the Suns have a poor front line and are prone to poor defense. The Lakers aren't much better but this is a rare spot where I'll back a team playing on consecutive nights. I like the offensive fire power the Lakers have showcased and believe they can build a sustainable early lead against the Suns.

Confidence with young players such as Bobby Portis, McDermott, and others is there with consistency to spell the veteran Bulls. Tonight they should pile on a Knicks team that lacks depth and is changing over for next year.

Northern Iowa +7.5 Two veteran teams go against each other in Northern Iowa and Texas A&M. One of the problems at the tail end of January and early February for the Aggies was playing to the level of competition. Setting the tone with pace they want to play is difficult. It actually occurred in the last game against Green Bay as the Phoenix led 24-16 midway through the first half. A depth advantage wore down the Phoenix. Here that's not the case and I look for the Panthers to dictate tempo for forty minutes. Grab Northern Iowa.

Maryland -7 (Buy the Hook) All season long onlookers were wondering what's wrong with Maryland. Now we're beginning to see one of the main reasons. The Big 10 style of play just did not bode well for the Terrapins, as teams slowed the ball down. Now we're seeing the majority of those teams knocked out of the tournament besides Indiana who pushes the ball. Remaining teams left fit the style that Maryland can flourish against. Don't fall for the trap of Hawaii as Maryland should cruise in a stylistic offensive performance.

Syracuse -6 Not enough credit goes to assistants and strength and conditioning coaches. When I watch Syracuse I see a team that looks as the best physically conditioned team in the country outside of Kansas. An old adage in sports is what you saw last is not what you see tomorrow. Middle Tennessee scored at will against Michigan State and led the entire game. Syracuse is a different beast with a zone defense and an offense that goes beyond one or two scorers as in years past. Boeheim has five guys that can score in double figures on any given night including two freshman peaking in Malachi Richardson and Tyler Lydon. Balance defensively and offensively will be too much for fifteenth seed Middle Tennessee.

Oklahoma -6 VCU's turn around to their season is something their veteran players in MO Alie Cox and JeQuan Lewis can hang their hats on. Will Wade's decision to move Lewis to shooting guard a dozen games ago was truly a brilliant move. It freed up better opportunities offensively for the Rams. Yet, Oklahoma is a poor matchup for them. The Sooners are too potent of a team at all five positions which is troublesome for a gritty Rams team. Hield who has been quiet for the last couple of weeks should have a noteworthy 'March Madness signature' performance today. Grab the Sooners

Providence +11 Tonight we'll grab the Friars as Saturday's lone ATS play. Through the aftermath of all the chaos of upsets the top seeds were unscathed. All covered ATS in Kansas, Oregon, and Virginia. The lone team not to cover was North Carolina against FGCU. The veteran Tar Heels just are in a tough region. The 16th seed FGCU was not a true sixteen seed and the Friars are not a true 9 seed. Providence at one time was ranked in the top ten and feature two NBA players in Ben Bentil and Kris Dunn. Perhaps no other team featured extended role players in the second round the fed off of NBA caliber talent as strong as the Friars did against USC. I believe that continues Saturday night as the Friars have been a team that has exhibited effort for forty minutes all season long. Grab the Friars.

Cincinnati -3 I liked this point spread at 1.5 and have it as the biggest misread line of the second round. I envisioned this game more in the 5.5 range on Cincinnati's side. Yet when a team wins a conference tournament with senior talent as St. Joseph's has you're going to see value drop. But the Bearcats defense is that St. Joseph's is not accustomed to in the Atlantic 10. I may have passed on this game if the Bearcats offense was of form of year's past, but I think Cronin has recruited better on that end of the floor. Grab the Bearcats.

USC +2 Tonight we'll grab USC of the Pac-12 against Providence. The Friars are a team that has caught bettors eyes the entire season. They soared to the top top in non-conference with a win over Arizona and a 14-1 record. After a decline in conference play they caught eyes again with a road win as 14 point underdogs to Villanova. Yet, the Friars struggle to score consistently and perhaps got away with that in a Big East conference that has several teams in that same boat. One team that did not was Xavier who cruised in two wins against the Friars. USC has a similar scoring balance as the Musketeers and boast six athletes that average double figures. Look for the Trojans offense to be too much as the Friars attempt to play catch up. Grab USC.

Fresno State is not a juggernaut shooting team and relies heavily on seniors Marvelle Harris and Guerrero. While a terrific tandem that will attract ATS money, I like the camaraderie of the Utes to prevail ATS. They'll be able to win the interior/perimeter scoring battle along with trips to the free throw line.

Reason: Cleveland -9.5 Dallas did play the Cavs fairly well a month and a half ago but I don't anticipate them duplicating such efforts tonight.

Reason: St John's +6.5 Today's lone play comes with St. Johns against Marquette.

Virginia Tech +6 This is a game I expect to be played at Miami's pace but I don't believe Miami will have the offensive success they've shown recently. Virginia Tech is a confident group that has won in comeback fashion over Florida State, beat Wake Forest on the road, and handled Pittsburgh. They'll look to go into the ACC tournament on a roll. Look for the Hokies to play a much tighter game than the fifteen point loss suffered earlier this season.

Play SMU -4.5 SMU looks to bust the bubble of UConn today and I believe they will. Earlier in conference play UConn defeated SMU on their home floor with a concerted defensive effort. That's tough to match on the road at the height of level they did at home. I'm also leery of the Huskies scoring. Sterling Gibbs and Rodney Purvis are not hitting shots on a consistent enough basis while freshman guard Adams has been erratic. SMU is devalued here as a team that will not be in the post season due to a ban. Yet their offense is too dynamic against a Huskies team that will without a doubt have their lulls. Grab SMU.

The Hokies are coming off a tremendous come from behind win over Florida State and may come out flat against a team of the same caliber as them in Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons have rose their level of play as of late and should prevail past this number today.

Then a mental error by Marcus Smart drew two free throws to give the Bucks the victory. That's as mentally taxing of a loss a team can sustain and this is coming before an elongated All Star break. The Clippers on the other hand got away with a win against the hapless 76ers. But in watching that game it was not the effort. Shots just were not falling as customarily for the Clippers. They have their legs back underneath them and I expect the Clippers to come out strong and hold on for a road win against the Celtics.

UNC has a senior based team and a poor taste in their mouth from blowing a large lead in the ACC tournament last year. While the Tar Heels may have lost to the Cardinal, I was impressed with the increase on the defensive end of the floor from them.

Northern Kentucky +5.5 Out in Horizon conference play we'll grab value on Northern Kentucky against Milwaukee. Northern Kentucky we won against Milwaukee and they also did not cover at home against Oakland. The third time will be the charm against a Milwaukee team losing its luster a bit. Grab Northern Kentucky.

Auburn +10 Now is finally a time that the Tigers have ATS value. After being slaughtered throughout conference play, the Tigers get an opponent in the Bulldogs who have been up and down. Look for the Tigers upper classmen in Bowers, Harris, etc to keep them in this one.

Arizona -4 Arizona survived a scare against Washington State and now get to finish the Washington road trip against the Huskies. I see growth occurring for the Wildcats and while they may not be their typical juggernaut they'll be ready in March. Grab the Wildcats to show tenacity tonight against the Huskies.

BYU -17 We were on this game earlier this season with Pacific +9.5-10 at home. In a game that was tight throughout ballooned in quick fashion midway through the second half. Instead of seeing value on a 7 point adjustment from the first outing, I see value on the Cougars who can score and run at will against Pacific. Grab the Cougars.

Eastern Michigan +6.5 Buffalo has showed some of the holdover talent from Bobby Hurley has paid dividends, yet they've under achieved when they face solid defenses. Eastern Michigan has that and should be able to score enough in transition to stay within this spread.

Georgia State -1 Down in the Sun Belt conference the game of the day belongs to Georgia State versus UT Arlington. Of course UT Arlington has caught the flare of sports bettors with early season wins over Ohio State and company. Yet, Georgia State has the lulling defense/offense that I like in a home court setting in a smaller conference. Grab the Panthers as slight favorites.
