Sweet 16 betting picks

Update 12AM

Well, that was rough. Win outright or lose by 25...so close Gonzaga. Safe to say Ty Lawson is back. MSU vs Kansas was a pretty damn good game. The other 3 were not very interesting at all. Tough night for me.

Tonight - 1-3, -8.9 units.

Tournament Record - 13-14, -6.5 units.

Update 9:15

Plays for tonight's late games:

Michigan State -1 WIN

Gonzaga +8 - 5 unit Bet LOSS

Gonzaga to win 2 units to win 6.5 units LOSS



Update 7:15PM Friday March 27

Syracuse +1, 2 UNIT bet

Will be back around 9PM for the late games. Liking MSU -1, Gonzaga +8.5, and Under in the Gonzaga game.



Update 6:45PM Friday March 27


I am passing on the Louisville / Arizona game. That is the early game. I am still finalizing the rest of my plays.

The only one I know for sure is Gonzaga plus points and Gonzaga straight up. The game doesn't start until 10:00PM

7:10 Arizona / Louisville PASS

7:30 Syracuse / Oklahoma - Plays coming soon

9:40 Michigan State/ Kansas - play coming later

10:00 Gonzaga / North Carolina - Gonzaga +7.5 or more and Gonzaga straight up



Update 1:00 AM Friday March 27

2-3 tonight, but up +.6 units. Lost 2 of the games by 2 points or less...Memphis was disappointing. Hit a free throw already. Most of my brackets are completely hosed now.

Updating records:

3 unit picks: 2 - 0, +6.0 units
2 unit picks: 3 - 4, -2.8 units
1 unit picks: 7 - 7, -0.7 units

Sides: 9-6
Totals: 3-5

Tournament Record 12-11, +2.5 units.

Games for the second half of the Sweet 16:

Gonzaga vs North Carolina - this was 9 on Thursday, now down to 8.5. I will be watching this one like a hawk and playing Gonzaga big tomorrow. Probably straight up too, right now at +370.

Arizona vs Louisville - meh.

Kansas vs Michigan State - Great looking match-up. Looking forward to watching the game.

Syracuse vs Oklahoma - Not very impressed with Oklahoma at all so far. Syracuse should be able to win this game.
