The CBB Daily Dunkle – 3/17/18 (YTD 44-45)

Adding – 525 Alabama vs Villanova 1H OVER 69.5

Alabama likes to run, and Villanova has no issue running with teams that like to. Should be plenty of transition looks, fast breaks, + Alabama has a fouling issue so extra FTs for Villanova could be the case. I prefer this over the game number to avoid a potential Villanova blowout and them taking the air out of the ball in 2nd half. Villanova came out firing from downtime in the first game and I expect this to be the case here while Alabama can fire up threes as well and has a few good scorers to keep pace. I expect Alabama to push this pace, and make Villanova play a similar style thus resulting in more shots.

527 Seton Hall +4.5 vs Kansas

I think this is quite a tough 2nd round draw for an overrated Kansas team. Kansas ran away with the Big12, but the Big12 in itself wasn’t as strong as previous years. Kansas has plenty of flaws especially for a one seed and expect to see them in this match-up. Kansas has its biggest issues inside, and this is where Seton Hall is plenty good. Angel Delgado for Steon Hall should be able to have himself a day inside with little resistance from Kansas. We saw this when KU played WVU in the final. Although KU won that game, they shot over 55% from  3 sinking 15 of them to keep up with WVU’s easy looks inside. Difference here is that Seton Hall is actually good against the three where WVU was not. I really think this match plays into Seton Hall’s hands here and I’ll grab the 4.5 points with the Pirates.

533 Florida (ML)+110 vs Texas Tech

I truly believe the wrong team is favored here. I had Florida in this article two days ago, stating that this team is getting no love and it makes no sense to me. Florida has solid wins on its resume, shoots the three ball well, doesn’t turn the ball over, forces plenty of turnovers. Their starting lineup is two seniors and three juniors, so this team also carries experience. So many sharps were on Stephen F Austin vs Tech and now the line is moving away from Florida here? I’m not buying this Texas Tech team as they’ve lost so many close game to end the year. In what’s expected to be a close game, I like Florida to edge this out. Florida just stifled a bracket darling in St. Bonnies defensively and Texas Tech isn’t near as good offensively. Tech does carry much more size inside, but Florida has proven it can easily handle size by the way it mopped up Kentucky twice, Baylor, Cincinnati, and Auburn. I’m glad to get the money line here with a true live dog.
