Plays for Round 3. Purely situational:
2* Arizona +9 1.91: 2 to win 1.82. I like Ariz coming thru the tricky spot. They go to the Pac NW and beat Altman's Ducks.
...First two games were tailor-made for Duke. Short bus-ride to Raleigh. Duke played L8 gms in state of North Carolina and now travel.
...Dukies are so easy to back right now. I'll be looking to the Dog on the other side.
1* Purdue +8.5 1.82: 1 to win .82. Home State dog. Painter has come up short so often in the NCAAs, chance to hang tight.

Johnny, I forgot my OTHER angle. It's something we talked about:
*I'm NOT a Cooper Flagg fan. I'm not carrying the Flagg.
...The talent is there. I'm not questioning that.
...It goes back to the Messiah principle. The American media would love to christen this guy as the next Larry Bird.
...Can only get by on talent for so long. Not sure that I see the creativity and shot-making ability.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
Agree that Zona should be able to keep it under double digits against Duke.
The points with Purdue is tempting but what worries me is they had 2 cupcakes in the first 2 rounds. Houston owned a good Gonzaga team until the last 3 minutes of that game. Maybe another backdoor cover is open.

I had Zona and Purdue with upset wins on my bracket. Now that I’ve seen the games, I don’t see it happening. Houston is most vulnerable if they go into a shooting slump. I think Duke bullies Zona.Comment -
2* Alab +6.5 1.91: 2 to win 1.82
...Similar Anti-Duke theme. Going against them again.
...As good as they are, the Dukies are very pricy.
...Used to be that an SEC Non-conf Dog was worth a look in Football. Same thing now in Bask.
...SEC SOS is so tough. ACC not what it used to be.
...I like the Tide pedigree. Taking the points. Like the matchup better than Ariz, who had some weaknesses.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
I know every game went over but...Historically unders hit at a pretty good rate during this second batch of games. Do you like any totals in the remaining (FRI-SUN) games?

To your point, however, Alab and Duke each got to 100+ last game. 174 is a high total for a Regional final.
Duke, in particular, figures to struggle more against Alabama's bigs. And Duke is a very tall team, so more arms for Alab to shoot over.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
Took Pedulla, a brother of 8, and his Rebels to advance

1* Alab/Duke - UNDER 174.5 1.93: 1 to win .93
...I'm going to use Spiro's Under angle for Regional finals.
...I back-checked it. It is indeed a very good ATS angle over the L4 years.
...Each team scored 100+ last game. So, easy for people to bet Over.
...Lots of long bodies to shoot Over. Every one of Duke's rotation players is 6'5" or taller.
...And the line pumped up one point. I think we're catching a value #.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
(1-2) Tide is rolled. But stays Under. Assist to Spiro on the Total info.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
Playing both Dogs in the Final Four. At risk of getting jammed up, I think this Favorite trend is outrageous:
3* Auburn +2.5 1.91: 3 to win 2.73
3* Houston +5 1.91: 3 to win 2.73Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
Will see if Drexler and Olajuwon are in attendance. Maybe they can suit up.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment -
One other justification on these plays. I rate AUB and HOU as better defensive teams than their counter-parts.
...AUB & HOU have > 1.00 TO/Ast Def ratios.
...You don't get into your offense easily against these teams.Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?Comment
