Free March Madness Bracket Picks - December 26, 2007
On Sunday we went 2-0. Today we have a pick in the lone game on the board.
Today's NCAA Basketball Picks:
Game: Morehead State at Louisville (7:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Louisville -23 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)
It has been an injury plagued start for Louisville. Throw in a suspension, and this team has really struggled to find an identity. That could be bad news for Morehead State because this is a frustrated team. The Cardinal have Iona on deck, so there is no look-ahead possible. We look for Louisville to take out their frustrations on Morehead in this one. Morehead State has been brutal when challenged by a top BCS conference school over the last five years. They have already dropped a decision to Oklahoma this year by 32. Each year they take on a top program or two, and each year they get humiliated. The last seven games vs this type of team have seen them lose by 32 (Oklahoma), 34 (Texas Tech), 68 (Connecticut), 31 (Kentucky),26 (Ohio St.), 64 (Louisville) and 25 (Notre Dame). This may seem like a lot of points, but vs this type of competition, Moorehead has never covered this line. In fact, they have lost by an average of 40 points per game! We certainly don't expect to see anything different here.

Miami Ohio is a team that likes to limit possessions. Games vs. top teams in Louisville, Xavier and USC were all played in the 40s and 50s. Illinois isn't interested in up-tempo either, and this i...

This is a young Wake team that is going to take its lumps in the ACC this year, and may very well finish at the bottom. Williams and Hale were expected to carry the load, but both are barely averaging...
