#1 Cavs Bar
What can the Cavaliers do tonight to top their performance on Sunday? Maybe Shaq needs to break a backboard or something. After the electric performance in Sunday's 46 point 1st quarter, it is going to be tough to top it tonight at the Q versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Zach Randolph, OSU alum Mike Conley, Jr, and Rudy Gay lead the Grizzlies into dangerous waters in Cleveland tonight as the Cavaliers look to pick up their ninth straight win. Come on down to the Clevelander Bar and Grill for some burgers, beers, and whatever kind of dipping sauce you desire. Let's Get Drunk Cleveland and Go Cavs.
Love today in College Basketball. Here are some picks to entertain your fancy.
Favorites are in bold
Northwestern Wildcats vs Michigan Wolverines in Evanston, Welsh Ryan Arena
Spread: 2
Pick: Northwestern Wildcats
Northwestern is looking to get their first NCAA tourney bid, ever and need a win versus the road weary Wolverines. Plus Michigan sucks. NW wins 68-60.
Kansas State Wildcats vs Nebraska Cornhuskers in Lincoln, Bob Devaney Center
Spread: 3
Pick: Kansas State Wildcats
Dangerous territory here. I hate picking against Nebraska at home, but I do love K State. I think they recover from a tough loss to Kansas and get a good win today. KSU 65-56.
Wake Forest Demon Deacons vs Miami Hurricanes in Winston Salem, Winston-salem Entertainment Sports Complex (formerly Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum)
Spread: 7
Pick: Wake Forest Demon Deacons
Miami has been horrible on the road in the ACC. Wake's young team has come along as of late and should win this one easily. WF wins 85-62.
Kentucky Wildcats vs Ole Miss Rebels in Lexington, Rupp Arena
Spread: 10.5
Pick: Ole Miss Rebels
I must say that I have a bias against Kentucky and just don't like their team. Seems I can't pick their games since pre-conference play. UK will squeeze another one out, but close. UK 75-73.
St. Johns Red Storm vs Rutgers Scarlet Knights in Piscataway, Louis Brown Athletic Center
Spread: 3.5
Pick: St. Johns Red Storm
The only team worse than Rutgers, is Notre Dame. How Mike Brey still has a job (in the Charlie Weis era no less) is beyond me. That said after that miraculous win, Rutgers is getting way too much love. St. Johns wins easily 79-68.
Wisconsin Badgers vs Michigan State Spartans in Madison, Kohl Center
Spread: 2.5
Pick: Wisconsin Badgers
Wisconsin does not lose at home...ever. This one will be down to the wire, but the Badgers pull it out, 68-65.
And my degenerate picks of the day...
Northeastern Huskies -8 at Delaware Blue Hens
Rhode Island Rams -3.5 at LaSalle Explorers
Drake Bulldogs +4 at Bradley Braves
