I still don't buy that Kentucky is as good as advertised. Plus they haven't covered almost at all this year. UK will win versus overmatched Dragons, but take the points. UK wins 86-70.

Dayton struggles to score points. Appy State has hung in there versus good teams this year. The Flyers always win at home, but will not cover today. Dayton wins 60-52.

Montana Bears vs Fresno State Bulldogs in Missoula, Dahlberg Arena

Spread: 5.5

Pick: Montana Bears

Nobody beats Montana at home.  And the Bears love to cover at home as well.  Sorry Fresno, Tark the Shark is long gone and you just don't have a prayer today.  Montana wins, 83-69.

Boise State Broncos vs Portland State Broncos in Boise, Taco Bell Arena

Spread: 7

Pick: Boise State Broncos

Boise is another wonderful place to visit this time of year, except if you have to actually go there.  PSU is very bad and is even worse on the road.  Good luck Vikings, but Boise wins today.  BSU wins 85-63.

Northern Colorado Bears vs San Jose State Spartans in Greeley, Butler-Hancock Hall

Spread: 5

Pick: Northern Colorado Bears

Northern Colorado is going to win the Big Sky and is going to give someone a tough first round game in the NCAA tourney.  Until then, we will keep betting them.  Good luck getting to Greeley, Spartans.  UNCO wins today 75-68.

Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns vs Tulane Green Wave in Lafayette, Cajun Dome

Spread: 3.5

Pick: Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns

ULL is not very good this year.  But Tulane is not much better.  Its in Lafayette, so I am taking the Cajuns for the heck of it.  I may be drunk, but at least I am having fun.  Ragin' Cajuns win 68-64.

Spread: 3.5

Pick: St. John's Red Storm

In the battle of the Red's, I think the Big Red is in trouble versus the Red Storm.  Cornell has a very good team that will most likely make the tournament.  St. John's is finally playing well again and always seem to play well at their home away from home, the Garden.  Lay the short line, St. John's wins 75-68.
