Round Two.......

Dog day Saturday? After several upsets during the opening round of the tournament, I do npot expect this trend to continue. With a wide open tournament field, today's games should be closely contested.

Tennessee -8.5 over Ohio. Despite an impressive victory over Georgetown the other night, Ohio has been a subpar team all season. While Tennessee is more than capable of laying an egg, I would expect a spirited effort out of the Volunteers today.

Murray State + 4 over Butler. After getting stung by Murray State on Thursday against Vanderbilt, I will take the points in this game, expecting a nail biter.

Baylor -4.5 over Old Dominion. This pick scares me with roughly 75% of the gaming public on Baylor. However, Baylor is the superior team and should provide a difficult matchup for Old Dominion.
