Wichita State Shockers (2, 138.5) vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Both teams are facing distractions for this one as Coach Marshall has been offered 3 Million dollars to go to Alabama, while Mike Brey has been dealing with the passing of his mother.
Matt feels this is a tough one to handicap. He wouldn't be worried about a letdown for Wichita state after their huge win over Kansas as this is a veteran team that will be ready to play and they feel they have unfinished business with Kentucky after getting bounced by the Cats last year. Notre Dame has been less than impressive so far in the Tourney and while they still are shooting good they have been crushed on the boards in the 2 games and they are just 110 ATS in their last 11 games overall. Matt would lean Wichita State here.
Dave wonders if Wichita State will be physical enough to beat the Irish. Dave feels that Kentucky is, but Wichita State may not be. Dave has also been impressed with how well the Irish did in the ACC this year and if he mad the line he would have the Irish favored by 1.
