Today's Free Play (2)
812 La.-Lafayette -3.0 (-110) BetOnline vs 811 EvansvilleAnalysis: The Rajin Cajuns are a tough matchup for any team in CBB to be honest....Ul Laf will eat up Evansville on the boards in this one..Across the board Ul Laf is far superior..They are playing the best basketball of the season and i see no reason they don;t win and cover this game...This team is very good and Evansiville i think is short in to many areas here..Rebounds, PPG, FG%, turnovers, steals, blocks, all favor UL-laf...I'm not a big fan of Evansiville size..I had them in a few games this year and they can't battle down low with tough defensive guys..They need to shoot the ball very well in this game to keep this one close...I just don't see that happening her for the Aces tonight....Rajin Cajuns now come back home to the home crowd after two road wins Vs. two teams i think are better than Evansville as well...I think this is a step up in class here for the Aces....UL- laf will limit Balentine or Mockevicius and leave it to one player to beat them..I doubt it happens here..Cajuns roll.
804 Kentucky -13.5 (-110) Hilton vs 803 W.VirginiaAnalysis: I'm going to use a little bit of a approach in this game..I watched both teams in the round of 32..One can argue that WV actually played a better game that day...Kentucky even thought they took care of business Vs. Cincy, they looked like they plated B- /B+ basketball and it was still enough to get them a win...You can even say that the game against Hampton was a B+ effort and result as well...It's time for Kentucky to shine as they come down the stretch...Sure i'm big Bob Huggins fan and i root for WV for some reason every year...WV this year is a quality club to be honest... Most worry about this full court press that WV is famous for...Take a look at the type of teams WV has struggled with....Length and Guard strength...The Mountaineers failed all 3 times this year with Baylor, twice with Iowa St, Kansas,Oklahoma, Lsu, and Texas...Teams that fit what i just said to a certain extent..Now your bringing in the most round of that criteria in Kentucky...Kentucky has two monsters underneath that will expose any team..This is a fact....Also, note the Kentucky just in fact may bring the A-/A+ game here...That worries me for the WV backers...If this press for WV fails to execute the game plan and generate points off turnovers with this press, it can and will fustrate this team..You have to think Coack Calipari will have this all figured out..He has been arounda long time..Now WV can defend the entire floor, but it will be limited past the half court..Kentucky had a poor shooting effort last game out. I highly doubt that continues...WV also likes to pick up fouls and that i guarantee will extend the lead in this one..Kentucky is way to athletic inside and out..They all shoot great from the free throw line as well..(except those two misses in the Cincy game)..cough--cough....Staten is a good guard and Williams can be a handful as well..My gut feeling is Kentucky will force WV further out from the basket and that's not a good thing for the Mountaineers..They are the weakest shooting team left in the big dance..Pushing the big guys out will only clutter up the outside here for WV..Kentucky can play great defense as well...I don;t believe WV will have great success in this game..Fouls will hurt W and Kentucky will keep extending this lead..The Sweet 16 round more often then not brings good teams to produce great efforts..Most in part because these 1 and 2 seeds are on high alert...Kentucky is the class of the field this year..It's plain as day on paper and to the eye test...Sure some of the teams have quality teams, but in a punch for punch game, Kentucky is far superior...This line is set rather high and money has come in on the Wildcats..I actually agree here..I'm not a fan of laying chalk like this, but i feel it is warranted....Kentucky will bring it's best game and i think they will scare the field after this one..Kentucky at this 13.5 number...has covered this number 11 out of the last 12 games..I like the odds here against a poor shooting team..Give me the Wildcats in a big convincing and statement like win.
