0-1 last night as St. John's was awful and still had a chance in the final minutes. They are pretty much the same team as they were last year. Up and Down.
Tonight's plays:
Alabama (+10)
I was going to go with pitt, but the line is too high here and I think Vegas is betting that the public will jump on Pitt b/c of Bama's personnel losses and high degree of underacheivement last year. That is why I take Bama.
Honestly, the talent is pretty much the same with these 2 clubs. Experience edge goes to Pitt and small edge to Gottfried in the coaching matchup.
The Crimson Tide does return 10 players from last year's roster.
St. Joseph's (+1')
Gonzaga will be a good team this year, but they are dealing with super high expectations for the first time.
I think Gonzaga will struggle defesnively against St. Joe's triumvirate of guards (Nelson, West, Carroll), especially from the outside.
