330 pm, The Big 10 Championship game as the (650) Michigan Wolverines (31-2) barely made it as Yaxel Lendeborg hit a last-second three-pointer as time expired. This was also a game in which Michigan was favored by 12.5 points at tip-off. They will face the (649) Purdue Boilermakers (26-8), who had an easy game yesterday, beating UCLA to advance. Purdue lost to Michigan at home 80-91as the Wolverines dominated inside, holding Oscar Cluff to 4 points and 3 rebounds in 21 minutes. The guy averages 10 points and 7 rebounds. I believe Purdue giving their starters a break against UCLA, with only Braden Smith seeing 30 minutes, will be huge for this game. Throw in Michigan's big Aday Mara,7'3", who saw 31 minutes, the most minutes he has played all season, and now on a back-to-back-to-back is only going to help Purdue keep it close if not pull the stunner. Take the (649) Purdue Boilermakers plus the points.

1 pm, The (645) Vanderbilt Commodores (25-7) took the harder route for sure to get to this spot as they beat the Vols and Gators. Now they face a team that handed them their most lopsided loss of the season in the (646) Arkansas Razorbacks (24-8). The Razorbacks, like the Commodores, run everything through the guards, and both teams are red hot at the guard position. The only way the Razorbacks don't win is if their legs give out, as this team plays at a fast pace and played last night in overtime, with most starters going 40 minutes. When you have a top NBA lottery pick, if he chooses to leave school in his freshman year, Darius Acuff Jr., scoring and moving the ball as he does, you are always in every game. These are the games that coach Calipari for the Razorbacks has made his paychecks from. Take the (646) Arkansas Razorbacks plus the points

315 pm, The American Conference Championship as the (648) South Florida Bulls (24-8) face the (647) Wichita State Shockers (21-10), definitely not surprised to see these two here. Both teams won on each other's home court in the regular season, but in the second game at Wichita State, Karon Boyd was held to zero points in 38 minutes; the guy averages 10 a game, and they lost by 8 points. The public tends to win this time of year as these teams want to win. The Shockers are 7-4ats as the underdog, 8-2ats L10, and 8-4ats away. Head-to-head, Wichita has covered 3 of 5. Take the (647) Wichita State Shockers plus the points.

8 pm, as the (74) Seattle Kraken (30-26-9) built off the momentum as they won last night in Vancouver. They are a point and a half back for the second wild-card spot. They got their newest acquisition on the ice in Vancouver as Bobby McMann scored two goals for the Kraken, and now the home crowd will be going crazy for his home debut. Tough ask with the (73) Florida Panthers (33-29-3) in town. The Panthers are 3-3 in March, with the three losses all on the road. Take the (74) Seattle Kraken on the (money line)

610 pm as Matisse Thybulle returns to Philadelphia as his (569) Portland Trailblazers (32-25) face the (570) Philadelphia 76ers (36-31), the Sixers had the pleasure of playing a tanking Nets last night. Now the Trailblazers, like the 76ers, are playoff-bound, and it's moving out of the play-in games that are at stake. The 76ers have all their starters except one on the injury report. I can see them rest the rest of the players here and in Denver, as the next two are teams tanking with the Jazz and Kings. The 76ers have the homecourt, better record, and yet the spread jumped 2 points. Take the (569) Portland Trailblazers laying the points.
