The gambling gods were not kind last night. I thought we might get lucky and escape with the Tennessee cover, but alas fouling Carsen Edwards behind the foul line is not a recommended strategy when trying to close out a game. Then I overthought things and should have just stuck with the tried and true under in a UVA game. Either way, on to the next one as we get another slate of great games to finish out the Sweet Sixteen.
LSU Tigers vs. Michigan State Spartans
KP: Michigan State -7, O/U 151
Vegas: Michigan State -6, O/U 150
I’m surprised LSU is in this position, but it’s not because they aren’t good, but losing a coach right before the NCAA Tournament is not something easy to overcome.
