Utah getting a 5 seed wins my vote for the most ridiculous seeding this year. 29-8 doesn't mean much when you're beating up on the Colorado State's of the world. Arizona isn't great this year, but they have a helluva lot more talent than Utah.
I think the public will be surprised when the line for this one comes out. They will expect a 5 seed to be a pretty big fave, but I expect the line to be around a PK.

I probably phrased that wrong. I didn't mean that the public would be betting Utah, I just meant they will see the fact that it's a 5 vs. 12 and they will assume that the 5 is a much better team and should be a big fave. This happens every year at my job. People filling out the brackets know nothing at all about the teams, but they assume that if a team has a higher ranking than their opponent they are obviously the much better team.
I hope you're right about the line. I'll hit U of A pretty hard if they are getting up to 4 points.
Yeah, Nevill's incredibly uncoordinated and likes to travel a lot. I just realized I gave them 29-8 earlier, when they are actually 24-9. Not sure what I was thinking.
I just don't see how they can beat AZ. Maybe if they slow the game down enough they can take them out of their game, but I doubt that happens.
