The seeds have been out for 6 hours and on every board everyone is saying how Manhattan is going to beat Fla. Yes, it may happen but if everyone is so focused on this game I can see Fla blowing them out and some other team coming out of nowhere to get to the sweet 16. I've seen two people pick Manhattan to go to the final four. Besides losing at Cuse this year (which I think is very overrated and will probably lose to BYU) they haven't played any competition. I guess I'm looking for MAC bettors that watch this team closely throughout the year. All I hear is Flores this and Flores that...Fla has a kid named Roberson, Walsh, and Lee and they are all pretty good.
Utah st.? Big deal.The team is nothing.The conference is well balanced with Cal st. North Ridge a .500 record taking Utah st. and Pacific to the wire.
Manhattan went on the road to Wisc. Milk and got the job done gate to wire.They have 4 seniors and experience in the NCAA tourney.
They can and will play with the big girls or boys.
The game to shift to and get the money is East Tenn. st. over a weak Cincy team.East Tenn st is full of seniors and experience.They fell a little short last year to Wake Forrest in the 1st round.They only lost 1 conference game to Charleston.Other than that, they rolled and put the points on the board all year long.the boys will be pumped this trip around to make up for last years early fall.
Western michigan will make noise to in their 1st game as I like them too....

When I first saw this match on the selection show I was thinking Manhatten would be a solid pick if they got a 9 or 10 pt spread, but 5.5???
I'll be on Florida in this game. Florida is a young talented team with a chip on it's shoulder. They beat a hot Alabama team and rolled over a good but tired Vandy team in the SEC Tourney before being outplayed and outclassed again by Kentucky.
I look for them to definitely cover this number, but Wake Forest will beat them in the second round.
Western Michingan has a great chance to beat Vandy.

Matt Walsh of Florida is ? for this game. He took painkilling shots before the last 2 SEC tourney games. He has a foot problem that saw him tear the sole completely away from the ball of his foot. Florida is beat up from playing 3 games in a 39 hour time frame and now have to play on thrusday. LT
