Time to turn it around. I'm not a system player but will do my best to provide explanations for my picks when I have time. GL to everyone this season.

UWM Panthers -6 (-110), 1 unit: Panthers could have just "played out the string" last year knowing they were not postseason eligible. Instead they battled the whole year and finished strong. Most of the team comes back and with the postseason back on the table I think they come out focused against a very inexperienced Pioneers squad on a neutral floor.
Marquette Golden Eagles -5 (-110), 1 unit: If you read my posts (not sure why you would do that) you know I often find reasons to back the Bruins of Belmont. However, the Golden Eagles have a few things going for them: First, they are under the radar after last season's performance. However, they have a stud freshman in Ellenson and a good transfer in Fisher. Second, they took an overseas tour so this team has had more practice and game time than Belmont. Third, Wojo has them believing they can be a tournament team this year and even though it is the first game of the year, this would be a quality win when Selection Sunday rolls around.
Montana Grizzlies +5 (-105), 1 unit: Most of the Grizzlies return from a team that everyone thought would be a disaster last year. Instead they competed the whole year and exceeded expectations. Dimic is a stud for the Broncos but they're going to struggle to replace the scoring of Marks. Missoula is not the place you want to try and figure that out.
