Torvick has SMU over Miami ... his numbers have them giving 6.4, and 86-80 win.

No Mikel Brown for Louisville. USF was already my upset pick.

Same here, had USF. That means Louisville probably wins this one.

How it goes usually. I think them and Hofstra have been the most favorable upset picks. I personally have CA Baptist over Kansas.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Lehigh-Praire View.

Lehigh has this center, Hank Alvey, who I really want.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Prairie View is impressive. Very long, active hands on D, and good at finding holes on offense for quality shots.

 

[Bammerboy321]

There's your dagger. Prairie View was impressive. Unbelievable effort.

 

[Bammerboy321]

SMU already has six rebounds.

 

[Bammerboy321]

What a backdoor cut. Complete breakdown on D by SMU though

 

[Bammerboy321]

Could be completely wrong here but Miami (OH) looks completely mismatched inside against SMU. They don't have any inside protection and they aren't handling SMU's physicality well.

 

[Bammerboy321]

And naturally SMU resorts to poor quality shots from outside lol.

 

[Bammerboy321]

My goodness just like that, Miami (OH) is up seven. That building is ready to collapse.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Their fans showed up. It is loud as hell and the team is playing off the momentum.

 

[Bammerboy321]

3-2 zone just threw SMU off.

Also we just had a commercial break. One possession and back to another commercial break. Wtf

 

[Bammerboy321]

The pace if starting to affect SMU
