Old Dominion Upsets Notre Dame
March 18, 2010
It didn’t take long for us to see the first upset of the 2010 NCAA tournament, as Old Dominion took down Notre Dame 51-50 in the first game.

The Irish set a slow pace and even got out to a 30-22 lead before the Monarchs charged back with a 9-0 run in the second half.

2010 NCAA Tournament Predictions: Final Four
March 18, 2010
Once we get down the Final Four the teams obviously have their goal of a title just a couple games away from them. My brackethas a Final Four of: Kansas, Syracuse, West Virginia, and Baylor. I realize that Baylor is definitely the longest shot of my Final Four picks, but the reason I have them in there is I just don’t believe in anyone from the South Regional Bracket. I think Duke is a bit overrated as the third overall seed in the tournament and I think Villanova was given the #6 overall seed...

Bobby Gonzalez Fired
March 17, 2010
Seton Hall fired Bobby Gonzalez on Wednesday afternoon after the Pirates’ first round loss in the NIT. Gonzalez failed to reach the NCAA tournament in any of his four seasons at the school and compiled a record of 66-59. Last year he received a contract extension through 2015, but he rubbed a lot of people the wrong way with his fiery personality. Evidence of his hot temper could be seen with his seven technical fouls on the year. Think you can put out a perfect bracket? If so then...
Syracuse vs Vermont 2010 NCAA Tournament Lines
March 17, 2010
The 1-seed Syracuse Orange of the West Region will meet up with the 16-seed Vermont Catamounts for the second time in the NCAA Tournament since 2005. In that year, Vermont pulled off the upset. But according to the college basketball odds, that isn’t likely to happen again. The books have installed a line of Syracuse -17.5 over Vermont. Despite losing their final two games heading into the tournament, the Orange earned a 1-seed after an excellent season which saw them finished at 28-4 and 15-3...

NCAA Basketball Odds: Butler to Win It All
March 17, 2010
The team with the nation’s longest winning streak isn’t one of the No. 1 seeds, but instead a 5-seed in the Butler Bulldogs. The tough part is that they will be playing UTEP, a team that had won 16 in a row before dropping the Conference USA title game to Houston. The tough opponents and being placed in the dreaded five versus 12 pairing is one of the reasons NCAA basketball odds makers have listed Butler as just a 2.5 point favorite against the Miners in round one. Butler is 75-to-1...

The Musketeers lost to Richmond in the Semifinals of the conference tournament, but with their resume they still earned...
NCAA Expert Picks: Texas A&M
March 17, 2010
Defense is going to be the key to the Texas A&M Aggies making a run in the 2010 NCAA tournament. This team is patient on offense and waits for a solid look at the basketball, and they play tenacious defense. Even though they are a No. 5 seed, this team did tie with Baylor and Kansas State for 2nd place in the Big 12 with an 11-5 record. At 23-9 overall though, they are not getting as much respect as the other two teams. If you think the NCAA basketball odds on this team are too low, then...
