Point Spread: 2.50 | -107.00 Michigan (Home)
Result: Loss
On Sunday the NCAAB Side is on Michigan. Game 720 at 5:00 eastern. We are expecting a big let down here tonight from Kentucky as they will have a hard time sustaining the same level they had against bitter rival Louisville that they will against Michigan. The Big 10 has proven to be the most successful conference so far in this tournament as they have taken out the top teams from the ACC and PAC 12. Very rare that you would see a 2 seed as a dog over an 8 seed. But we have plenty of value here for a Wolverines team that has won 10 of 11. Michigan is shooting over 50% from three their last 2 games. They have faced the toughest schedule in the nation and will matchup better here vs Kentucky than they would have against a Louisville team that beat them in last seasons final when they had Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. "Guys are happy we're happy moving on and going to the next round and we're just excited to have the opportunity to go to the Final Four," said Big Ten Player of the Year Nik Stauskas after he had 14 points in Friday's win. The Wolverines are 7-1-1 ATS in their last nine NCAA Tournament games. Kentucky has failed to cover 5 of the last 7 on a neutral court when the total is 135 to 140. Michigan has won 3 of the last 4 vs SEC Teams and really let up on Tennessee in a game they could have won by double digits. Willy Cauley Stein is doubtful for the Wildcats in this game. Michigan allowed over 50% shooting from the field and has come back to win the last 5 times after playing shoddy defense. Big 10 teams are 6-1 ats in the Elite 8 round and their is a powerful system that plays against seeds seeded 8 or higher off back to back dog wins vs an opponent that did not cover that applies to this game and further supports our Michigan selection. Take the 2-3 points here with Michigan tonight.
