NCAA Madness Picks

Bob's Barely Legal College Picks

Dayton FlyersDayton vs. Stanford under 133 (L)
Both of these teams have played several defensive battles so far in this tournament, and this one has potential to be a full blown defensive struggle. Stanford runs a nasty 2-3 zone that forces teams to settle for terrible jump shots and forced 3 pointers. I would not be surprised if the halftime score is 20-19 or something close like that. Expect a shitty, slow defensive battle as these team fight for the right to play in the elite eight.

Baylor vs. Wisconsin (-3.5) (WINNER!)
The Badgers are a crazy deep team that shoots the lights out from three. The Bears are an athletic, deep team that uses their length to deter teams from taking good shots. On paper this matchup favors the Bears, but Wisconsin is not the team that you want to take open looks for 40 minutes. The Badgers have five guys on the floor at all times that can shoot including first round pick Sam Dekker who is a versatile 3 that uses his size and shooting ability to get what he wants against opposing defenses. Look for a very deep and talented Wisconsin team to end the Bears miracle run as they move on to the Elite Eight.
