Yesterday we examined Houston, Alabama, Kansas and Purdue. So today …
- UCLA (+1000): The Bruins are nasty on ‘D’ (seventh in PPG allowed), have won 13 of their last 14 and PG Tyger Campbell has played approximately 73 tourney games.
- Texas (+1100): The sizzling Longhorns have beaten Kansas twice during their five-game winning streak, and Sir’Jabari Rice drained seven 3s in Round 1 versus Colgate.
- Gonzaga (+1500): The Bulldogs lead the country in scoring and their NCAA tourney battle scars that might help.
- UConn (+1800): With Arizona returning to the desert, the Huskies join this list. They have high-end talent and high-end wins on the resume. The downside: UConn fouls …. a lot.
