NCAA Conference Tournament Picks: Thursday’s NCAA Picks

March 11, 2010 by  

I’ve picked 4 good winners on Thursday. The College Hoops action just gets better and better and better and Thursday’s action should be awesome. I am representing a handful of conferences here, the ACC, Big East, SEC, and the MWC to get solid coverage all around. Enjoy the picks!

Virginia Cavaliers (+5) @ Boston College Golden Eagles: The Cavs have struggled down the stretch, no doubt, but this team is underrated, and they are very well coached. That will be the main factor as the Cavs upset the Eagles in the ACC Tournament.

Georgetown  Hoyas @ Syracuse Orange (-5.5): The Hoyas have been up and down this year, but they are fully healthy now and are going to be a tough team to send home in the NCAA Tournament. However, the Hoyas played yesterday while the Orange just watched, that’s good enough for me to take the Orange.

TCU Horned Frogs @ BYU Cougars (-16.5): The Cougars won this battle on March 6th by 30 points as the Horned Frogs lost 77-107. TCU has lost 4 of their last 5 and they’re just 13-18 on the season. The Cougars are looking to improve their overall seed, and the more convincing their wins the better chance the move up the charts.

LSU Tigers (+12) @ Tennessee Volunteers: LSU always plays Tennessee tough, and the Volunteers have been really good at playing really mediocre against “lesser teams” this season. That’s a recipe for a double digit cover if I’ve ever seen one. Since 2006, this game has either gone to overtime or finished within 6. I’ll take the dogs.
