Final Four Saturday

Final Four Saturday

1. Butler (-3.5) vs VCU
Wow, great game. The spread has increased from 2.5 to 3.5 in the last few days. All the sharps are declaring that Butler will win and cover the spread. Butler has the experience and the size, but so has every team that VCU has played during the tournament. VCU has no business in the tourney let alone this far in the tourney. The Money line is VCU +150. I am real tempted to take VCU +150, because I think that this game could go either way. Both teams rely on three pointers and tough defense. Take VCU +3.5 to be safe or take the money line.
2. Kentucky (-2) vs UCONN
The Wildcats have carried over their dominance from the SEC tournament into the NCAA tourney. UCONN is playing great ball as well. The Huskies won the Big East tourney then beat SDSU and Arizona in Anaheim, CA. It will come down to Kemba Walker's supporting cast--he will need someone to step up and help him with the scoring. I think that the Wildcats athleticism will triumph in the end in a close game. Go with Kentucky!!
