Buffalo pounding ASU
Surprisingly low spreads for some of these games.
FSU only -4.5 against Murray State and Michigan only -5.5 vs Florida.
(And in the Midwest Kentucky only -5.0 vs Wofford!)
FSU Wofford is the game I'm looking forward to most today - just promises to be great fun. Hope the Noles pull it out, but only for gambling purposes.
Wow, some major pushing and shoving underneath in the Murray St.-FSU game. Very few whistles. I generally hate it when refs do this, but I have to say, a Zion- and RJ-equipped team already is dealing with some serious whistle-swallowing, so if this is the way the tourney is going to go, I have less fear than I would in other years.
Leonard Hamilton said he thinks Ja Morante is the best player in the country.
I wonder if he really believes that . . .
Meanwhile FSU getting whatever they want, whenever they want. Hitting the three certainly helps.
The west looks brutal so far. Gonzaga, Michigan, and FSU have all been great so far. TT and Buffalo are playing well too. Whoever comes out of the region is really going to earn it.
FSU headed to the Sweet 16. Terance Mann was a man possessed this evening. He played a heck of a game.

I was curious to get a look at Ja Morant. He's not bad, kind of an Adam Morrison-light type of player but awfully small. He's listed at 6'3" and 175 but looks more like 5'11" 160, based on seeing him stand next to other players and the referees.
