March 14 Plays

After an average day, we’re rooting for the Hoyas tonight and have these plays for tomorrow.

Mississippi State vs. Kentucky (-7.5)
Kentucky’s defense is in top form, holding a dynamic Tennessee team to 45 points in the semifinals.
The Bulldogs took the Wildcats to the limit in their one meeting at Starkville earlier this season, but Kentucky is peaking right now and State’s running into a deep, motivated team.
Take the Wildcats and Ashley Judd for 4 Units.

Georgia Tech vs. Duke (-9.5)
The Yellow Jackets have survived some close games to get to the ACC Tournament final, while Duke has handled its two games pretty easily.
Tech has the talent to hang with the Blue Devils, and if they stay committed to ball distribution and defense they’ll be able to stay in this one.
Tech topped Duke once already this season, and they’ll keep this one close in a game they need more than Duke. Take the Yellow Jackets for 4 Units.

Minnesota vs. Ohio State (-4)
The Gophers are playing for their NCAA Tournament life and looked very motivated, especially on the defensive end against Purdue and Michigan State.
The Buckeyes are lucky to be in the finals after surviving close games against Michigan and Illinois.
Look for the Gopher’s size to disrupt the Buckeyes drives to the hoop and take Minnesota for 3 Units.

Richmond vs. Temple (-3.5)
Temple’s defense has been absolutely stifling so far in the A10 Tournament, and they’ve had some relatively easy games so far.
Richmond survived an overtime game against Xavier on Saturday, and face the Owls, who they defeated by 17 last time they matched up.
Temple will be ready to get its revenge, and Richmond’s offense will be too inconsistent in this one. Take Temple for 3 Units.
