MIKE'S 5* NCAA TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP GAME BEST BET The defending champions, the UConn Huskies, are the first team since North Carolina (2016, 2017) to play in back-to-back title games. They're perfect 5-0 SU in their previous five title game appearances. Both teams are perfect against the spread in the NCAA tournament this year, but I make the Huskies an even bigger favorite for this matchup than the bookmakers do. 5* PLAY ON UCONN.

The Huskies will dominate the game and control the tempo, and I expect them to make this a relatively low-scoring affair. Under is 4-0 in Huskies last 4 NCAA Tournament games. Under is 6-1 in Huskies last 7 games as a favorite of 7.0-12.5. Under is 9-4 in Crimson Tide last 13 games as an underdog of 7.0-12.5. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER.

5* CBB TOURNEY ELITE 8 GAME OF THE YEAR Both teams are coming into this NCAA Tournament West Regional final matchup off impressive upset wins against the top-two seeds in the Sweet 16, but I like the Alabama Crimson Tide to be the team to move on to the Final Four. Clemson defeated Bama 85-77 in Tuscaloosa in November, but that was part of a rough five-game losing streak for the Tide, who are in a much better position now. Bama scored 89 points on UNC last time out, and their 90.7 points per game is the best scoring average in the nation. Clemson has won as underdogs three times in the tournament, but this is where the Tigers run comes to an end. 5* PLAY ON ALABAMA.

Antelopes are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. Antelopes are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss. The Sam Houston St. Bearkats are getting too much respect after covering the spread in four straight games, and I think the market has overadjusted. In their last game, the Bearkats put a 71-46 beating on New Mexico State. Bearkats are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game. Bearkats are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. 10* play on Grand Canyon Antelopes.

CBB BIG BET ALERT - TEXAS TECH/IOWA STATE GAME OF THE WEEK The Texas Tech Red Raiders have failed to cover the spread in three of their last four games. They have played only one true road game this season, in which they failed to cover the spread. The Red Raiders are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 road games and here they'll face an Iowa State team that is looking to get back to its winning ways after losing to Baylor as an underdog on its last game. The Cyclones still covered the spread, and they are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 10* play on Iowa State Cyclones.

They're shooting 37.2% percent from three-point range (49th), and here they'll face a Southern Miss team that is allowing opponents to shoot 34.5% from behind the arc (259th). The Eagles are coming off a 74-65 loss to UL Monroe, a game where they shot 25-of-52 (48%) from the field. east Carolina has surrendered 70+ points in back-to-back games, and I think both teams will score a decent amount of points in this one. 10* play on OVER.

Mike's Top-Rated 10* CBB Total PLAY OF THE DAY The Furman Paladins are averaging 85.1 points per game and they 8-0 to the over on the season, but I think Appalachian State can slow them down. The Mountaineers held Boyce to 29 points on 17% shooting from the field in their last game, and they're allowing only 57.9 points per game on the season. The Mountaineers 64.9 possessions per game is one of the lowest marks in college basketball, indicating they are playing at an extremely slow pace, and as an underdog, I expect them to slow it down as much as possible. 10* play on UNDER.

TOP-RATED 10* NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP GAME *BEST BET* The Gonzaga Bulldogs had trouble with UCLA in their Final Four matchup while Baylor made light work of Houston last time out. As a result, the Zags are asked to cover only 4.5 points here in the NCAA Championship Game. I think the oddsmakers are overreacting to the team's most recent game. Gonzaga had destroyed everything in its path leading up to the Final Four, and perhaps they underestimated the Bruins. That won't be the case here, and I expect to see a fully focused Zags team run away with the championship. 10* play on Gonzaga.

DeJon Jarreau played 32 minutes but a hip injury is clearly bothering him. Here the Cougars will face a No. 11 Syracuse team that has opened the tourney with back-to-back wins as underdogs, beating San Diego State and West Virginia. Cuse's 2-3 zone defense can be tough to solve, and I like the Orange to keep this one close. Orange are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 NCAA Tournament games as an underdog. Orange are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 neutral site games as an underdog. 8* play on Syracuse Orange.

Both teams have had a day to rest and recover since their last game, and I think FSU's depth and shooting from behind the arc give them a solid edge in this matchup. 10* play on Florida State.

While the Rams are solid on the defensive end, they do not have the three-point shooting to keep pace with the Bonnies and they also turn the ball over far too frequently to be trusted. Rams are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog. Bonnies are 36-16-2 ATS in their last 54 games as a favorite.
