Las Vegas - 'Hoosiers' was one of my ALL TIME favorite movies and tonight, the Hoosiers are my favorite pick. After beating intrastate rival Purdue on Saturday, Indiana should be ready roll over Iowa. For a couple of reasons. The Hoosiers are MAGNIFICENT at home inside Assembly Hall with a 14-1 record and this is a big revenge game. The last time they met, the Hawkeyes squeezed past the Hoosiers at Iowa City, 91-89.

Las Vegas - Gonna circle the wagons, on the ice, and grab Buffalo over Washington. The Sabres have been rocking the party the last two weeks, winning four of the last five. The Capitals won yesterday in an emotional game against the Rangers (6-3), but that was their first win since February 11. And you also might wanna think about going Over. The last time these two met, in Washington, it was the Sabres skating away with a 5-4 victory. The Over/Under total is 6.5 and this should go high.

Las Vegas - Going to much on some blue grass and grab Kentucky over Auburn. It hasn't been the best year in the long and storied history of Coach John Calipari, but his Wildcats are starting to heat up at just the right time. They have won three in a row and are always super tough at home. Auburn is heading in the other direction, losing four of the last six, and six of the last nine. And while the Tigers are exceptional at home (13-2), they are under water on the road (4-6).

Still covering the number when Donovan Dent throws up a nothing shot from downtown for the Lobos and connects with :02 left. TWO SECONDS!
