Las Vegas - You can't teach size. These two Pac-12 rivals met in Los Angeles back in February, and USC crushed Oregon, 72-58. Looked at the box score of that game, and the Trojans absolutely WRECKED the Ducks on the glass, with a GINORMOUS 39-25 advantage. Of course revenge enters into the equation, but can't see Oregon getting past SC's size. And then there's the Mobley brothers. Evan, the freshman, the Pac-12 Player of the Year and a legit high 1st round NBA draft pick, is a load. And his older brother Isaiah ain't bad either. The Ducks had to play only one game and looked fabulous against Iowa, with a 95-80 win, but we all know that the Big Ten has been absolutely HORRIBLE in the tournament. Not the Pac-12. They're still ROCKING! Southern Cal whipped Drake 72-56 in the opener, then SMOKED Kansas, a #2 seed, 85-51. Oregon's master of Xs & Os, Dana Altman, is a superb coach and should be applauded, but remember that USC's Andy Enfield can coach a little too. He led Cinderella, Florida Gulf Coast, to the Sweet Sixteen back in 2013, when no one knew who Enfield was. Everyone knows Andy now and he should have no trouble bringing his kids to the Elite Eight on Tuesday.

Not gonna step into the Gonzaga vs. Creighton matchup because 13.5 is a little too rich for my blood. However, how about another two team 6-point teaser. Gonna take Florida State from +2.5 to +8.5 points over Michigan, and then drop Alabama from -6.5 points to minus a hook against UCLA.
