not so sure

Las Vegas - FOUR & OH after the Thursday and Friday selections, so might not even tap the sportsbook apps on my phone today. Just don't have a great feel for either game. And remember, there's NO law that says you HAVE to bet on one of these games. You can just sit back, put a shrimp on the barbie and enjoy. Here's my thoughts...

Gotta take a pause in the early game between Villanova and Houston to wait and see what's up with 'Nova's star Collin Gillespie's ankle. They list him as probable, but he was rolled on Thursday night and looked to be in crazy pain. Jay Wright is not saying much, never does, but if Gillespie is not 100%, it's gonna be hard for the Wildcats to hang with this nasty-tough Houston squad. So, it's a wait & see. Wait till they start warming up and see how he looks.

Tough, real tough. Once again would love to see Coach K and the Dookies advance to the Final 4, but not thrilled about laying 4 points against an Arkansas team that is rock solid in every phase of the game. Again, you know that I have a BIAS toward Coach K and his SUPER AMAZING wife Mickie. She once drove me to my car at like 1:30 in the morning after a game, and believe me, she is GREAT! So, we wanna see the Blue Devils in New Orleans, but thinking about tickling the Razorbacks at plus four. If we do, it's a VERY light tickle, maybe 1/4 the usual wager.
