Las Vegas - Color me Orange and wake me early. Gonna roll with Syracuse over Virginia. 'Cuse was rocking yesterday against NC State, smothering the Wolfpack, 89-68. And the star of the show was Jim's kid, Buddy Boeheim. Little Buddy dropped 27 points on State and hit 50% (6/12) from downtown. Obviously, Virginia has a WAY better D than NC State, but the Orange have really started to hummmm. They have a sweet little three game hat trick working and will be looking to avenge an earlier loss to the Cavaliers, a really UGLY 81-58 disaster.

Looking at the Big East, we have another St. John's vs. Seton Hall matchup, and we're all over the Red Storm. These two played last week and St. John's posted an 81-71 victory, WITHOUT their best player, Posh Alexander. Looks like Posh is gonna be back for this afternoon's game, and that's good news. The Hall has been on a downward spiral, losing four in a row straight up, and on an OH & SIX run against the spread. Gonna drop these games into a two team 6-point teaser. So, the Orange +12 and the Storm +8.5. BOOK IT!
