Baylor +4

I'm going with Baylor tonight.

Baylor +4

Baylor is on a nice run of late and Texas has shown a tendency to have very close games against KenPom top 25 teams, losing 3 of 5. Baylor is #14 on KenPom and has been steadly climbing KenPom ranks.

Looking at these top 25 matchups for Texas since Jan 1st

• Texas has lost 3: #1Tennesee, #17Iowa State, #25K-State with the K-state game being at Texas.
• They've won against close games #20W. Virg (by 8 but it was a 2 pt game with 3 min left), and #15TCU (won by 4).

Virginia -5

Virginia has won 6 in a row and all 6 were by 7 points or more points. They played Syracuse at home on Jan 7th and won that game 73-66. It was actually a bigger blowout. Virginia was ahead by 20 with 11 minutes left and stopped scoring for 6 minutes. This allowed the Orangemen to get within 10.

Including the last game against Virginia, Syracuse has lost to every KenPom top 40 team. 4 losses by 4, 4, 7, & 39 points. None of those teams were as good as Virginia (except Virg itself).

Good luck Tanko

Both Baylor & Texas has screwed me this year Tank

Before the 1st of the year, Baylor lost me some money. They seemed to have recovered over the last few weeks and are playing much better.

I'm still wondering if the coaching change at Texas is going to play out with the team performance the rest of the year. They seem to have moved on from it well.

I think I might take the 4points with you

I just don't trust Texas

I'm on this game due to the surge in Baylor play of late. I think if Texas continues to play at its current level (which is good), Baylor will still stay close or win tonight.

I remember someone calling losses "variance" or something like that.
Maybe I'm experiencing variance.?.?




Not likely. Just making piss-poor picks.
