vs. 
Analysis: As predicted, Michigan State out-muscled the UConn Huskies in what some would call a beat down…and then my boys from Villy pissed it down their legs against the Tar Heels. Villanova was actually playing better defense and overall looked like the better team, but when they got down by 10 they started throwing up desperation shots instead of taking their time and setting up a play. I mean when you shoot 3 for 25 in baskets then its pretty hard to put together a W. Anyways, the stage is set and its down to the final 2 in Detriot where the Sparty’s will enjoy an obvious homecourt advantage, but they will need more than that to pull off the win. As we saw Villanova was able to exploit some weaknesses in the Tar Heels and caused alot of turnovers and when I say alot I’m talking about 12 turnovers against what some would say is the best transition team in the country in UNC. So at least Michigan State knows what they can and can’t do, while they do lake the speed of Villanova, they have a deep bench in the rotation and are every bit as tough as the Heels. So what is going to be the deciding factor? The Spartans are going to need to slow down UNC’s transitions and prevent a streak of 3 point shooting or its going to be a long day for them. With the spread as high as 7.5 points its really hard not to take them, which is my pick for this game. It’s not that Michigan State is going to win even though I hope they do, the pick is that they will cover the spread so take it before it goes down, because trust me this line is moving down and I mean fast! Also don’t forget GamblersPalace.com will be offering over 100 prop bets on the Championship game so I’m sure there is some value out there to be had.
