    Still looking over the lines (and hoping some of the hold up until I hit town Wednesday night)...but I find myself leaning towards a lot of underdogs.

    I will post up tonight!

    Mich State to take their frustrations out on Middle Tennessee State. Give the 18.

    Also Seton Hall, UConn, Northern Iowa to cover.

    Maybe Kansas and the UNDER. Leaning toward SF Austin to upset WVU

    I haven't looked at any lines yet, but I am most confident for Kansas and Virginia, think the Cincy St. Joes game will be very low scoring and I think Butler Texas Tech is a virtual coin flip

    I'm banking big on my alma mater, the University of Buffalo Bulls, to cover and possibly pull the upset of day 1!!!

    Ok here are my leans as of now - odds taken from VegasInsider's live Vegas odds screen for the Westgate. I will keep going over these on the flight out so who I play could end up changing.

    Austin Peay +26.5 (small play - Kansas is good but covering 27 is a lot)
    UConn -3.5 (as mentioned above I feel they will play well based on their momentum and Ollie is a good coach)
    South Dakota St +9
    Temple +7.5
    St Joe's +2
    UNC-Wilmington +10.5
    Northern Iowa +4.5
    Green Bay +13
    Oregon St +4.5
    Providence -2
    Chattanooga +12
    SF Austin +7.5
    Butler -4
    Little Rock +9
    Iona +7.5
    Seton Hall +1
    Fresno St +8.5
    Dayton -1.5

    Money Line's that I like

    South Dakota St +400
    Hawaii +260
    UNC-Wilmington +500
    Northern Iowa +175
    Chattanooga +600
    SF Austin +275
    Little Rock +375
    Iona +290
    Fresno St +375
