Lower Front 9 Score: Jason Day or Tie / Adam Scott
Adam Scott shot a -2 (33) on the back 9 in round 1, while Day shot a -1 (34), and both shot a -1 (70) for the round. If anything, grab a coin and flip it. I personally like to take the tie option here, especially when the straight up wins the day before.

Boston College WoSDL / Miami WbDD
Miami went 15-3 in the ACC, 0-2 on neutral floors, and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. BC went 7-11 in the ACC, 1-2 on neutral floors (including their come from behind blow out of GT yesterday), and are 6-4 in their last 10 games. Please note that although BC played well in their first game in this tournament Georgia Tech is not Miami, and I doubt Olivier drops 41 on this Miami team.
The line currently sits at Miami -7.5. Miami won both meetings against BC this year, by 1 @ BC, and by 22 at home. With this on a neutral court, I see the score being lower, but closer to the latter score. Miami by 10+ easily.

Illinois WoSDL / Indiana WbDD:
Indiana went 14-4 in the Big 10, 7-3 in their last 10 games, and are 2-1 on neutral courts. The Illini went 8-10 in the Big 10, 3-1 on neutral courts (including the buzzer beater win over Minnesota yesterday), and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. I see a HUGE outing from Zeller and Oladipo in their first "playoff" game this year. There is no doubt in my mind that Indiana wants that Big 10 title. Look for Oladipo to guard Brandon Paul, and for that to be the matchup of the night. Also interested to see how Egwu guards Zeller.
The line currently favors Indiana at -9.5. Indiana is clearly the better team, but it’s worth noting they lost @ Illinois by 2 a month ago. With this game being played on a neutral floor, I see a different outcome with Indiana winning.

LSU / Florida 15+
Florida went 14-4 in SEC play, 1-1 on neutral floors, and are 6-4 in their last 10 games. LSU went 9-9 in conference play, 1-0 on neutral floors( beating Georgia yesterday), and are 6-4 in their last 10 games. The line for this game sits at -15.5, and Florida beat them by 22 @ LSU earlier in the year. I don't think this game SHOULD be very close, but due to inconsistent guard play from Florida, this could end up being a 10-12 point game. I feel the gators should pull away though so I will put my pick on them and give them the BOTD.

Lower second round score? Webb Simpson or Tie / Sergio Garcia
Simpson shot a +2 (72) in the first round, while Garcia shot an E (70). Simpson did have quite a few bogeys yesterday and I don't see him doing that again.

Butler Bulldogs @ La Salle Explorers:
Butler went 11-5 in A-10 play, 4-1 on neutral floors ( including yesterdays game), and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. La Salle went 11-5 in A-10 play, 2-0 on neutral courts, and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. La Salle defeated Butler earlier this year by a score of 54-53 @ La Salle, but Butler was without Rotnei Clarke ( their leading scorer/second leading assist man). I see Butler pulling through here with a 5-8 point victory, both teams reaching 60 points. Look for Roosevelt Jones to come up big down the stretch.

Michigan Wolverines @ Wisconson Badgers:
Michigan went 12-6 in the Big 10, 4-0 on neutral floors ( including Penn St yesterday), and are 6-4 in their last 10 games. Wisconsin went 12-6 in the Big 10, 1-1 on neutral floors, and are 7-3 in their last 10 games. The line currently sits at -3.5 for Michigan, which seems about right. Although Wisconsin beat Michigan once this year, it was at home and to force the OT in the first place their was a buzzer beater 3-PM from right past half court. With this being on a neutral floor and with Michigan really having something to prove, I see them really trying to go at the heads of this Wisconsin team. Of course Trey Burke will lead the way, but look for Mitch McGary to come up big in this one.

New Jersey Devils @ Philadelphia Flyers:
With the Devils just coming off a 5-2 victory over Philly in NJ on Monday, I think NJ can easily win this game too, though the score may be a little closer.

Syracuse Orange vs Georgetown Hoyas:
The history and rivalry alone make a great game to watch. Georgetown is easily the better team, beating Syracuse twice already this year. Once by 11 @ the Dome, and once by 22 at home, just a week ago. It’s hard to beat a team 3 times in a row, and I don’t see Syracuse shooting as dismally as they did last week at Georgetown, especially in the Garden, their home away from home.
S2thuhB’s Pick: Syracuse (Reggie)

Will’s Pick:
Who will score more points in the first half: James Southerland + CJ Fair or Tie / Otto Porter Jr + Markel Starks
Southerland/Fair average 28.6 PPG, while Porter/Starks average 28.9. With this game at the Garden, and Syracuse's ability to play huge there, I see Southerland/Fair taking this prop though it'll be a close one.
