There are actually quite a few I like here.

• Over 30.5 player high points — A guy like Krutwig, Moody, or Suggs can pour it on an overmatched opponent
• Over Sweet 16 MOV greater than 21.5 — there’s apt to be more than one beating this weekend, methinks.
• I like Syracuse as most likely double-digit to advance
• Sister Jean will be shown before a Loyola player dunks. This one is free money, folks. Take it, especially as an underdog on the moneyline.
• And I do like the Celebrity Nun to quote stats. She knows her bid’ness.
• If you’re feeling anti-Gump, also take her pick for the Title game. At 4 to 1, those are great odds for a Baylor/Gonzaga matchup — $25 will net you a cool bill.
• Finally, if you’re feeling a bit adventurous, here are two for you: Bet over .5 double-digits to make the Elite 8, and related to that one, I think there will just one one — but that’s enough: Syracuse over Houston. At $235 on the moneyline, and Houston’s offensive struggles against the zone this year, that one looks a’might bit tasty.
