The Big 12 cannibalism continues as Oklahoma, West Virginia and Texas Tech all lost. I think that the conference could be won at 13-5 or maybe even worse. The biggest bubble game in the last few days was SMU picking up a huge win in Wichita, which moves them into the bracket.

1: Villanova, Virginia, Duke, Purdue
2: Kansas, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Xavier
3: North Carolina, Texas Tech, Seton Hall, Clemson
4: Auburn, Cincinnati, Creighton, Michigan State
5: Arizona, TCU, Arizona State, Ohio State
6: Wichita State, Florida State, Rhode Island, Texas
7: Tennessee, Miami (FL), Gonzaga, Kentucky
8: Michigan, Louisville, Nevada, Missouri
9: Alabama, Texas A&M, Georgia, Butler
10: Arkansas, St. Mary's, Providence, Boise State
11: Marquette, Florida State, (UCLA/Notre Dame), (SMU/Baylor)
12: Western Kentucky, New Mexico State, Missouri State, East Tennessee State
13: Murray State, Northern Kentucky, Louisiana, Vermont
14: South Dakota State, Montana, Buffalo, Towson
15: Bucknell, Princeton, Iona, Stephen F. Austin
16: Florida Gulf Coast, UC Davis, (Radford/Robert Morris), (Texas Southern/Hampton)

First Four Out: LSU, Syracuse, USC, North Carolina State
Next Four Out: South Carolina, Houston, Western Kentucky, Kansas State
Also Considered: St. Bonaventure, Washington, Middle Tennessee, Virginia Tech, Minnesota, Oklahoma State, Colorado, Utah, BYU, Mississippi State, Maryland, New Mexico State, Missouri State, San Diego State, Oregon, St. John's, UCF

Moving In: Baylor, SMU
Moving Out: Houston, LSU

SEC: 9
ACC: 8
Big East: 7
Big 12: 7
Big Ten: 4
American: 3
Pac-12: 3
Mountain West: 2
West Coast: 2

Well, in the unlikely event that there is an NCAA tournament, here's my projection for it. Stanford really hurt themselves with their loss to Cal, their SOR is almost unprecedentedly bad for an at-large team. Xavier made things really interesting with a loss to DePaul, they're my last team in. Also out west, Colorado continued a massive slide with a loss to Washington State. 1:  Kansas , Baylor,  Gonzaga ,  Dayton 2: San Diego State,  Villanova,  Creighton,  Florida State 3:  Michigan State , Maryland, Duke, Seton Hall 4: Louisville,  Kentucky ,  Oregon , Ohio State 5: Wisconsin, Butler, BYU, Auburn 6: West Virginia, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois 7: Penn State, Virginia, St. Mary's,   Houston 8: Oklahoma, Arizona, Rutgers, USC 9: Marquette, Colorado, LSU, Providence 10: Florida, Indiana,  East Tennessee State , Texas Tech 11: Wichita State,  Utah State , Arizona State, (Richmond/Cincinnati) 12: (Texa...

NFL Picks: Week 1

NFL Picks Week 1: -$1810 My NFL Picks were my most popular feature last year, so I'm bringing them back for 2013. Like last year, my picks will be posted gradually during the week because I type them up on my commute. Here we go! Game 1: Baltimore @ Denver -8.5 This is the first time in a while that the defending Super Bowl champs haven't opened at home, which could play in to the Raven's psyche here. Denver is out for blood after being eliminated by the Ravens last year in the divisional round. I'm picking line value, not the spot, here so I'm going Baltimore for 2. Baltimore +8.5 (3 units) -$330 Game 2: New England @ Buffalo +10 New England has been the center of focus this offseason, between Aaron Hernandez and Tim Tebow. However, Tom Brady is still an elite quarterback, and he can make plays even with Hernandez and Gronk out. The Bills have perhaps the murkiest QB situation in the league with Manuel and Tuel. I'm tempted to lay units on New England...
