Even though the Bulldogs sit as a higher seed than the Longhorns, they still come in listed as an underdog from Vegas. This is nothing new to Butler as they are used to entering March as an overlooked team. As far as the Longhorns are concerned, the 11th seed in the Midwest region looks to avenge blowing their big lead in the Big 12 tournament and rebound from their loss to Iowa State.

Butler

The #6 seeded Bulldogs come in off an overtime loss to the Xavier Musketeers in the Big East tournament. The Bulldogs fell 67-61 in a game that saw them shoot less than 40 percent from the field.

[dfads params=’groups=63742&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Butler fell behind with less than 4 minutes to play in the overtime session and was unable to rebound as they watched the Musketeer pull away.

Leading Butler was Senior G Alex Barlow who had 22 points and 4 rebounds in the losing effort. It was the 2nd straight year Butler fell short in their first game of the Big East tournament.

Also contributing for Butler was Junior G Kellen Dunham. The 6-6 Junior dropped in 17 points and grabbed 2 rebounds in the loss. Dunham was averaging 16.7 points a game to go along with 2.6 rebounds.

[dfads params=’groups=63727&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

If Butler hopes to hold off the Longhorns, Barlow and Dunham will need to contribute similar performances.

Butler went 2-3 S.U. and 2-3 ATS in 5 neutral sight meetings this season.

Texas

The Longhorns look to avenge their buzzer beating defeat to the hands of the Iowa State Cyclones when they take the floor on Thursday afternoon. The Longhorns led by as many as 16 in the first half, only to see the Cyclones comeback and hit a shot at the buzzer to eliminate the Longhorns from Big 12 tournament play.

Texas brings in a 20-13 record, but just an 8-10 conference record. Texas finished conference play winning 3 straight in the regular season, but was unable to advance further than the quarter-finals in tournament play.

The Longhorns are led by Sophomore G Isaiah Taylor, who is scoring 13.0 points a game. The guard is also averaging 3.3 rebounds a game to go along with 4.6 assists a game.

Also leading the Longhorns is Freshman F Myles Turner. The 6-11 forward averaged 10.4 points a game and grabbed 6.4 rebounds a game.

[dfads params=’groups=64759&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

In neutral sight games this season, Texas is 3-1 S.U.

NCAA Basketball Trends:

  • Longhorns are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 Thursday games.
  • Longhorns are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games following a S.U. loss.
  • Bulldogs are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a S.U. loss.
  • Bulldogs are 42-17-1 ATS in their last 60 neutral site games.

Free 4* NCAA Basketball Pick: Butler +1.5

The Bulldogs come in listed as a lower seed, but a straight up underdog Thursday afternoon. While Texas played a more difficult schedule, Butler is a much more fundamentally sound team.

Butler 66, Texas 62

The 6 seed handles business Thursday afternoon en route to a small margin win.

Florida State Seminoles vs. Clemson Tigers Preview

On the season FSU is 16-12 ATS and they have an O/U record of 10-12 and Clemson is 13-13 ATS and they have an O/U record of 8-14.

This ACC tournament game is being held at a neutral site at Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina

[dfads params=’groups=63742&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

In their last games Florida State beat Pittsburgh 61-52 and Clemson lost to Notre Dame 81-67.

Both of these teams have 16 wins and are 8-10 in ACC play so it is a pretty safe bet to say that the loser of this game will be NIT bound. The winner may have to advance far in the conference tournament to get to the Big Dance.

Clemson looked like they would be in good shape for the NCAA tournament, but they lost 6 of their last 8 games including their last 2. FSU had lost 3 straight before winning their regular season finale facing Pittsburgh.

[dfads params=’groups=63727&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

These 2 teams met twice this season with each winning on the road.

Clemson has a decent defense and while FSU is not a high scoring team the Tigers need to rely on their D to win. They only rank 294th in the nation in points per game and Jaron Blossomgame (13.1 ppg) is the only player for them that is averaging over 9 points per game. He also leads the team in rebounding and while he had a big game facing Notre Dame going for 22 points Clemson still lost so he needs help in the scoring department.

[dfads params=’groups=64759&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

FSU has 3 players averaging in double figures led by Xavier Rathan-Mayes, who is averaging 14.4 ppg on the season.

In winning only 2 of their last 8 games both wins by Clemson came against Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech, who were the 2 worst teams in the ACC this season and each was several games under .500.

NCAAB Betting Trends

* FSU is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
* FSU is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record.
* FSU is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 neutral site games.
* Clemson is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall.
* Clemson is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record.

4* Cappers NCAAB Free Pick

In the last 4 games between these 2 teams the underdog has covered the spread every time. I am going to stick with that betting trend, as Florida State will win and advance in the ACC tournament.
