Free Pick: West Virginia -2 (Jimmy Boyd)
Georgetown has looked unstoppable thus far in the Big East Tournament while WVU has just squeaked by. However, this will be Georgetown’s 4th game in as many days so the Mountaineers should have the big edge in terms of fresh legs. While I won’t doubt that the heart will be there, I just don’t think the Hoyas will have enough left down the stretch to get the job done. WVU is very sound defensively, and that’s a big reason why it has won its last two games against Georgetown by 17 and 13 points respectively while holding the Hoyas to an average of just 63 points in those games. Plus, the Mountaineers want this one every bit as bad as the Hoyas. Just ask star forward Da’Sean Butler. “It’s tremendous, I’ve been here a number of times. We’ve been to the semifinals pretty much every year but my freshman year,” Butler said. “… We can’t blow this opportunity. I’m looking forward to this game tomorrow really bad. West Virginia is yet to play its best ball in this tournament and yet it has continued to advance. I expect the Mountaineers to save their best game for last against a tired Georgetown team. Lay the small number.

Free Pick: Illinois +7.5 (Craig Trapp)
Too many points here for a team that has to win this game. Also OSU is not going to gain much even by winning the Big Ten tourney. Turner is the key for OSU and we are going to need huge effort by ILL to stop him. McCamey for ILL can dominate a game by both scoring and his playmaking. He will carry ILL to an upset or a near upset but either way covering the number. Enjoy!
