Your "Bad Beat" for Saturday is on:
Marquette (moneyline minus $3) vs. Notre Dame.
The Golden Eagles jumped out to the 19-8 start to the game. Notre Dame did come back to tie it at the half but the Fighting Irish trailed 50-43 with 1:01 remaining.
That's when the luck of the Irish seemed to kick in as they ended regulation on an 8-1 run capped by Carleton Scott's three at the end to force overtime.
The Irish then opened the extra session on a 5-0 run and won the game 63-60.
Trailing by seven with a minute to go and win? Wow!!!
Your winner for Sunday is on:
3* Michigan (plus 10) at Michigan State.
A winning 1-1 Saturday as the huge 5* on Baylor came through with ease!
Just one play today and I'm fine with grabbing the points in East Lansing with the visiting Wolverines from Michigan.
Rivalry games are normally hotly contested and tight throughout, unless you're North Carolina that is. I see nothing different here today.
State is betetr overall for sure as Tom Izzo's boys were a win away from being the defending National Champions but I'm just not all that sold on them right now. The wins are still coming but the margin of victory has been fairly small more times than not. Penn State almost just won the other day as in outright in East Lansing and to get Manny Harris, DeShawn Sims and the decent enough John Beilein zone plus double digits is more than enough.
Kailin Lucas, Corey Lucious and the rest of the Spartans will be jacked up and want nothing more than to end the regular season with a W over their in-state rival. They probably will accomplish that but to win by north of around 10 ain't happening in my opinion!
