Getting Caught Up In the Madness

Today is one of the best sporting days of the year. There's so many great games and so many games that mean the world to these teams in conferences such as the MEAC, the SWAC, the MAC and more. Today's the day where teams live to fight another day or pack up the balls for the season. Today outside of this coming Thursday and Friday is unequivocally the best day of the college basketball season. Obviously I've been away for the last couple days so I'll update how I would've done in my high school and college picks.

45-16 in Group I games
52-10 in Group II games
43-19 in Group III games
46-16 in Group IV games
18-7 in Non-Public A games
19-4 in Non-Public B games
223-72 overall

Now onto the real challenge of figuring out how well I did with my college picks over the plethora of games over the last 3 days.

6-1 America East
5-5 Atlantic Coast(Up to Semis)
4-3 Atlantic Sun
7-3 Atlantic 10(Up to Semis)
8-7 Big East
2-3 Big Sky
4-3 Big South

Now onto my last 4 picks of the Conference Tournament season as well as my predictions for the Group Finals tomorrow.

Atlantic Coast Championship
#1 Duke over #7 Georgia Tech

Atlantic 10 Championship
#1 Temple over #3 Richmond

Big Ten Championship
#6 Minnesota over #1 Ohio State

Southeastern Conference Championship
#E1 Kentucky over #W1 Mississi State

Here are my high school picks for tomorrow.

Group I Championship(Spreads According to Born Power Index)
#1 University-6 over #1 Woodbury

Group II Championship
#3 Shabazz-18.5 over #8 Pequannock

Group III Championship
#1 Kingsway-6 over #1 Mendham

Group IV Championship
#1 Cherokee+7 over #1 Plainfield

Non-Public A Championship
#3 St. Peter's Prep-9.5 over #1 Camden Catholic

So there's all my picks for the 9 games going on today. If you're in New Jersey, I definitely recommend coming to the RAC for the state championships today. It should be a great day of ball. You could stay for the groups I and IV Championship games then head over to the Ritacco Center in Toms River for the 8PM tip off between St. Peter's and Camden Catholic for the A title after it was postponed yesterday.

My two games of the day in high school are:
#1 Cherokee vs. #1 Plainfield in the Group IV Championship Game at Noon at the Rutgers Athletic Center
#3 St. Peter's Prep vs. #1 Camden Catholic in the Non-Public A Championship Game at 8PM at the Ritacco Center

Over in college, the top 2 games are easy for me to pick today. Just keep it locked into CBS for the entire day lol.
#1 Temple vs. #3 Richmond in the Atlantic 10 Championship Game at 1PM
#1 Ohio State vs. #6 Minnesota in the Big 10 Championship Game at 3:30 PM followed by the NCAA Selection Show on CBS.

I hope you enjoyed reading my daily previews and predictions on all these games and I will break down each region of the bracket starting tomorrow night through Wednesday night giving sleepers, favorites and more predictions before going game through game on Thursday before the tournament begins. The madness is finally here.
