At long last, the Sweet Sixteen arrives Thursday so here are our picks for Thursday’s and Friday’s games.
Thursday:
- Gonzaga vs. Arkansas. Arkansas is just the type of team that gives Gonzaga fits. But Drew Timme and Chet Holmgren have proven to be a tough duo.
- Michigan vs. Villanova. At this point, coaching, defense and guard play are where you should put your money. So we’ll take Villanova.
- Texas Tech vs. Duke. As we often say, we don’t bet against Duke. Not starting now.
- Houston vs. Arizona.
