Recap: Thursday's games started with a bang: Furman upset Virginia in a classic finish, while Maryland-West Virginia & Charleston-San Diego State went to the wire, as did much of Utah St-Missouri. Princeton then pulled another 15-seed shocker over tourney favorite Arizona before Penn State capped off the day's upsets in the late game. Favorites went 8-8 against the spread, the higher seed team won 12 out of 16 matchups, but 2 of those were Vegas underdog winners, as 6 Vegas dogs won outright.

Friday: Public favors the dogs today too, with only the following public favorites: Memphis, Kentucky, Creighton, and Gonzaga. Lopsided public totals include Unders in Vermont-Marquette, FAU-Memphis, Drake-Miami, Iona-Connecticut, Pitt-Iowa St., Providence-Kentucky, UCSB-Baylor, and ASU-TCU. Public likes the Over in VCU-St Marys & Pitt-Iowa St. Smart/Sharp $ bets show up on FAU, Indiana, St. Marys, Iowa St., Xavier, and TCU. Biggest Sharp/Square divide of the day is FAU-Memphis and VCU-St. Marys. Games where KenPom predicts a score 2 or more points different than Vegas includes favoring these on the odds: Grand Canyon, St. Mary's, ASU & Providence.

Enjoy the Madness!
