YESTERDAY'S RECAP

It was a wild Saturday of College Basketball, as we saw two tickets punched to the Big Dance and we have four more auto-bids up for grabs today. Jay has you covered with his picks in every conference tournament game along with a couple of Best Bets. Bobby enters today's action on a 25-12 (68%) run and has a play in the Big South Championship game. We have a total of 5 Best Bets today, including Michigan State vs. Michigan.

Bobby came through with his NBA Best Bet on Saturday night and has now won five in a row. Jay came up short with his play and will look to bounce back with a Best Bet in today's Celtics vs. Cavaliers game. We have our free picks in all 10 games on today's schedule, including two Best Bets.
