Las Vegas - Gonna fly out West to Los Angeles and start the Sweet 16 with a tasty two team 6-point teaser. Take Arizona and drop the Wildcats down from -7 to -1 point over Clemson. Give the Tigers credit for beating New Mexico and Baylor, but 'Zona is on another level. We know the Wildcats can score, but BOY can they defend. They have the 10th best D in the country, which is why the total has gone under in the last five games, and eight of the last 10. Then we close the evening with North Carolina and take the Tar Heels from -4 to +3 points against Alabama. The Tar Heels have won 10 of the last 11, and we're not really that impressed with the Crimson Tide's wins over Charleston and Grand Canyon.

For those expecting a baseball pick, gonna wait a few days and take the temperature of all the teams before opening the wallet.
