Premium Pick

Vanderbilt is one of those dark horse teams that when they have it going, they can beat anyone in the country, just ask Florida. They have five players that all can shoot the three-point shot with accuracy, and when they get it going, they are impossible to defend. This may be a moment for them to get that momentum going again, and make a run here. George Washington - we just aren't sold on. They were likely lucky that Xavier got bounced from the A-10 tourney, because it is doubtful they'd be here otherwise. Taking a look at the few games they had against top competition, they fell flat, and came up short. George Washington lost to Providence, who is not even in the tournament by 19 points, Air Force by 14 (also not in tournament), Xavier by 29, USC by nine, and UMASS by seven points. They have beaten a lot of bad teams, or teams that are respectful within the A-10, but not outside it. Look for Vandy to win this one.
