Premium Pick

Miami is a tough, experienced team that has waited three years for everyone to be healthy, and the Hurricanes continue to be underrated even though they have won and covered their first three games of the NCAA Tournament. The Hurricanes held Iowa State to 36.8% shooting and got 27 points from Kameron McGusty in beating the Cyclones, 70-56, on Friday night. Jordan Miller added 16 points on six of six shooting for Miami, which has covered the spread by an average of 17.5 points in its last two games, and the Hurricanes have won six of their last seven outright. Kansas blew a 13-point lead before recovering to beat Providence, 66-61, but the Jayhawks didn't cover the number for the second game in a row, and they have shot only 40.2% in their last two games. Miami is 19-6-1 ATS in its last 26 games as an underdog, and Kansas is 2-5 ATS in its last seven NCAA tourney games as a favorite. Look for an outright win by the Hurricanes. Play Miami ATS and also on the moneyline for a half-unit.
