Two first round predictions

There will be predictions here during this tournament season.

Other than the Super Bowl, this is the biggest sports betting item. Please if you must bet, do so for fun and do not make money a big factor. Easier said than done, be careful.

I feel if one does predict the outcome of games as I do from time to time, it should be vs the spread or one can predict both. It is not meaningful to say huge favorite Oklahoma will beat Cal Bakersfield. Will they cover the spread?

So one prediction is Oklahoma will win big enough vs Cal Bakersfield.

The other for now, Temple, not all that far from Brooklyn, will “get there” in two ways, to the arena by bus and for their bettors, Iowa 58 Temple 55.
