Beloved sports handicapper Matt Rivers of OffshoreInsiders.com has William and Mary plus the points as he continues his domination of March Madness picks.
I can't say that I fully trust the Tribe on the road but to get such a healthy amount of points with a much improved program against a terrible North Carolina team, relatively speaking, is enough to give this a go.
Tony Shaver has a team that earlier in the season beat Maryland, Richmond and Wake Forest. Then in conference they downed teams like VCU once, Hofstra, Northeastern and Drexel twice among others. Sure things should not come easy in Chapel Hill as the Tar Heels still have some talent with Thompson, Ginyard, Zeller and others but UNC has pounded nobody at all in months and just should not all of a sudden regain their National Championship form today.
David Schneider and the visitors went 12-6 in-conference and 22-10 overall and advanced to the Colonial finals. Old Dominion was too good and outclassed Bill and Mary but the Tribe, even in a mediocre game, still managed to cover the contest in the end.
The Heels dropped 12 of their final 16 games and the season just can't end soon enough for Roy Williams and his team, which has been through the ringer. UNC even dropped five of their last seven at the Dean Dome and even if it doesn't become six of eight I don't see a resounding victory that can come near covering this semi substantial number.
Bill and Mary had a great season and will fight today in another program building game.
The pick: William & Mary +8.5.
For more information: My highest rated 500,000* improved to 46-22 all-time on Sunday after the Yellow Jackets covered the number. 10 of 14 winning days and a 20-9-1 overall run. Also a cool 3.55 million* of profit now over the last 19 days alone and that includes losing on the Pistons badly yesterday. That's short-term profit and long-term profit.
8-0 college run over the weekend. Can you say 11-0 after today? I'm nailing my sixth straight 500,000* on an NIT Dog that may win outright plus a 200,000* pup along with a 100,000* pup. Click now to purchase
