Kansas Jayhawks vs. Kentucky Wildcats

The 2011-12 national champions will be crowned on the college hardwood
Monday night when the #2 Kansas Jayhawks (32-6, 19-17-1 ATS) and #1 Kentucky
Wildcats (37-2. 15-22-1 ATS) collide against one another in the
Mercedes-Benz Superdome for the second time this season; tune to CBS at 9:23
ET to take this one in live!

The Jayhawks are simply playing with house money right now as they head into
the title game of the 2012 tourney. Not much was expected of Head Coach Bill
Self's kids this season, as it was expected to be a rebuilding year in
Lawrence after so much talent from last year's team bolted for the NBA.
Still, Kansas went out and won the Big 12 regular season title for the
eighth straight season, and parlayed that into this exceptional run in the
NCAA tournament. They survived a scare in the second round against what
turned out to be a game Purdue squad, and then took care of both Carolina
schools (NCST/UNC) to head back to the Final 4 for the 14th time in the
program's history and first since they won it all back in 2008. KU struggled
mightily throughout the first half with Ohio State, but Coach Self once
again proved just how tremendous an in-game coach he is by making necessary
adjustments that had the Buckeyes off kilter throughout the final 20 minutes
of play. When it was said and done, Kansas pulled out the 64-62 outright win
and punched its ticket to the title game for the sixth overall time; KU's
8-4 SU & 5-7 ATS on neutral courts (1-2 ATS as underdogs).

You can't help but be taken aback by the young talent on Head Coach John
Calipari's 2011-12 Kentucky outfit. This team has only been defeated twice
over the course of the 39 games they've played heading into the program's
first trip to the title game since 1998, and they've looked nothing short of
dominating in their five games played in the Big Dance. Though they failed
to cover the hefty check in the opening round match-up with in-state rival
Western Kentucky, the Wildcats ripped apart an Iowa State team in the Round
of 32 and then took care of Indiana before toppling Baylor in the Elite 8.
That moved them to a perfect 3-0 SU & ATS versus the Big 12 this season.
Getting the best of the hated in-state rival Louisville Cardinals was the
cherry on top of their impressive season long performance, but there's still
work to be done with Calipari who's still in search of that elusive first
title. If ever he was to get it, it would be with this team that heads into
Monday night's title game owners of the country's 15th most potent offense
(77.6 PPG) and #1 ranked field goal percentage defense (37.4%); KY's 10-1 SU
& 5-6 ATS on neutral courts - all as favorites.

These teams have split each of their L/6 meetings outright dating back to
1998, but Kansas holds the 4-2 advantage versus the closing number; the
'under' cashed in four of those contests. Kentucky won and covered these
team's first meeting this season back in November at Madison Square Garden
where they tallied the 75-65 win in the State Farm Champions Classic. The
teams were tied at the break (28-28), but the Wildcats wore the Jayhawks
down in the second half to pull out the SU & ATS wins. Kansas is 2-3 SU &
2-2-1 ATS the L/5 times it went off the board dogged by six points or less,
but are 7-2 ATS its L/9 vs. the SEC. Kentucky is 3-2 SU & ATS the L/5 times
it was favored by six or less points, but stands a bankroll bursting 3-12-1
ATS its L/16 non-conference tussles.

Pick: Kansas/Kentucky Under 137

4 UNIT PLAY

Kentucky -6 over Kansas: Ive been with Kentucky for much of this tourney and I won't stop now. They are the better team that is loaded with next-level talent throughout the lineup - even on the bench. The Cats have pretty much rolled through the tourney so far and even though they won by just 8 over Louisville in their last game, it was a game that wasn't as close as the final would indicate. The Cats were in total control for much of that game and even though the Cardinals made a run you never felt that Kentucky was gonna lose it. This team gets a ton of credit for their offense and it should as they have averaged 77.6 ppg on 49% shooting overall, including 84.2 ppg on 53.7% shooting in the tourney, but this defense also deserves some credit. The Cats have allowed 71.6 ppg on 41.6 % shooting in the tourney, but for the year this team has allowed 60.6 ppg on just 37.4% shooting, which is tops in the Nation. Tonight they take on a Kansas team that has played great defense in the tourney, allowing 59.2 ppg, but a team that has struggled on offense in the 5 games so far. For the year the Jayhawks have averaged 73.9 ppg on 47.5% shooting, but in the tourney they have put up just 66.4 ppg on 41.4 % shooting. I do not thinks that's going to get it done vs this Kentucky team that can score in bunches and they will tonight. I don't feel the Jayhawks will have enough defense or nearly enough offense to keep this one close. The Cats are focused and should have no problems tonight with an easy DD win here

SPORTS WAGERS

NHL

TAMPA BAY +115 over Washington Pinnacle
Washington is coming of a 3-2 OT win at home Saturday night over the Montreal Canadiens. Woo hoo! Washington blew a 2-0 lead, were outshot 41-33 and once again proved they are not to be feared. The Capitals have still lost five of their past nine games during the most crucial stretch of the season. As it stands right now, the Caps are two points up on the Sabres for the final playoff spot and they can decide their own fate with just three games remaining. A win by the Caps here puts them four points up and really solidifies their position. For a Lightning squad whose season ends this week, this becomes something for them to focus upon. They know what’s at stake for the Capitals and they’ll give it everything they have in an attempt to make life difficult for this hated division rival. Washington has bailed like that Italian cruise ship captain every time they’ve had an opportunity to put a stranglehold on that final playoff spot. Against Buffalo last week they lost 5-1. In a huge game just prior to that one, they lost to the Jets for the second time in a week. The Capitals might get in to the post-season but not because of their strong play. They’ll get in because the Jets and Sabres couldn’t close it out either and that’s not the type of club we want to be laying road juice with. Play: Tampa Bay +115 (Risking 2 units).

Kentucky -6 over Kansas Pinnacle
There is little doubt that the Wildcats are the best team in the country. They have several future NBA lottery picks on the roster and they’ve shown how dominant they can be in every game of this event. Kansas is obviously talented as well, just not to Kentucky’s level. The Jayhawks are sound, rarely beating themselves. With that said, we know that Kentucky is capable of blowing out Kansas, just like Ohio State was on the verge of doing. The Buckeyes don’t have the killer instinct that the Wildcats have. The Jayhawks are not capable of blowing out Kentucky. In that regard, we would much rather have our money riding on the superior team with the lead than the Jayhawks attempting to claw their way back in. It’s been said many times over that basketball is a game of matchups. In this instance, it’s about a team that is not going to be stopped by an inferior opponent on the biggest college basketball stage there is. Kentucky will win this game and more than likely by a comfortable margin for the majority of this final. Play: Kentucky -6 (Risking 2.1 units to win 2).

CHAMPIONSHIP MONDAY :

KANSAS +6.5
KANSAS-KENTUCKY OVER 137

Saturdays plays were profitable once again, as i went 3-1(not including fh&ml plays) in hitting both sides and split the totals.
Now looking at the big game, ANYONE, and i mean anyone including a high school drop out or a homeless man for that matter can make a case for KENTUCKY, ya there great, athletic, and can name the score on most with there great players and all the blah, blah, blah, you want we heard all before, no doubt KANSAS is definately lucky to get here, but the important thing is regardless of how they got to the final is they did, and they got here with determination, and yes a little luck, when the going got tough they found a way to win, and that is what championship teams do. Entering the season and with the loss of some big key players, Kansas wasnt even on the map to make it this far. But yet again here they are playing for all the marbles. again cross out all the X'S and O's, because non of that matters leading up to a championship game, whatever happened in madison sq garden in way back in november has no relevance to what tonight is all about. The sportsbooks set the opening line at -6.5 and the public perception is "give me kentucky". Folks sometimes things just arn't as easy as it looks , and i say this from experience, but when a team that squeeks by and wins game after game, in the playoffs, and yet they are a dog in a championship game, mentally speaking it gives them the extra motivation. DAVID vs GOLIATH maybe but its still BILL SELF vs JOHN CALIPARI. I really like KANSAS in this spot again, the pressure is on kentucky in trying to deliver Calipari his first national title, perhaps it might happen, but im saying it wont. TAKE KANSAS +6.5. TAKE OVER 137 - this is strictly a play on the fact that i dont think both teams will be shooting 24% from the beyond the arc, both teams have guys in the middle that will have a huge effect on the overall inside points. i see plenty of fouls in this one too,so look for both teams to be in double bonus a lot earlier than expected, specially if Joe Derosa is reffing this one and also one never knows with overtime a possibility, because i think this game will be the total opposite of the snooze fest boring game we had last year.
FINAL SCORE : KANSAS 73-70
