I have a variety of opinions for you on tonight’s Houston-Florida championship game (8:50 p.m. ET, CBS).
>Greg “Hoops” Peterson picked Florida in the VSiN March Mania Betting Guide and he is sticking with the Gators. He has a play on the total as well.
>The chalky nature of this year’s tournament made it rough for Dave “Dog or Pass” Tuley, but Houston could make everything right.
>Steve Makinen has filed his Analytics report for the championship game. And his predicted score on our matchup page would suggest the wrong team is favored.
>Tyler Shoemaker has generated a prediction based on his T-Shoe Index.
ICYMI: Adam Burke’s game analysis.
Coming later this morning: Josh Appelbaum’s Sharp Report.
As I mentioned in yesterday’s email, Follow The Money host Mitch Moss has a $15,000 futures bet on Florida at +725 (worth $108,750), courtesy of the free roll he earned in the Derek Stevens/Mike Palm Bracket Buster.
I checked in with Mitch to see how his hedging strrategy is going and he responded: Wheels are in motion!
