No. 15 Oral Roberts vs. No. 7 Florida in South Region. The Gators are calling guard Tyree Appleby and forward Omar Payne game-time decisions. Appleby took an elbow to the head in Friday's win over Virginia Tech (which we called) and Payne sat for disciplinary reasons. Florida’s interior defense struggled without Payne. Even if both do play, Oral Roberts is more than capable of covering this rather big spread behind national scoring leader Max Abmas. The Gators were outplayed for much of the first round against Virginia Tech.

The Golden Eagles knocked off Ohio State and it wasn't a fluke. They shot 35.7 percent overall but committed just six turnovers thanks to their brillant point guard, Max Abmas. Now they're getting 8.5 points against Florida, which gutted out an overtime win over Virginia Tech. It's unclear if Gators third-leading scorer Tyree Appleby (11.2 ppg, 3.2 apg) will play after being knocked out Friday with an elbow to his face. Look for Oral Roberts, which has won six straight, to keep this tight if not win outright.
