No. 11 UCLA vs. No. 2 Alabama in East Region. The Tide were my pick to win the East Region and I'm sticking with that. The Bruins are playing great, but Bama can stick SEC Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year Herb Jones on red-hot Johnny Juzang if need be.

The Pac-12 is 9-1 SU and ATS in the tournament, but it should be noted that UCLA's three opponents combined to shoot 13 of 54 from 3-point range. Alabama put up 96 points against a tough Maryland defense and is back at full strength. The Crimson Tide have scored 80 or more four times in their eight-game win streak. They also feature the nation's third-best defense. Lay the points.
