I've really enjoyed following Louisiana forward Jordan Brown as he's been a double-double machine coming down the stretch of the season, but this is a bad matchup for the Cajuns and its star. Running the offense through your big man with 3-point shooting not really being a part of the gameplan is going to get eaten alive by Tennessee's defense. Louisiana shoots the 3 at a respectable clip (36.6%) but ranks outside the top 300 both in how frequently they attempt 3's and how much made 3's factor into their offensive production.

Death, taxes, and fading Rick Barnes in March. Rick Barnes is 19-31-1 ATS in the NCAA Tournament in his career, including 2-6 ATS with the Volunteers. The Volunteers have also been bad in the 2nd half of the season. After starting 19-4, the Vols have lost six of their last 10 games. The Volunteers will be without their best player Zakai Zeigler who injured his knee on February 28th. On the other side, the Ragin' Cajuns have won five straight games and their offense has looked amazing. Love getting double-digits here. Take the points and fade Rick Barnes.
