The Fighting Irish have won 13 of their last 15 games and suffered only two losses over a span of nearly two months. Needless to say, the Dame is playing phenomenal basketball and they’ll come out with their best effort with a trip to the Sweet 16 on the line.

Florida State enters this game off a nice upset win over Texas A&M in the first round. Now, for an encore performance, the Seminoles will bring their No. 1-ranked field-goal percentage defense to the floor on Sunday night and try to slow down or stop a Notre Dame offense that knows how to put points on the board.

This isn’t the greatest technical spot for the ‘Noles either. According to my college basketball database, NCAA Tournament second round teams are a woeful 37-62 SU and 37-59-3 ATS provided they check in off three or more pointspread wins. If our “play against” side destroyed the Las Vegas line by seven or more last, this situation crashes to a nasty 17-39-2 ATS!

In the second round of the NCAA Tournament, teams coming off a pointspread loss have produced a reliable 73-54 ATS record provided they are matched up against an opponent that arrives off an ATS win. If our “play on side scoots in off two or more pointspread losses, this angle tightens up to a superb 48-31 ATS. Head coach Mike Brey’s troops apply to this system and the tightener.

Florida State’s victory over Texas A&M was its first NCAA Tournament victory in 13 years. Defensively, the Seminoles are strong. However, this Fighting Irish bunch is led by five seniors that don’t get rattled and know how to put points on the board. Watch the Dame play relaxed here and advance. Take Notre Dame. Thank you and best of luck, Tom Stryker. (Handicapperspicks.com)

Pick: Florida State -1
Getting the Seminoles at -1 is an absolute steal on the college hardwood. Florida State is 15-5 ATS as a road favorite of 6 points or less since 1997. The Seminoles got embarrassed in their last game on the road, losing 69-89, but this has been a great spot to jump on the Seminoles, as they are 8-1 ATS off a road loss against a conference rival over the last 3 seasons. The average score in those games was Florida State 71.6, Opponent 62.4. Florida State has also had a lot of success against the Yellow Jackets. The Seminoles have won four straight overall, and are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games at Georgia Tech. -Steve Janus

Pick: Santa Clara +6
As if seeing its 5-game winning streak come to an end isn’t enough motivation, Santa Clara’s embarrassing 84-59 loss at St. Mary’s last month should certainly fuel the fire. Under coach Keating, Santa Clara has been at its best at home when matched up against quality opponents. In fact, under Keating the Broncos are a perfect 7-0 ATS in home games, after 15-plus games into the season, versus very good teams outscoring their opponents by 8-plus points/game. They are playing these teams to a standstill with an average score of 70.9 to 70.9. Also under Keating, the Broncs are an unbeaten 6-0 ATS in home games, after 15-plus games into the season, versus good offensive teams scoring 77-plus points/game. Santa Clara is winning these games by an average score of 74.2 to 73.8. In addition, the Gaels are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a favorite and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 meetings at Santa Clara. Take the points tonight as Santa Clara takes St. Mary’s right down to the wire. -Jimmy Boyd (Handicapperspicks.com)

Tell the truth, at half time of their third game of the season when Virginia Tech was already 0-2 and trailing NC State by 10 points did you ever believe that they would be here today? Well, Frank Beamer teams always get better, they make a huge comeback against the Wolfpack and this year’s version went on to win 10 straight and went 9-1 ATS the rest of the way. Florida State under Jimbo Fisher (Bobby Who?) have also improved as the season progressed closing with an impressive wins over Miami-FL and Florida and last week. These two met in 2005 in the ACC Championship game as the Seminoles upset the Hokies who were 14-point favorites. The number is smaller but the result will be the same…take FLORIDA STATE!
