(NCAAB) Texas vs. Purdue,
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 Texas (Away)
Result: Loss
I don't think there's a better tournament coach around than Chris Beard. And I believe he's got Texas ready to play its best basketball here. Their team is built for March Madness with great defense and athletic guards. I like superior defensive dogs that are also ranked top 20 or better overall on my numbers. I also believe there's a coaching edge with Beard over Painter. Texas plus the points to pull the mild upset and move to the Sweet 16. on Sunday night
