The Vanderbilt-Wisconsin line was pretty much at EVEN but favoring the Commodores ever so slightly at -1. Bookmaker.eu had all the latest spreads for Saturday’s NCAA Basketball games here.
John Jenkins made all six of his late free throws and scored 27 points Thursday to help Vanderbilt hold off Harvard 79-70 in an East Regional game, otherwise known as "The Brain Bowl."
"We probably didn't feel pressure, but we understand that people were looking at us as an upset trend in recent years," Vandy senior Lance Goulbourne said. "But we play the game looking forward, not looking backward. So this is a different year."
Wisconsin, which is 8-2 Against The Spread this season in nonconference games, absolutely destroyed Montana on Thursday, winning 73-49.
All-American point guard Jordan Taylor scored 17 points, pulled down eight rebounds, dished out six assists and committed no turnovers.
"I'm just coming out trying to do anything I can to help my team win," Taylor said. "I felt like I got some open looks there, especially in the first half. It's the same for me as it is for everybody else. If you get an open look, you've just got to step in and knock it down. Just be aggressive and play confident."
