NCAA College Basketball Tournament Upsets: Louisville, Richmond?
The online gambling website BetUS.com is offering up a daring prediction for the 2010 NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament.
They are going against experts opinion that Richmond will make it deep into the tournament while also predicting that Louisville will be eliminated early.
Analysts for the BetUS.com website, which started off as a phone betting operation in 1994, have the experience and know-how to make accurate predictions, Gambling911.com believes:
#9 Louisville Cardinals: Actually, you can go ahead and replace Louisville with Cal if you want to. I mean, both of those teams have the best shot of upsetting Duke at the top half of the bracket. Forget Texas A&M. Forget Purdue. Both Cal and Louisville have the guard play, history, and coaching necessary to upset Duke and are the only two teams that can do it. If the Blue Devils get out of the 2nd Round, then they will make it to the Great Eight.
#7 Richmond Spiders: I really believe that Richmond, who lost a close game to Temple in the Atlantic-10 Championship, could have been a 6th or even 5th seed in this tournament. They're definitely better than 5th seeded Texas A&M in my opinion and are more deserving than 5th seeded Butler. Guard Kevin Anderson can play in the NBA and is one of 3 players for the Spiders who routinely scores in double-figures. The other two, David Gonzalvez and Justin Harper, could get as hot as Anderson who averages 18 points per game. If all three are hot at the same time, then the Spiders could easily make it to the Great Eight.
Richmond was getting around 75 percent of public backing while Louisville was pulling in around 65 percent.
