Tony George is here with your Sweet 16 free pick and it's on the Kentucky -8 vs Cornell game.

Oh the Cinderella story.  So Hyped in the NCAA Tourney every year, and the fairy tale ends tonight for Cornell.  Kentucky has played well, dominated in most cases, and are the #1 seed in this bracket playing a #12 seed, they should be favored 8 points.

You live by the 3 point shot, and you die by the 3 point shot.  That is a true statement.  I doubt seriously if Cornell can shoot 61% from the floor overall, 53% from beyond the arc, and 81% from the free throw line, and out rebound their opponent by 7 boards tonight like they did against an unprepared Wisconsin team  in round 2 of the tourney.

The Wildcats are big, athletic, well coached, whom we all know Calipari has tourney experince right into the title game, and Wall is one of the best players on the planet as a freshman.  Kentucky is a school that just beat an ACC team in the last round by 30 points, and never let off the throttle.  I think they can handle an Ivy Leauge school who is taking a serious step up in class tonight.  They will own the paint in this game and defend the perimeter well. 

At days end Cornell has some excellent 3 point shooters and are well coached, but TALENT wins big games, as well as experience at head coach, Kentucky by 14.
