Good pick with Xavier...their ability to shoot carried them well

Awesome game...2nd best I've seen this whole year (behind Michigan State-Gonzaga). Great, tough, work-for-everything game. Officiating went Illini way (the home effect) with 2nd half technical and first half cheapies that put a few key Xavier players in foul trouble. Augustine was a manimal, 40 minutes of tenaciousness.

As to bias, not really, but I can see where you might think that. I bet against the Illini as much as I bet on them ATS.

I'll probably be looking at Arkansas-Litte Rock ATS verse the Illini on Monday after the physical fatigue brought on by the Xavier game.
