Why are we picking Vandy/UConn or Northern Illinois/Kansas rather than games with real teams?

[SlowwHand]

A lot of the first games weren't "real" games.

[Tupac Shakur]

Maybe, but at least they all had spreads (unlike Vandy-UConn).

[gjramsey]

looks like Vandy/UConn has a spread now.

I actually like picking the games with a little closer spread than last year that had almost all the top 25 teams with silly spreads of 30-50 points in the early weeks.

Well, I agree with this. Picking games with massive spreads is really difficult.

Wisky-Nebraska is tough to pick; ten points sounds exactly right to me.
