UNLV (+1.5) vs Kent State

[BB73]

8 vs. 9 game in the Midwest

I'm sure Kansas sees no threat for it to get to the final four

but Kent can be very dangerous... and could pull off the upset of the tourny

71-58, UNLV (final). Kent was never really in the game.

10 points in a half will do that for you.

I would like to thank that high school team for costing me 5k. They couldn't even get the ball up the court in the first half without turning it over. 10 points in one half and Ohio State doesn't make the
tournament

OMAHA, Neb. -- In a flash, UNLV knocked Kent State out of the NCAA Tournament.
The Runnin' Rebels exploited the Golden Flashes' miserable first half, tying a tournament record by holding them to just 10 points the first 20 minutes of a 71-58 victory in the first round yesterday.
The ninth-seeded Mid-American Conference champions averaged a turnover a minute the better part of the first half, went almost eight minutes without a point and trailed 31-10 at halftime.
The 10 points were the fewest since Wake Forest scored that many against Butler in 2001.
