“Florida’s Shocking Edge: Why the Touchdown Favorite Faces a Texas Tech Upset in the Elite Eight”

Because they’ve been dealing with injuries all season, the Red Raiders’ backups have experience. In fact, McMillian’s backup, SG Christian Anderson, was Ken Pom’s MVP for Arkansas-Texas Tech Thursday. Mr. Anderson scored a team-high 22 points on 50.0% shooting (5-for-5 from the foul line) with 3 assists and no turnovers. 

Also, the market is penalizing the Red Raiders for pulling off a miracle to beat the Razorbacks. The NCAA tourney is “survive and advance”, and Arkansas was clearly better than its 10-seed indicated. Since Maryland closed as a +6.5 underdog vs. Florida, the market is saying Texas Tech is 1-point worse than the Terrapins. I’m calling “Bullsh*t”.
