It’s Sunday and we need a winner. We need something that’s going to get us pumped to go into the week and be the best version of ourselves. We also need something that will motivate us to start looking at the Sweet 16 lines. These bets aren’t going to make themselves so we need to get to work. The best way I know how to accomplish what we need to do today is by hitting a parlay. Hitting a parlay today will definitely send us into this week with a pep in our step. It will also keep us locked in for the Sweet 16 round. It’s really the only thing we absolutely have to do today. Lucky for us, I already took care of a little +258 banger. Feels right.

March Madness Sunday Parlay Leg #1 – Maryland Is Not a Joke

The round of 32 is all about finding an undervalued team. Only the best teams in the nation are left at this point so it makes sense that one or two could be much better than we originally thought. It’s happened before and it’s going to happen a million more times.

One team that could easily fit this description is the Maryland Terrapins. The Crab Five might actually be legit.

Grand Canyon was a popular upset pick in the first round and Maryland just destroyed them. It was tough to watch by the end of that thing (unless you were a Maryland fan). There was a lot to talk about but for me, the biggest takeaway from that game was the fact that five different Terrapins scored double-digit points. One other guy had nine so he was right there too.

That’s going to be a problem for Colorado State. They haven’t seen anything like that this season. On top of that, Maryland’s defense could easily be the best in the country. Colorado State gets by on really good shooting but that might not be in the cards tonight. This game won’t be close.

March Madness Sunday Parlay Leg #2 – Michigan State Wins By Double-Digits

Maryland isn’t the only underrated team left in this tournament. Another one is the Michigan State Spartans. Not only are they gifted on the floor, but they’ve also got a legendary coach roaming their sidelines.

So even with the unknowns of a tournament like this, we know one thing for sure, Tom Izzo will have the Spartans ready for Sunday night.

People don’t realize how good the Bryant Bulldogs were this season. They were big, they were fast and they had multiple guys who could score the rock. Still, Michigan State disposed of them with no problem in the first round. They legit won by 20 in the second half alone.

Tonight, the Spartans will see another team that likes to fly up and down the court in New Mexico. The haters are going to say that the Lobos have beaten multiple tournament teams this season but whatever. They haven’t seen Michigan State. The closest they’ve seen is St. John’s and they got slaughtered that night. We can expect more of the same tonight. This game won’t be close.
