Chalk's college basketball experts are back with their best bets for all of Saturday's eight NCAA tournament matchups. Tuley: I went 3-1 (75 percent) with my best bets in our NCAA tournament betting guide, thanks to winning my over/under plays with the Miami (FL)/Buffalo over and the Virginia-Hampton under while splitting my best spread plays with a win on UNC Wilmington +10.5 against Duke but losing Texas Tech +3 against Butler. Unfortunately, I didn't do as well with some other plays like Colorado and Fresno State that I gave out on our videos. We'll try to take what we learned from watching all the games on Thursday to attack the betting lines in Saturday's games. And if you're looking for more analysis, be sure to check out PickCenter, which has projections on every NCAA tournament game, and the Chalk home page.
ATS picks for every gameNote: Picks marked with an asterisk (*) are best bets.   No. 9 Connecticut Huskies vs. No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks (-8)
Current total: 139
PickCenter consensus pick: 59 percent pick Kansas to cover
BPI: Kansas has 86.0 percent chance of winning Lange: Kansas made easy work of Austin Peay on Thursday, winning 105-79 and getting the cover on the closing line of -24.5. We were able to cash our bet on the Jayhawks -15 for the first half. No Jayhawks player saw more than 27 minutes of action. UConn didn't shoot the ball particularly well in its 74-67 win over Colorado, hitting less than 40 percent from the floor. The Huskies' saving grace was a stellar 22-of-23 effort from the charity stripe.
