Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday.
Real_GWarner drops episode 27 on March 27th with a full breakdown of the Sweet 16, the opening Elite Eight lines, and a seven-game Major League Baseball card to close the week. The show opens 4-1-1 over the last six with a push on the Tulsa NIT game, then moves immediately into the college basketball action from Thursday night. Illinois enters as a 6.5-point favorite over Iowa with a total of 139, and GWarner's first lean is to the under, citing Iowa's preference for a slow grinding tempo against a team he describes as the tallest roster ever assembled in college basketball, a program built on a pipeline of Eastern European big men that Brad Underwood has quietly turned into a national title contender. Purdue gets 5.5 points against Arizona at a total of 152.5, and GWarner argues that Boilermaker shooting from the perimeter is an equalizer that makes them worth backing as a dog against even Arizona's thick and long front line. The MLB card runs from a Yankees-Giants getaway day game where GWarner leans to the Giants underdog and the under, through a Royals-Braves matchup with Cole Ragans against Chris Sale, a Tigers-Padres game that produces his strongest lean of the baseball portion, and a Guardians-Mariners matchup where the under at 7 in Seattle catches his eye as a solid play. GWarner is a believer in Framber Valdez as one of the better pitchers in baseball, trusting his ability to keep the ball in the yard in a park where it does not carry, and he takes the Tigers at plus money with confidence.
