Just an S-curve today, as I do some quick sorting and shuffling I wanted to do. Quick observations:
- The top 5 or 6 lines are strong, very strong. There's going to be a couple teams getting squeezed into the 6 line that won't like it.
- Gonzaga's in trouble if everyone in the top 7 keeps winning
- Utah is making a push for the 2 line, but it's going to be really tough with Arizona and Kansas directly ahead of them
