Thursday the NCAA Conference Tournaments shift into full gear.  The ACC, Big Ten, and Big 12, tourneys start today with the Big East and Pac-10 continuing their brackets with round-two action.  The Big East tournament gets top billing as they have the most good teams playing today, but there are several other games to watch for.  Here’s a rundown of today’s lines and our picks for each contest:

VILLANOVA (19-11) vs. GEORGETOWN (25-4)
Line:
  Villanova vs. Georgetown -7
Over/Under:  122
Picks:  Villanova +7, UNDER 122
Nova struggled in the Big East this season, but they still won 20 games and lost several close games, including a 55-53 loss to Georgetown about a month ago.  Villanova has a lot more to play for than the Hoyas, who are already guaranteed a spot in the NCAA Tournament.

W VIRGINIA (22-9) vs. CONNECTICUT (24-7)
Line:
  West Virginia vs. UConn -1.5
Over/Under:  141
Picks: UConn -1.5, OVER 141
This is probably the best matchup of the day.  The Huskies are just slightly better, but it’s enough to pick up this win and cover that spread.

OREGON (18-12) vs. WASHINGTON ST (23-7)
Line:  Oregon vs. Washington State -3.5
Over/Under: 127
Picks:  Washington State -3.5, UNDER 127
Oregon has more motivation to win here, but they aren’t the better team.  Washington State won both regular season contests handily.

DAYTON (21-9) vs. XAVIER (26-5)
Line:  Dayton vs. Xavier -9
Over/Under:  127
Picks:  Dayton +9, UNDER 127
Dayton kept up with Xavier in their last meeting, we’re banking on a repeat performance.

AUBURN (14-15) vs. VANDERBILT (25-6)
Line:  Aubrun vs. Vanderbilt -8.5
Over/Under:  152
Picks:  Vanderbilt -8.5, UNDER 152
Vandy takes it up a notch in tournament play.
