Saint Louis roster top to bottom looks great. They beat Richmond by around 14 or 16 @ Richmond last year. Richmond was at full strength. Saint Louis was missing a key player that was injured early last year if not mistaken (a freshman who earned Freshman player of the week twice?).

Saint Louis though has the makings of being the quintessential one and done in the tournament. Arguably the least effective free throw shooting teams in the country. Offensive efficiency over 100 with Travis Ford as coach. I think Saint Louis will probably crack the top 50 in offensive efficiency this year but that offense is not an asset when looking for a S16/E8 type team. Dayton last year had very good metrics for a Final 4 run. Saint Louis took them to OT in STL and then had the lead for a good part of the game @ Dayton. I had a 300k comeback @ 1000/1 on a Dayton title before the tournament was cancelled with 50k on the FF @ 200/1. Late August I made the play in Vegas. *Now I just hope they may have been upset in the second round by a Big 10 team.* Hopefully Dayton's strength of schedule may have been a weakness.
