Outkick's 2017 Sweet 16 Picks

Published•Updated

Regular readers of Outkick, Twitter followers, and listeners to the radio show and Outkick the Show on Facebook Live and Periscope know that I'm not the kind of guy who likes to brag about his success.

I tend to be humble, quiet and understated. Not the kind of guy to draw attention to himself.

Having said that.

OH MY GOD DID Y'ALL SEE THAT I WENT 33-16-1 IN THE FIRST TWO ROUNDS OF THE NCAA TOURNAMENT.

I gave you guys 50 picks that won at over a 67% rate. Combining that with the college football picks, all of you should be rich. Hell, I should be putting a ton of y'all through college right now. And not just the strippers I paid for lap dances either.

But I'm not done yet. Here comes the Sweet 16 money train, and Santa Clay is pulling into your town.

We're going 8-0 baby! (There's even a bonus pick here so there are nine actual picks). 

Purdue vs. Kansas -5.5

Michigan vs. Oregon, the over 147

West Virginia vs. Gonzaga, the over 148.5

Xavier +7.5 vs. Arizona

Florida -2 vs. Wisconsin and the under 131

South Carolina +3.5 vs. Baylor

UCLA vs. Kentucky, the under 165

Butler +7.5 vs. UNC
