Jeff Borzello: Is it possible to even pick against Markquis Nowell at this point? Fourteen assists in round one, 27 points and big shot after big shot against Kentucky and then his record-setting performance against Michigan State. He's this year's Kemba Walker — and some of his shots against the Spartans were eerily reminiscent of Walker's key buckets during UConn's 2014 run. I think FAU will do a better job of not leaving its defenders on an island against Nowell and will be more disciplined off the ball than Michigan State was against Nowell's teammates, but it won't be enough. Kansas State has size, it has versatility, it has older guys — and it has Nowell and Keyontae Johnson. Give me the Wildcats -2.
