Andy Katz was 9-4 with his college basketball predictions last week to bring his overall record to 50-29. This week, he is back with a loaded slate of games.
You can read Katz’s picks below and listen to him make them on this week’s episode of the March Madness 365 podcast. Western Kentucky’s Charles Bassey, UCLA guard Chris Smith and Dan Leibowitz, former assistant to Temple’s legendary coach Jon Chaney, also join the show.

Texas will have its full team back, including head coach Shaka Smart who was quarantined due to COVID-19 protocols, but Katz still likes Baylor to remain undefeated on the road.
