BIG TEN GAME OF THE WEEK! Love Indiana in this spot as they were just 3 point dogs to Purdue who most would make the case they are the best team in the Big Ten. Michigan is also coming off their biggest win of the season blowing out their rival Michigan St so they are in a classic let down spot. I expect Indiana to bounce back here. The Hoosiers haven't forgot about the 30 point blowout @ Michigan but that was when Indiana was extremely banged up.

I will back the red hot Trojans here at home who have won 5 straight and 6 of 7. A win here tonight by the Trojans would have them just one game back of Oregon for 2nd place in the PAC 12. I fee like this is a difficult spot as well with Oregon coming off a heart breaker @ UCLA in a game they did control for 70%. USC on the other hand has had this one circled wanting revenge from earlier this season. USC shot a miserable 31% form the field that game you can expect that to change here tonight

It's very rare this late in the season you can get 6 points with a team on their home court that has a record of 14-1. Kansas was only favored by 2.5 @ Kansas St who is worse than Tech.

We are getting a discount here with UCLA due to Oregon's recent stretch of play. The Ducks are coming off an impressive blowout win over Arizona. In the first meeting here UCLA was favored by 1 @ Oregon and it took a last second shot at the buzzer for the Ducks to win. So with that line this one should be closer to 8. However the betting public has cooled off on UCLA since they have only covered 3 of their last 10 games. I see the Bruins getting big time revenge here

This is a statement game for Duke plain and simple. If they are truly trying to turn around their season it starts tonight.

They were blown out @ Miami recently, lost at Georgia Tech, barely won @ Clemson, Wake and BC. Those teams are all in the bottom of this league so that is very concerning even this is a short trip and obviously the biggest rivalry in college bball.

NBA PLAY OF THE DAY! Really like the Celtics here tonight as they are catching the Raptors on a back to back situation. Also the Celtics have dropped both games to the Raptors this year including one at home already so they definitely have that in their head here. Also the Raptors aren't playing very well as they were lucky to beat the Pelicans last night, they are just 2-6 SU their last 8 games. Boston is 7-3 SU their last 10 including 4 in a row. Celtics take care of business

BIG 12 Game Of The Year! I love Iowa St here tonight on their home floor. This to me is do or die for the Cyclones tonight. They have games @ Kansas and @ Texas next. With coming off a bad loss @ Vandy and a loss here tonight they would nearly be eliminated from the tournament. I actually feel that West Virginia and their pressing style will play right into the hands of Iowa St. The Cyclones have one of the best PG's in the country in Morris who takes care of the ball. This press won't rattle them and I believe that will create a lot of easy shots. I still think West Virginia is being over valued with their win over Kansas, prior to that game they lost to Oklahoma @ home and @ Kansas St who is no where near as talented as Iowa St.
