Houston +6.5 (+130) vs. Utep: 1/1.30 (Matchbook)
Only team to beat Utep this year, and it'd be in the conference's best interest to have UH win this game because Utep is a lock for the tournament. Also unsure why anyone is paying 30 cents on a 6.5-point spread.

Washington ML (+129) vs. California: 0.873/1.126 (Matchbook)
The Huskies need this one to insure a spot in the dance, while Cal is a lock. There were arguments about the Pac 10 being a one-bid league, but I think that question will end today. UDub winning will be in the best interest of the conference, as I have been playing games with that in mind all week long, but I also think these teams are a pick 'em at best so seeing this number would make me play them anyways. Both teams rely on perimeter shooting, and I think Jerome Randle needs to score 30+ to win today. I don't see that happening on a neutral court and the Dawgs will be pumped for this one.

good luck
