another huge game for the tigers today at home against texas. i see 2 fantastic handicappers on Texas in BB and gman...

my numbers show -7 right where it should be. someone said they thought memphis should only be -4 or 5, I dont understand that at all. i could see mem being -10. those of you that are college bball fans tune in and watch some of this one because there are 4 lottery picks playing in this one. Texas needs this game a hell of alot more than memphis. I just cant seem to go against these tigers. when two players falter and dont play well it seems 3 other guys step up to the plate and perform on any given day.

Center Cooper is a game time decision and my guess is he wont play, if he does he will get into quick foul trouble and not be a factor. Memphis has to contain Texas frontcourt. If there is a weakness for memphis that is where it is and duke exposed that weakness. like i said i show this one right at the number. Could memphis lose straight up??? I doubt it, but like i said texas NEEDS this game more than anything right now and i expect them to play that way. i have lean to the over in this game of 162 as i see a memphis victory 90-80...

Memphis -6'(hook)

Tenn did pound UT in Austin, but it was a strange day.
Buckman was out, Gibson got hurt in 1stH and never returned.
Add to the fact that Tenn was incredible from 3 in that game.

Texas is a different team with Buckman on the floor. Aldridge is not a go to guy down low.He is more of a clean up guy. Buckman is the man they like to pound it into.
When healthy this season Texas has wins over WVU and Iowa.

Trust me when I say Texas is a MUCH,MUCH better team with Buckman.
Texas has finally given up on Gibson at the point. He may start off there,but Abrams will get more minutes and slide Gibson to the 2.
This will cut down on Texas turnover issues.

Is Darius Washington playing??? ESPN was saying he maybe out.

I think this is a up and down high scoring game.
I agree with the OVER 159.
Not really sure what to say about spread. Seems right. Texas has to beat someone again to get the respect, so the line is right.
