Saturday, February 9, 2008
UCF at No. 1 Memphis
The Memphis Tigers have been No. 1 in both the Associated Press and ESPN/USA Today polls for nearly a month sporting a 22-0 overall record with an 11-9-2 ATS mark and 11 overs and 11 unders.
Memphis coach John Calipari will decide later today if junior forward Robert Dozier will miss any additional games for violating team rules.
Dozier, who was caught at a nightclub early Sunday already missed a game against SMU on Wednesday and could miss the Tigers? matchup against Central Florida on Saturday.
Dozier is Memphis? third leading scorer with 10.5 ppg and leads the team in steals with 1.3 a game.
Boston College at No. 2 Duke
As per usual, Duke is not only near the top of the polls, they are at the top of the Atlantic Coast Conference as well; most recently defeating another ACC rival North Carolina in an 89-78 victory where the Blue Devils covered as a 4?-point underdog.
Duke?s conference record is unblemished sitting at a perfect 8-0 and its betting numbers are profitable as well with a 13-6-1 record ATS and an 11-9 O/U record.
Boston College isn?t doing so well sitting at 3-5 against ACC competition; 6-10 ATS and 10-6 O/U, although they are 12-9 overall.
No. 16 Marquette at No. 21 Notre Dame
The only matchup of the weekend that sees two Top 25 teams going head-to-head takes place between fellow Big East teams Marquette and Notre Dame.
The Golden Eagles and the Irish are both within striking distance for the Big East lead but in stark contrast, don?t have good betting numbers.
Marquette might be 16-5 overall but is 7-9 ATS and Notre Dame is challenging Georgetown for the conference lead with a 17-4 mark overall but the Fighting Irish are only 9-9 ATS.
Marquette handed ND a lopsided loss the last time the two met covering the 6?-point spread three times over in a 92-66 victory in mid-January.
The Irish will be looking for revenge.

Clemson at No. 3 North Carolina
The Tar Heels are probably still licking their wounds after a tough 89-78 home loss to Duke where North Carolina failed to cover as a 4?-point favorite.
Despite the crucial loss to an ACC rival, the Tar Heels remain a largely profitable team sporting a 15-5 ATS record.
The last time Clemson and North Carolina met in early January it was a nail biter with the Tar Heels snatching a 90-88 OT victory and the Tigers grabbing the pay day covering as a 5?-point underdog.
Enjoy the action.
