Indiana vs LA Lakers 8:30 ET

Lakers (-) over Pacers- Although the NBA’s In-Season Tournament Finals are supposed to be played at a neutral site in Las Vegas, it is more like a Lakers home game with a strongly bias crowd in attendance. To travel to Las Vegas for these games if you are in New Orleans is a hardship to attend when these games were not even scheduled and the same goes for the fans in Indiana whereas for Lakers fans it is a whole different story from Los Angeles is not uncommon for LA people to drive here. Also, Vegas virtually adopts the LA teams and it’s a short hop or drive to Las Vegas.  LeBron James showcased his all around game in the Lakers rout of New Orleans playing just 23 minutes with 30 as he ran the show with eight rebounds and nine assists and tonight it will be ‘Show Time.” Pacers are good and I really like them but...Take LA LAKERS!

BYU at Utah 7:00 ET

Utes (+) over Cougars- This battle in the Beehive State has an undefeated BYU club that is bouncing back from a mediocre season last year. They have gotten off to an 8-0 start and lead the nation in scoring margin (32.9), 3-pointers per game (12.9) and bench points (40.8). Utah is always a tough foe for anyone and is 6-2 and have won three straight games. The Utes have the pleasure of hosting the Cougars first real road game of the year and and against this rival makes it more intense than they otherwise might expect. Take UTAH!

Arkansas vs Oklahoma 4:00 ET

Razorbacks (+) over Sooners- The Oklahoma (8-0) numbers are off the charts as they have dominated their opposition winning by an average margin of 23.5 ppg while scoring 85.5 and allowing 62.0 ppg. But, you have to figure that the Sooners have yet to play a road game although they do have a pair of neutral site wins, Arkansas are aggressive and go hard to the hoop averaging 10 more free throws a game than does Oklahoma. Razorbacks hold a 17-13 series lead and will give the Sooners all that they can handle. Take ARKANSAS!

Louisville at DePaul 2:00 ET

Blue Demons over Cardinals- I know things are different for Louisville of late while DePaul still can’t play and are 1-7 having lost five in-a-row. The item that caught my attention is that the Blue Demons are favored over a school of the Cardinals stature in basketball. Louisville must really be on the skids as coaching changes and talent level is not of Final Four ability. Demons faced some tough competition falling to Texas A&M, South Carolina and Iowa State. Take DEPAUL!

Alabama at Purdue 1:30 ET

Crimson Tide (+) over Boilermakers- Last year’s National Player of the Year Zach Edey returns to his hometown of Toronto as Purdue and Alabama will go at it in the Hall of Fame Series as he was a member of Canada’s World Cup team. It looks like he might repeat the NCAA’s individual award as he is averaging 23.7 points on 63.6% shooting with 11.2 rebounds and 26 blocked shots. Both schools were No. 1 seeds last in the Final-4 last year and although the Crimson Tide have some work to do to reach that level of play but they can still hang with the big boys as evidenced  by their four wins by over 22 points. Take ALABAMA!  

Army vs. Navy 3:00 ET

Midshipmen (+) over Cadets- Navy who has been working on a new offense this season should think a little more about playing defense after what we saw their last time out. The Middies have lost 3-of-5 and it was SMU that took a 52-14 halftime lead where the Mustangs had 452 yards of offense in the 1st half alone. These guys have alternated wins and losses the past five meetings and it is Navy’s turn. Last season the Cadets managed just 178 offense and won in OT 20-17 in that game Navy completed one pass and Army was 2-of-12. Take NAVY!
