Saturday Selection
50 Dime Play: Texas Tech
Line as of 9:45 AM Eastern: Texas Tech -3 1/2 to -4 1/2
Special Instructions: With the line fluctuating a full point it is critical you do some price shopping.
Just when Texas was in a nice groove, starting center Cameron Ridley (12.7 points, 10 rebounds, 37 blocks) broke his foot. In the first game without their big man, the Longhorns used more three-guard and smaller lineups against U.Conn at home but still fell to the Huskies on Tuesday, 71-66, as a 2-point chalk.
Ridley being out is strike # 1 for Texas.
# 2 is the fact this is only the Longhorns' second true road game of the season.
# 3 is the fact Texas Tech is playing in triple revenge.
This has been a one-sided series as the Longhorns have won nine of the past 10 meetings, including the last three. But the Red Raiders, winners of nine in a row, are playing with confidence and now seek validation and payback simultaneously.
Tech was picked to be a cellar dweller in the Big 12 in preseason polls, but Tubby Smith's team has won nine in a row since losing its second game of the season to Utah. The Red Raiders have a top-10 RPI and have already beaten Minnesota and Miss State in tournament play in Puerto Rico in addition to handing Arkansas-Little Rock its first loss of the season.
The Red Raiders drilled Richmond in their last game, beating the Spiders by 15 in Lubbock. They play strong defense (foes shoot just 38%) and they're offense is much improved from a year ago (76.3 ppg vs. 69). They also have plenty of motivation with the Longhorns coming to town.Comment

75 Dime winner is Penn State plus the points against Georgia. At 10:05 pm eastern time on Friday night, the Nittany Lions are +6 point underdogs in Vegas and offshore. I suggest buying the half point up on Penn State if your price is +6 1/2 or +7 points.Comment
