2-Unit Play. Take #822 Connecticut (-10) over Houston (1 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 28)
I like the Huskies here. This line opened at 9.0 and has done nothing bug sky higher. This Houston team has been very strong at home but has been up and down on the road against the top teams in the league. They lost by more than 10 points at Tulsa and at Cincinnati already this year and this one could be another blowout.
2-Unit Play. Take #847 USC (+8) over California (8 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 28)
I like the underdog here. This is a rivalry game and these teams will play a close one tonight. USC has not been good on the road this season in Pac-12 play. But I think that they are due for a strong road effort and I think they can win this game outright. USC is 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games against the Golden Bears. And USC is coming off its worst game of the year in a 20-point blowout loss at Stanford. They will turn it around quickly and this is too many points.
2-Unit Play. Take #842 Nevada (-3.5) over Colorado State (5 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 28)
I know that Nevada is going to be without Marqueze Coleman for this game. But this team has a lot of options on offense. They already overcame the loss of their top big man, A.J. West, when he left the team earlier in the year. I think they will be OK. The books know Coleman isn't playing and they are still favored. That tells me a lot. Colorado State is not a good road team at all and I like the Wolfpack to close the regular season with a victory here.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAY
4 Unit Play. Take #842 Nevada -3.5 over Colorado St (5:00p.m., Sunday February 28)
These two Mountain West teams did battle earlier in the month in Colorado and the home team Rams won that game 76-67 but tonight I see revenge. Since that loss the Wolf Pack of Nevada have won 4 out of 5 games and that one loss was on the road at UNLV and in overtime. Nevada is 10-2 in their 12 home games this year and the home cooking will give the Wolf Pack a home win. Colorado St is 0-5 ATS in their last 5 Sunday games and the Wolf Pack are 8-2 ATS in Conference play and Nevada is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 home games.Comment

(3% play) MEMPHIS +2 (vs. Tulsa) - 4:00 pm ET (ESPN-U) #838
Tulsa is a good team, and the Golden Hurricane come into today’s game at Memphis with a solid 19-9 SU record. Tulsa is 6-4 SU in true road games this season, but their wins have come against inferior competition like Missouri State, East Carolina, Tulane, and Central Florida. All four of those teams are terrible, so winning on the road against those schools is unimpressive. Tulsa has been unable to win on the road against capable teams; they lost by 19 points at Cincinnati, 15 points at Houston, and by 4 points at Temple. In their three road losses listed above, the Golden Hurricane gave up 80 points per game. Overall, Tulsa’s defense is allowing 71.2 points per game on the road this season. Tulsa will be playing their fourth road game over their last six games, and with the final home game for seven seniors on deck, this game is one they can easily be overlooking.
Memphis is having a mediocre season as the Tigers come into this game with a 15-13 SU record. However, they are off back-to-back losses with their last being a 69-62 home loss to SMU. There’s no shame in losing to the Mustangs, and off that loss, we expect a peak performance this afternoon, especially since this will be the last home game for two starting seniors who average a combined 26.6 points per game. Memphis is 13-6 SU at home where they are holding opponents to just 64.9 points per game on 37.2% shooting from the field and 29.4% shooting from three-point land. We expect a big bounce back game by Memphis here, so we’ll back the Tigers as a home underdog on Sunday afternoon.
Play MEMPHIS (+) as a 3% play.

No official NBA play, but I do have an opinion below.
(1% opinion) INDIANA -4.5 (vs. Portland) - 6:05 pm ET #808
Portland has been playing terrific basketball recently; the Trail Blazers are 7-1 SU over their last eight games. However, five of those games have come on their home court. Portland just embarked on a 6-game road trip which started off with a 103-95 win in Chicago last night. That was a phony win as Portland shot just 43.7% (38-87) from the field and 23.8% (5-21) from three-point land. The Trail Blazers won that game at the free throw line as they held a +12 point differential (22-10) and a +15 attempts differential (27-12) over the Bulls.
Indiana has lost two of their last three games with their last being a last-second 96-95 home loss to Charlotte. The Pacers are in a good bounce back now, especially since they are 18-10 SU on their home court this season. But my concern with the Pacers is the fact they haven’t been winning games by margin lately. Over their last seven games, Indiana is 0-7 ATS based on tonight’s posted line as all four of their wins have come by 3 points or less. Still, Indiana is in a great situational spot for a bounce back win on Sunday night, even though the line is a bit high.Comment

The Fez | CBB Sides - Sunday, Feb 28 2016 12:30PM
#820 Seton Hall 2.0(-110) Greek vs #819 Xavier, Ohio single-dime bet
Analysis: Tremendous spot for the Hall to win it all today, as the Xmen just come off their game of the year win vs. Nova......
It won't be easy but look for Xavier to crash and burn off their big ga šme win, flying East vs. a team that needs this game BAD to lock up their tourney bid.

The FEZ | NBA Total - Sunday, Feb 28 2016 6:05PM
#807 POR / #808 IND UNDER 209.0 Pinnacle single-dime bet
Analysis: We got to this one a bit late, but it's a good one
1st Half UNDER 105 1 star
GAME UNDER 209 1 star.
Inflated NBA totals based on hyper scoring since the break. However, this is less an impact for teams still in contention for the playoffs and seeding.
Port plays higher scoring at home, Indy Ÿ on the road. Both teams higher scoring 2nd halves.
I actually like the 1h a bit better, but let's play both.
