Play: Stanford -2 -105
Time: 6 p.m. ET
Reasoning: UCLA won the first meeting convincingly, but this is a home game for the Cardinal. Stanford is 9-2 ATS in Palo Alto this season and is outscoring visitors by 13.1 ppg. In the first meeting Bruins forward Tony Parker scored 22, but he's been held to under 10 in seven consecutive contests. In the last five games, the Cardinal has given up just 63.6 ppg and allowed opponents just 39.0% shooting. Stanford has the advantage on the inside with forwards Josh Huestis and Dwight Powell.
Play: SDSU +4 -106
Time: 10:05 p.m. ET
Reasoning: The Pit is a tough place to play for most, but the Aztecs have won two of the last three in that venue. The Aztecs have a suffocating defense that, in their last game, allowed Utah State just 45 points. SDSU allows just 58.2 ppg and only 31.3% on threes. I expect Aztecs guard Xavier Thames to have a big game. He scored just four points on 1-of-9 shooting in his last contest, but he's averaging 17.2 ppg.
Record: 22-12-1 (64.7%)
