NCAAB: Saturday's 5:15 p.m. ET play

Play: Ohio State +9 -110

Time: 5:15 p.m. ET

TV: CBS

Reasoning: Arizona is a juggernaut, outscoring opponents by 17.9 ppg. But the Buckeyes are no slouches, and they are outscoring their opponents by 13.1 ppg. My power ratings say the Wildcats should be favored by 6.5 points. They are 4-5 ATS as single-digit favorites and Ohio State hasn't received more than 2.5 points in any game this season. Each of Arizona's three losses came against teams outside the Top 50. The Buckeyes played the tougher schedule and they are better offensively and defensively from behind the arc. They can hang with the Wildcats on the boards, have a better assist-to-turnover ratio and they record more steals and blocks.

Record: 317-239-11 (57.0%)
Bankroll: 255.00%
