Oklahoma at Oklahoma State
The Sooners should come into today's game with a lot of confidence after beating Baylor (91-51) on Saturday. The 40-point margin was the ninth largest in the history of Big 12 league games. OU's three conference wins have come by an average of 27 points. A big reason for the explosion has been the play of senior Nate Carter. Prior to Big 12 play, Carter averaged 4.4 points and 2.3 rebounds, but has raised that to an impressive 17.4 points and 7.8 rebounds in the team's five league games. In addition, senior Michael Neal has been lights out from three-point range and comes in shooting 55.6 percent (15-for-27) over the last four games. The Cowboys are 11-0 at home this year, but have dropped two of their last three, including an 18-point loss at Texas A&M on Saturday. The Sooners look like a good underdog pick (+5 1/2) in this one according to Dunkel, which has Oklahoma favored straight up by 3 1/2. Dunkel Pick: Oklahoma (+5 1/2). Here are all of today's games.

Thanks Guys! Have a great day!

[Udog]

You, too, kb!!!
Man, the Sooners and the Cowboys should be one helluva game tonight!

You, too, kb!!!
Man, the Sooners and the Cowboys should be one helluva game tonight!

Unfortunately, I think the Cowboys get back on track tonight at home and show the Sooners they're not as good as that 40 point victory they had Saturday.

[Udog]

I'm afraid you're right. OSU has been off the beam for a couple of games but, their team is loaded and the intensity of the rivalry factor, tonight, could be just what they need.

Chicago at Indiana
Indiana's new acquisitions couldn't keep the Pacers from stretching their season-high four-game losing streak in New York on Saturday. Mike Dunleavy had 14 points and Troy Murphy had 10 points and 11 rebounds, but the defense once again was a problem in a 108-106 loss to the Knicks. During the four-game slide Indiana has allowed an average of 108.0 points. The Bulls come in having won four of the last five matchups with the Pacers. Chicago is looking to bounce back from a 95-85 loss to Utah in which the Bulls shot only 38.2 percent from the field. Against an Indiana team still trying to find its new chemistry, the Bulls look like a good underdog pick (+1 1/2) according to Dunkel, which has Chicago favored straight up by 6 1/2. Dunkel Pick: Chicago (+1 1/2). Here are all of today's games.
