    Arizona -5 against UTEP?
    Seems really easy to take Arizona here. UTEP lost to a garbage New Mexico State team. Zona is 11-0 with 2 wins against ranked teams and a bunch of double digits wins this year.

    Agreed. My question is...is UTEP a tough place to play. I think I remember watching them at home and the place was crazy. I may be mistaken.

      utep and nmst split damn near every year. that a rivalry where they play a home and home every season. love those gms cause it generally easy money.. zona offense is garbage, they have stretches where they cant hit the broad side of a barn. utep is long and plays d so id be wary of thinking they gonna get run out of their gym.. i thought boiut utep at open but passed and now it too low for me 7 or better i think utep worth a look but i dont like how much their guards turn it over which could be a real problem as zona lives off easy baskets created by their defense...pass for me but personally think zona overrated due to the fact they at times looks pitiful attempting to run a half court offense..1st half under is actually the play im most interested in..

          to be clear the 2 ranked teams they beat were skating by a total dogshit sdst team whos offense is somehow worse than theirs at a neutral site. then they beat zags at home in a gm zags controlled all gm before pissing it away at the end.

              Liking UTEP, but feel a bit more comfortable at 7 or 8 points...think they come within a couple possessions though and keep it pretty close.

                Hardly any game has hit the level of non-play that this game has. UTEP has a shot here but I still think Arizona wins. By how much, god that's a great question to keep debating. Arizona has been playing great basketball and beat some solid teams but UTEP actually matches up well and that sold out arena is going to be getting wild.

                I HATE picking which team covers this though.

                Only thing I like is the over 61.5 1st half and the over 132 game. Either of those plays look like the playable options.

                  Fellas I can't wait to see my utep miners. I'm home from Louisiana for the holidays drove 14 hours to see this game. I've got no wager on it I'm just gonna enjoy but I hope utep beats them. You can't even hear yourself think when it's sold out its ridiculous how loud it gets. I'm pumped for tonight! !!!

                                  Come on already. It was one ****** up call from being the other way. Utep scores 55 all game, bit dude drills a miracle 3 towards the end. Everyone lucks out backdoor sometimes

                                    and zona scored 60. not sure why you think you should have gotten a cover in a gm you had no business covering? utep outplayed them for a large portion of the gm and would have won if best player wasnt on the bench the last 9 minutes..

                                      Their best player was 8 for 18 with 5 tos. I want that best player on the court. He commits 2 more turnovers and hit one more basket. Doesn't change the fact the foul call was phantom. As in it did not exist.

                                          pretty much from after the initial run by zona all the way until hunter fouled out. miller even said after the gm they lose if hunter is able to stay in the gm.. keep telling yourself you were on the right side and got screwed tho.
