    Liking Memphis for 3 units today

    I think Zona wins it but it will be very close. Memphis +6 (-105) Sportsbook.com.

    For any of you who know anything about Zona's history Josh Pastner was the Assistant coach for HOF legend Lute Olsen for a long time. Many thought when Lute left that Josh should have been offered the job, including myself. Memphis' guards are really coming into stride at just the right time en route to a Conference USA Championship. Pastner, one of the sport's hardest working individuals and the conference's 2010 Coach of the Year will come in with a ton of emotion and his players will play hard for him.

    I do think Memphis could win this straight up but I think the Cats' experience and grit get them by here, by the skin of their teeth. If they didn't have a coach as solid as Miller I would pick them to lose this straight up.

    Memphis and the points looks good today.

    Every time I have watched Memphis this year I see a team that does not look tournament ready.

    But good luck steve.

    I want to play Memphis +6, but I just cannot feel confident in them against a Big-6 conference...especially a team that went to the conference title game. Memphis is great at home but seems to struggle on the road, despite their stellar neutral court record.

    Idk...probably be a last second decision.

    Zonal shhould ha be about -4 to open the game but the linemaker knew Memphis was 13-1 in games decided by 5 pts or less this year so they made it 6 to keep money off Memphis looks like it worked.
