NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pac-10 Tournament title is up for grabs this evening, as the top-seeded California Golden Bears face off against the third-seeded Washington Huskies in the finals at the Staples Center.

California, which won its first regular-season title in 50 years, is now out for the program's first-ever Pac-10 Tournament championship. The Bears are making their second appearance in the finals and first since losing to UCLA in 2006. Winners of six straight, Cal finds itself playing for the title after defeating eighth-seeded Oregon, 90-74, in the quarterfinals and fifth-seeded UCLA, 85-72, in the semifinal round last night.

On the flip side, the Huskies are just as hot as the Bears, having also won six consecutive decisions. Washington made its way to the finals courtesy of wins over sixth-seeded Oregon State (59-52) in the quarterfinals and seventh- seeded Stanford (79-64) in the semifinals last night. This is the first finals appearance for the Huskies since they captured their lone Pac-10 Tournament title in 2005.

As for the all-time series, California holds a slim 77-75 edge over Washington after the teams split a pair of meetings during the regular season.

Terrific free-throw shooting and outstanding defense did the trick last night, as the Huskies converted 25-of-29 attempts and held Stanford to a dismal 31.3 percent shooting effort from the field in a 79-64 triumph. Quincy Pondexter led the way with 19 points and seven rebounds, while Isaiah Thomas had 17 points. The duo combined to go a perfect 16-of-16 from the stripe. The two have also carried Washington this season, combining for nearly 37.0 ppg. Pondexter leads the squad in scoring (19.8 ppg) as well as rebounding (7.6 rpg), while Thomas checks in with 17.1 ppg and 4.1 rpg.

The Bears shot a blistering 60.0 percent from the floor and made 19-of-21 free throws en route to an 85-72 besting of UCLA last night. Jerome Randle scored 24 points and handed out six assists to lead the way, while Theo Robertson turned in a 20-point performance. The Pac-10 Player of the Year, Randle paces the Bears in both scoring (18.9 ppg) and assists (4.5 rpg) for the season and he also shoots 41.0 percent from three-point range and 93.3 percent at the foul line. Patrick Christopher, who had 16 points last night, follows with 16.1 ppg and he also collects 5.5 rpg. Robertson brings 13.7 ppg to the lineup, while Jamal Boykin adds 11.7 ppg and a team-high 6.5 rpg.
