Las Vegas - Normally, we like the revenge angle on the college hoop board, but this evening, we're going the other way. Temple went to Houston back on January 22nd, and upset the Cougars as a big PHAT 19.5 point underdog. NO ONE expected that. NO ONE! Now they run it back in Philly, and the Owls are getting a DOZEN points. Obviously, Temple (14-9) is not in Houston's (21-2) class, but they have won four in a row and have covered eight of the last 10.

Las Vegas - Everyone knows Gonzaga, but not everyone knows St. Mary's. Lemme fill you in. The Gaels live in Moraga, California, which is just about 22 miles east of San Francisco. They battle with the Zags in the West Coast Conference and at the moment, are sitting in the penthouse with a 9-0 PERFECTO! Their overall record is 20-4, with a 13-2 mark at home in the cozy McKeon Pavillon where the squeeze in only 3,500 maniacs.
