Inner Circle
Michigan (+1) over Iowa
8:00 PM (EST) -- Crisler Center
Inner Circle--Michigan PK The Iowa Hawkeyes have fallen off the basketball charts. It''s been a total free-fall for a team that was a good as any team in the country. After getting as high as No. 4 in the AP poll and looking to be a lock for the Big Ten title, the Hawkeyes have fallen apart, losing four of their last five. Without much offense, their hands will be full and their shots tested on the road at Michigan. And Michigan does not allow but 63.3 points per game in the Crisler Center. Michigan should dominate on defense and out score them comfortably on offense. Michigan is ranked #14 in the nation with their 3-point shots. That is huge with this home game. There''s are few answers to explain Iowa''s slump and fixing it today will be a daunting task for the road team. Michigan gets their revenge tonight and readies itself for the Big 10 tournament.

Pinnacle
USC (+1½) over Oregon
1:00 PM (EST) -- Galen Center
Pinnacle--USC + ***Pac 12 Game of Year USC is at home where they are almost unbeatable with a 17-2 home record. The Trojans are scoring 81 PPG on offense while shooting 46% from the floor as a team. There''s a tremendous amount of motivation for USC as they will have to get to the tournament with an at large bid. The Ducks have already secured the PAC12 regular season title so they may play somewhat uninspired having defeated UCLA on Thursday and not really needing this game. This also gives the Trojans a chance to extract revenge from a 7 point loss in January. Jordan McLaughlin should have another good shooting game as he has been accurate of late. USC had eleven three point shits on Thursday and should carry that confidence into this game. Jovanovic also seems to be over his shooting slump. SC has the defense and now their shots are beginning to fall. Look for another strong output at home where they play as well as any in the conference.
