Basketball Betting Pick - December 16, 2008

One premium college hoops pick today.

Today's NCAA Basketball Picks:

Game: Marqutte at Tennessee (9:30 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Tennessee -6 (-110) (risk 3 to win 2.7)

The Tennessee Volunteers had a horrible game last time out as they dropped a decision to Temple on the road. You can be sure they are going to come back with a vengeance in this one tonight. This will also be the first true road game for Marquette - and in a very hostile environment. The quickness that Marquette has utilized to beat other teams is negated by the quickness that Tennessee has on the perimeter here. The big difference and advantage here for the Vols, besides playing this one at home, is that they are strong and big underneath and average over 10 rebounds better than their opponent. I'll grab Tennessee who will be motivated to get back on the court at home.
