Doggin' It

I've got one sports bet workin' today:

Washington ML -190 at Oregon (5:30 pst, FSNW).The Huskies have appeared to right the ship and are playing like the Pac 10 leader I thought they would be. The spread on this game is only four points, but the game is at the copycat Pit; so there's a good chance that a Husky could be distracted by an Oregon cheerleader and miss a few free throws. So just to be safe, I'll go money line on this game. As the septogenarian who turned down my proposal to work for him would say, "Just Win, Baby."

In other Pac-10 action, Arizona is a 3pt underdog at Cal (7:30 PST, FOXB). The 15-9 Wildcats, realizing that this trip to northern California could have big NCAA implications, have activated Chris Rodgers for the game. This despite being kicked off the team three weeks ago for undisclosed reasons. Lute Olson did not provide any details with his reinstatement. I guess he was able to do or undo whatever he did or didn't do to get kicked off the team. Either that, or Lute has decided that integrity isn't as important as keeping his NCAA tournament streak alive...
