#8 Pepperdine (-10) v. #9 Pacific. O/U 151.

This is a perfect opportunity to remind Pick 'Em Players we introduce Over/Unders in this, WCC Final Jeopardy. It takes a special kind of degenerate gambler to bet on a game like this. On one side of the court, we have Zombie Romar and The Team That Quit (I seriously doubt transfer-bound Houston Mallette suits up for this one). On the other side, we have the Hapless Tigers and their interim head coach, Josh Newman. Newman has 26(!) years of coaching experience, including 15(!) as a head coach, none in D1. His last gig was three seasons for the D2 Texas Permian Basin Falcons. "Clear eyes, full hearts", Tigers.

The Waves won the first matchup in Malibu in January, 93-78, Two weeks ago, Pepperdine beat UOP , 89-70.

Going all-in on Zombie Romar makes me laugh, so I am doing it. $440 on the Waves, plus a $400 parlay on the Waves AND the Over.
