5th-ranked Missouri at 3rd-ranked Baylor: A huge game for top hiearchy in the Big 12. Missouri is 17-1 on the year, same record as Baylor at 17-1. The Bears are coming off a loss to Kansas on Monday. Baylor is led by Perry Jones III who averages 14 points and eight rebounds per game. Missouri beats you with constant pressure and points scored. The Tigers are fourth in the nation at 84 points per game. Baylor with Jones in the middle, will be too much for Missouri in the end.

11th-ranked Connecticut at Tennessee: The Volunteers are enjoying a down season with a 8-10 record. Connecticut is another ranked team Tennesse has faced this season. Tennessee has played seven ranked teams this year. Connecticut is stacked with a roster full of guys who can score in double figures. Jeremy Lamb leads the way with 19 points per game. Connecticut will find a way to pull this out in the end.

7th-ranked Kansas at Texas: Another big game in the Big 12. Texas is enjoying a down year, but this will all be improved with a win here over Kansas. Texas at 12-6 still has a good record and a talented squad led by J'Covan Brown who averages 19 points per game. Kansas is keyed by Thomas Robinson in the middle. Robinson is averaging 17 points per game and 12 rebounds. I like Kansas to pull this one out in the end. Texas has nobody who can stop Robinson.

Stanford at Washington: Stanford at 15-4 sits in first place of the PAC-12. Washington is right behind with just two losses in conference and a 11-7 mark overall. The Huskies are amongst the nations leaders in scoring, averaging 78 points per game, its a lack of defense which hurts them. Stanford plays a more deliberate style of game, with a great defense. Josh Owens leads the team in scoring at 13 points per game. The Huskies though will gain a win here, by outscoring the Cardinal. Too strong of a offense for Stanford to keep up with.
