*10* MASSACRE on Pittsburgh.

The Pittsburgh Panthers need to go on a run of they are going to go to the dance, and it has to start tonight with a home game against Louisville. We know the Cardinals aren't going to be involved in this year's tournament, as they are serving a self imposed post-season ban. With home court advantage and so much more to play for, my money is on the Panthers.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Cardinals have a great record when you look at wins and losses, but they haven't been a great bet to cover the point spread. That's particularly true when facing top teams, as they have failed to cover in seven straight road games against teams with a winning record.

2. Home Cookin' - Louisville is just 3-5 overall on the road, and is 0-7 ATS in it's last seven road games. Pittsburgh is 14-3 at home, and averages 81.6 points per game on it's own floor. The Cardinals offense is stagnant on the road, scoring just 72 points on 43.5 percent shooting.

3. X-Factor - Pittsburgh is averaging almost 38 rebounds per game over it's last five, and should have an advantage against the Cardinals who have a pair of big men sideline by injuries.

Selection: This is a play on the Pittsburgh Panthers (10*)
