Arizona is at the head of the class in the Pac-10, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few contenders poised for potential upsets in NCAA basketball betting this week. This is your Pac-10 Tournament preview.

No. 16 Arizona (25-6, 15-13-1 ATS) unraveled toward the end of the season, losing back-to-back games to potential tournament foes UCLA and USC. Though the Wildcats bounced back to win their final two games, they’ve lost five consecutive games against the spread, hardly inspiring basketball heading into the conference tournament.

UCLA (22-9, 16-14-1 ATS), on the other hand, is 9-2 in its past 11 games, with both losses coming on the road and in overtime. The Bruins are also looking like a college basketball bettor’s best friend heading into the tourney; they’ve covered their last four outings and are 8-2 in their last 10 games against the spread.

Washington (20-10, 14-13-1 ATS) has enjoyed a strong season, but the Huskies are caving in at the worst possible time. They’ve gone 2-3 down the stretch, not to mention a brutal three-game losing streak against the spread.

USC (18-13, 14-12-4 ATS) is at the other end of the spectrum. The Trojans have won five of their last six games, with the lone loss coming on the road to Washington State. Southern Cal has also upped its game against the spread, going 5-1 ATS in its last six outings.

California (17-13, 15-13-1 ATS) is another great “hot at the right time” candidate. The Golden Bears are riding a four-game winning streak into the Pac-10 Tournament, including a 4-0 run against the spread.

Washington State (19-11, 15-12-1 ATS) looks solid on paper, but the team’s record was padded by a 10-1 start. The team has played below .500 basketball since then, including a brutal 2-5 run against the spread to close out the regular season.
