NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/11/2010 - Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Donald Sloan finished with 23 points, as No. 23 Texas A&M defeated Nebraska, 70-64, in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 Tournament.

Khris Middleton added 17 points while B.J. Holmes provided 11 points for the Aggies (23-8), who advanced to face top-seeded and top-ranked Kansas in one of Friday's semifinals. The Jayhawks pulled away to beat Texas Tech earlier Thursday.

Sloan, Middleton and Holmes combined to go 9-of-18 from three-point range for Texas A&M, which has won its last four games.

Ryan Anderson had 16 points to pace Nebraska (15-18), which had knocked off fifth-seeded Missouri in the opening round. Jorge Brian Diaz and Sek Henry finished with 14 and 13 points, respectively.

Down by double digits more than six minutes into the second half, the Cornhuskers ripped off 11 consecutive points to get back in the game. Anderson ended it with a three to get Nebraska within 49-47.

The game continued to be close, and with 3:20 left, an Anderson jumper had Nebraska within 57-55. However, Texas A&M countered with a Middleton three, and after Anderson missed from long distance, Sloan's jumper made it a 62-55 contest with two minutes left.

It was critical separation for the Aggies, who led by at least two possessions the rest of the way.

Texas A&M scored the game's first eight points and played in front the entire first half. The Huskers were within five just inside the final minute, but the Aggies got a free throw from Ray Turner and three from Sloan to go into the break with a 37-28 advantage.

Texas A&M then scored the first seven points of the second half to push the advantage to 44-28.

Game Notes

Nebraska shot 50 percent and held a 29-25 rebounding advantage...Texas A&M shot just under 43 percent and made 19-of-25 free throws.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
