We've reset the Play of the Day with fresh bankrolls and turned it into a yearly competition. Our three sports writers have re-started with $10,000 bankrolls to continue using on odds from the South Point.

Cal at Utah over 136 points: $550 to win $500

When healthy, the Bears might be the better team in this matchup. And even without guard Tyrone Wallace, who is out for a few weeks with a broken hand, Cal is formidable in the Pac-12, and I think they’ll be able to dictate this game enough to get it above 136.

That number is so low because of Utah, which has gone under in six of the last seven games. But all of those had totals higher than the one tonight, including the Utes’ 71-58 loss at Cal a few weeks ago. This number is an overreaction, and tonight’s game will get to at least 140.

Current Standings (as of July 1): Brewer (32-28, $10,420), Bern (23-30, $6,955), Keefer (27-41-2, $4,402)

Lifetime standings: 2014-15 Champion Bern (103-103-1), Keefer (111-123-4), Brewer (101-116-2)
