College Basketball Season Record: 133-123-9 — Betting 1 Unit to Win X

  • 6:00pm cst: Texas Tech Red Raiders vs. TCU Horned Frogs -5; Total 145.5

The mighty Red Raiders will head into Fort Worth in 1st place in the Big 12 standings. TCU is coming off a triple OT thriller on the road defeating Baylor. These two teams rate very close to even except TCU is a better rebounding team and Tech is a better 3PT shooting team. I am not sure how fresh the legs will be for the Frogs after that Baylor game because fatigue may play a factor. I would make this game TCU -2.5. These Big 12 games have been blood baths. I think this game plays close and I want to side with the Red Raiders. TCU tends to scare me offensively. They can get very stale and run cold.

Pick: Texas Tech +5 (-108) [via DraftKings]

  • 7:00pm cst: Oklahoma Sooners vs. Kansas State Wildcats -2.5; Total 140

Both teams are on two-game losing streaks, indicating extreme Big 12 desperation. Oklahoma has been the colder of the two squads. K-State caught some really bad breaks against Iowa State and then was bulldozed by Houston. In my view, Kansas State is currently playing better basketball. It’s uncertain if or when OU will snap out of this slump. I’m supporting the home team after an embarrassing loss to Houston.

Pick: Kansas State -2.5 (-115) [via DraftKings]

  • 7:30pm cst: Mississippi State Bulldogs vs. Ole Miss Rebels -1; Total 139.5

This promises to be a great game. Mississippi State is coming off a significant home victory against Auburn, while Ole Miss has back-to-back wins against A&M and Arkansas. The Rebels do have Auburn up next, so there’s always a possibility of a distraction due to looking ahead. These teams are rated very closely, with Mississippi State being a superior rebounding team and Ole Miss being a much better 3PT shooting team. Mississippi State hasn’t won a road game this season, and Ole Miss hasn’t lost at home yet. In a game that could go either way, I’ll side with the home team that has a better three-point shooting record. The look ahead scares me but this is a rivalry game so it does not factor here.

Pick: Ole Miss -1 (-108) [via DraftKings]

  • 8:00pm cst: Miami Hurricanes vs. NC State Wolfpack -3.5; Total 155.5

In my view, this is a challenging matchup for NC State. The Wolfpack enjoys a fast-paced, high-scoring style of play. This is precisely the style that Miami excels at, and the Hurricanes play this game much better than the Wolfpack. I’ll take my chances with the superior road team that thrives in a run-and-gun game.

Pick: Miami +3.5 (-112) [via DraftKings]

  • 8:00pm cst: San Diego State Aztecs vs. Colorado State Rams -2.5; Total 142.5

This promises to be a fiercely contested game. San Diego State is striving to maintain its position at the top of the Mountain West, alongside Utah State, Boise State, and New Mexico. Meanwhile, Colorado State is attempting to catch up in an effort to salvage its season. The issue is that they have historically struggled against San Diego State. Given this historical struggle and their current challenges, I think I’ll side with the tougher road team. CSU tends to struggle against teams that are larger, more resilient, and better at rebounding.

Pick: San Diego State +2.5 (-110) [via DraftKings]
