Ohio State is taking the lion’s share of the public action and why not? They won in Michigan by three 61-58 and have recorded a 6-2 W/L mark at home against Big Ten foes. Dan looks at a few key metrics and gives out his opinion on who you should be playing versus the line.

Two cats walk into a bar… Ah nevermind! But seriously… Who wins when a Tiger gets into a fight with a Wildcat? The answer is the one who gets to fight on their own propery! Get Dan’s full take on this game that looks more competitive than it will actually be!

The Blue Devils/Cavaliers point spread is a bit suspicious at first glance, however, it’s warranted as Duke has been much less competitive away from Cameron Indoor Stadium. The key factor in this game will be motivation. Duke off a loss is a dangerous opponent!

KSU is 8-6 at home this campaign but they’re just 2-5 versus the Big 12. That said, they are 2-2 against the spread in their last four at Fred Bramlage Coliseum making it a tough call on the spread. The Jayhawks have been lighting it up in recent games and if the Wildcats can hit their 61.7 point scoring average in conference play the total may be the play here.

A 26-2 record is going to garner respect and respect equals big point spreads. Public perception is that Dayton is very good (and they are). The bookies are waiting with open arms in this type of scenario. The proof of the pudding is in the crust! While the Flyers have been winning all season, their backers have been sent to the poorhouse as of late as the Flyers have only covered one point spread as a double digit favorite over their past six games.
