College Basketball Picks

The Murray State Racers are off an impressive 83-64 beat down of Marquette in the opening round. Florida State on the other hand had a tough go of it against Vermont. Can the Racers handle the size of the Seminoles? Read our handicapper’s take on the game and see where he thinks your money should land.

The Wofford Terriers will put their 21-game win streak on the line when they take the formidable Kentucky Wildcats. The NCAA basketball board has UK as a 5.5 favorite with the total line offered up at 138.5 points. Matt takes a look at all the angles and gives out his ATS prediction.

Baylor has been all over the lace this season, being good enough to sweep Iowa State and get the win versus Texas Tech but playing crappy enough to lose an Oklahoma State at home. There’s no telling what we’re going to get from Baylor, but the Bears showed what they’re capable of giving against Syracuse by hitting 16 shots from behind the arc. Can a hot Baylor team keep them within 13 of the Zags? DJ has your college hoops pick!

The Badgers are a team that love to slow things down. They should matchup well with Oregon because both teams are relatively low scoring teams and defend very well. They have a guy named Ethan Happ, who is a monster in the low post, and with Bol Bol being sidelined for Oregon that may be a big advantage for Wisconsin who sportsbooks opened as 2 point favorites. Matt Lowry digs deeper.

The Gaels aren’t a great team, but they’re on a bit of a run, having won 10 in a row to get to this point. Iona has found its way to the Dance for the fourth straight year. But do they have what it takes to improve on last year’s result where they lost by 22 to Duke? DJ has your Iona vs UNC prediction!
