College Basketball Picks
Free Pick: Virginia Cavaliers vs. Louisville Cardinals
The only two teams that have beaten the Virginia Cavaliers since last season, the Duke Blue Devils and UMBC. Before we Google UMBC to find out who that is, lets just say Duke is a clear and present danger, and UVA is going to need to do everything in their power to avoid seeing Coach K’s squad come tournament time. A win today versus Louisville will help. Sportsbooks have the Cards as 5 point underdogs. Find out who Kyle Cash has!
Indiana Hoosiers vs. Iowa Hawkeyes Pick
This isn’t how things were supposed to go for the Hoosiers. Indiana was supposed to be on the upswing in Archie Miller’s second season in Bloomington, and Romeo Langford was supposed to lead the Hoosiers back into the NCAA tournament. It started out that way, but Indiana hasn’t looked anything like itself for the past two months. Sportsbooks have the Hoosiers as 7 point underdogs vs Iowa which no one would have predicted in pre-season. Is there value in a dog named Hoosier? DJ gives his prediction!
Free Pick: Michigan Wolverines vs. Minnesota Golden Gophers
Was the win over the Hoosiers the boost that Minnesota needs to get back on track, or a sign of just how far Indiana has fallen? If it’s the former, the Gophers have an excellent shot at getting a win they badly need in this contest. Minnesota nearly pulled off a stunner at Crisler Center on Jan. 22 by overcoming a 10-point deficit to tie the game, only to fall to Charles Matthews’ buzzer-beater. But in that defeat, Minnesota showed that the Wolverines could be beaten if they could defend the 3-pointer and find some offense of their own. DJ looks at tonight’s matchup and the sportsbook’s opening line of Michigan -4.5.
Basketball Pick: Pepperdine Waves vs. Gonzaga Bulldogs
The last time Pepperdine beat Gonzaga in Spokane, the following things were true: President Bill Clinton was the Times’ Man of the Year, Seinfeld was in its final season, and your very own Kyle Cash was learning his ABC’s in kindergarten. We’re 22 Marvel Movies and one Donald Trump presidency removed from that fateful day. But one thing we know about college basketball betting… The past does not dictate the future! That, and winning doesn’t matter. We are talking about staying within 27.5 points here! Cash gives his basketball prediction!
ACC Pick: Louisville Cardinals vs. Syracuse Orange
Syracuse is a small -2 favorite tonight when they host Louisville at the Carrier Dome tonight. The public is drinking the Cardinals Kool-Aid with ticket takers getting twice the Louisville action on this game. Will the Cash Man be a lemming and follow the masses or will he take a shot on the Orange? Read on to get his ATS selection.
