College Basketball Picks

The Michigan Wolverines basketball team might just have what takes to win March Madness. However, a twelve-point spread vs. intra-state rival Michigan State is a bit lofty! See how Dan is betting this Big Ten clash here!

Motivation shouldn’t be a factor tonight at the Finneran Pavilion when Villanova hosts Creighton. The Wildcats suffered a beat down in their earlier meeting on the road against the Bluejays losing by 16 and will be looking for payback this time around.

Markus Howard is a beast for Marquette. The last time the teams met, Villanova actually did an excellent job on the rest of the Golden Eagles, holding them to just 28 points. The problem is that Howard did what he’s done for most of the year, lighting up teams. He had 38 vs Villanova. Howard is the type of player who can take over the game and carry his team, and the Wildcats have to prevent that from happening again tonight.

Online sportsbooks opened Virginia a 21 point favorites. That’s a lot even against a terrible Georgia Tech team! Matt Lowry looks at the pace of this game and what kind of scoring output Virginia will need to get a cover against this spread. Check out Matt’s NCAA prediction and game breakdown!

Losing Zion Williamson would have been a death knell for many teams, but Duke isn’t most teams. The Blue Devils are still incredibly talented, especially because R.J. Barrett is in the lineup. Williamson gets almost all of the accolades from fans and pundits, but it’s Barrett who is usually Duke’s most important player. Combine that with who is missing for Virginia Tech and we have a basketball pick on our hands! DJ breaks down Blue Devils/Hokies!
