College Basketball Picks

With around a month or so left until March Madness, it’s time to reassess our futures tickets before odds start slimming down on the teams we like to “win it all.” Check out Dan’s up-to-date predictions for the Big Dance!

Neither team comes into this game off a run of strong play with the Jayhawks winners of just one of their last four and the Vols losers of two straight before a narrow victory over Miss St. That has our capper making his best bet on the total for this game. Read on to get his play.

Michigan is at its best when it denies open looks at the basket, mainly in the form of dunks, layups or 3-pointers. The Wolverines want every shot to be a contested look, and they are excellent at forcing their opponents to try to beat a defender. Does Northwestern have enough isolation talent and ability to take their man to the rim to make +12 the pick? DJ breaks down the matchup!

How good is San Francisco, really? The Dons have a glittering record to this point, but they haven’t played much of anyone either. San Francisco does have wins over both California and Stanford, both of which are usually great victories, but the Golden Bears and the Cardinal are a combined 12-18 so far this season. The Dons did play Buffalo, a game they lost. San Francisco looks like a much better team than it’s been in years but are they only 8 points worse than the powerhouse that is Gonzaga?

Zion Williamson has the highest PER in NCAA history, RJ Barrett looks like James Harden 2.0, and Cam Reddish has a vast collection of untapped potential just waiting to be wasted by the Orlando Magic – but is Duke really as good as their individual highlights? The Blue Devils travel to Florida to take on the 13th ranked Florida State Seminoles. Duke is finally playing in a true road game outside of of their state and we will see them tested as 7 point favroites. DJ has your college basketball pick!
