Which Longhorns team will show up today? That’s the big questions that bettors will try to answer. Dan Jamison breaks down this matchup but when it comes to the Horns, one thing is for sure: Jase Febres will be the offensive focus. Since Kervin Roach was suspended, Febres has taken it upon himself to provide the scoring for Texas. Against Iowa State, Febres had a career-high 26 points. Will the Tech defense allow him to get off? DJ has your college basketball pick.

The Michigan Wolverines head to Maryland to take on the Terrapins in Sunday NCAA betting action. The odds board has the Wolverines as the smallest of favorites laying -1 with the total line on most boards at 129/130.

Gonzaga and St. Mary’s will go at it for the second time this season but this time the venue switches to McKeon Pavilion in Moraga, California. The Zags crushed the Gaels 94-46 in the earlier meeting as a 17-point home favorite and now ZAGA bettors will have to lay only 10 or fewer this time around on the road. Can SMC keep it close this time around? Get our handicappers NCAAB prediction on tonight’s game.

North Carolina plays Clemson at the Littlejohn Coliseum Saturday at 6PM ET. The NCAA betting boards have the visitor as a 4.5 point favorite with an O/U line of 147.5. UNC had gotten the best of Clemson rolling off a long win streak before losing by four in their last meeting back in early 2018. Can they do it the Tar Heels again? Check out Matt’s opinion and get his ATS CBB Pick.

The Kentucky Wildcats head to Tennessee to take on the Vols in A big Saturday match-up at Thompson-Boling Arena. The linesmaker has posted Tennessee as a -2.5 point favorite with a total line of 141.

Rhode Island was expected to struggle this season after losing former coach Dan Hurley to Connecticut, and struggle is exactly what the Rams have done. Actually, Rhode Island was in pretty solid position for a possible NIT bid five weeks ago, but the Rams have dropped seven of their past nine and find themselves needing to win three of their next four games just to ensure eligibility for the postseason. Has URI given up or is this a team whom the sportsbooks have given too many points?

To the credit of Pacific coach Damon Stoudamire, he knows exactly what he has with his team. He’s well aware that his squad isn’t any good on offense, and if it’s going to have anything resembling a chance, it has to slow down the contest and limit possessions. A virtually shorter game means a puncher’s chance. But at +24 bettors want to know if those efforts might result in a cover. DJ has the NCAA pick.

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!
