Gonzaga hasn’t played since March 2 against Saint Mary’s. By the time this game tips off, the Bulldogs will have been idle for nine days while the Waves have been in action and gotten themselves comfortable with playing in Orleans Arena. This sometimes means that the underdog is able to build momentum and hang with the favorite for longer than it should.

The Buckeyes have more to play for when they host the Badgers on Sunday afternoon at the Value City Arena, but that doesn’t mean that this is a meaningless game for the visitor. Ohio State is only 5-4 at home against the Big Ten and 4-5 versus the number this season. Read Dan’s breakdown on this match-up and see who he thinks is the right side to back versus the spread.

The Spartans will look to sweep the Wolverines when they take to the court of the Breslin Center tonight in East Lansing. An interesting trend is in play in this series with the straight up winner going a bankroll padding 10-1 against the spread. Our CBB handicapper has other ideas on what to bet today. Read on to get his pick.

The Wildcats shook off the blow out loss to Tennessee by defeating the Ole Miss Rebels this past week. They are now 14-3 in the conference, which is clearly good enough for a top four finish and the all-important double-bye in the SEC tournament starting next week. UK has some motivation to keep winning here in the regular season. They have an outside shot at the 2 seed for the SEC tourney. Is that enough motivation for bettors to expect a double digit cover against the spread? Matt Lowry breaks down the match up.

Louisville staved off some serious questioning following a win over Notre Dame. Had the Cardinals lost that one and ended up with a four-game skid that included Notre Dame and Boston College, both of whom will be playing in round one of the ACC tournament, it would have been a reasonable question as to whether they’re coming apart at the end of the season. But here they are against a Virginia team that sportsbooks have handicapped to win by double digits. The Cards have no pressure on them in this one. Can playing free on the momentum of their last win get bettors a underdog cover?

The Minnesota Golden Gophers take on the Maryland Terrapins tonight at 7pm EST and Dan Jamison takes on the sportsbooks and their spread of Maryland -7! The Terrapins’ shooters have really been struggling when they’ve needed a big basket. Maryland can’t afford to shoot 10.5 percent from the arc again if it’s going to win this contest. DJ looks deeper at recent play and gives his basketball pick.

Iowa has looked listless in its past two losses to Rutgers and Ohio State, and if not for an overtime surge against Indiana, the Hawkeyes would be riding a four-game losing streak. Can Iowa put up enough of a fight versus Wisconsin to stay within the spread of 7.5 points? Dan Jamison breaks down the bookie’s number and match-up!

The Gators are just a decent home team this year as they have a 9-5 record straight up on their floor. What’s worse is their home against the spread record is 3-11 and they are 0-8 against the spread in their last 8. This is a team that keeps finding way to come in below expectations. Has this team reached its floor? Matt Lowry breaks down the game and offers his basketball prediction.

These two teams are almost carbon copies of each other. They are both dependent on one major star for their points, not a lot of help behind those stars, and there is not much that either team does particularly well nor is there a major deficiency. The difference comes from the defenses. DJ breaks down those differences and how to bet your sportsbook.

Wake come into this one with a conference record of 4-12. In their last game against Syracuse, they shot the ball 32.7%, which was the main reason why they were blown out and had only two players who scored more than 10 points. Can an average shooting day from the Deacons keep them within 26.5 for a win against the spread? Matt Lowry has the college basketball pick.
