College Basketball Picks

Our college basketball handicapper digs into some key metrics for Sunday’s Michigan at Ohio State battle. Get his betting opinion plus suggested point spread wager.

Duke has been playing better ball as of late especially on the defensive side of the court. Can they get the money as a small home dog against Virginia? Get Dan’s take.

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!
