COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME KENTUCKY MONEYLINE The Wildcats have won four out of their last five games overall with their lone loss in that span an 82-78 loss to Tennessee in the SEC tourney. Kentucky is 6-4 against opponents ranked in the AP Top 25 this season. They are currently averaging 76.4 points, ranking them 78th overall. The Wildcats’ terrific defense is limiting opponents to 64.5 points, good for 28th in the country. I like the Wildcats here. |

03-29-19 | Virginia Tech v. Duke -7 | Top | 73-75 | Loss | -102 | 7 h 45 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME DUKE -7 The Blue Devils were able to advance to the Sweet Sixteen, but they did show some vulnerabilities, particularly Tre Jones’ struggles shooting the ball. He went 5-of-15 from the floor and 1-of-8 from 3-pointer on a night where the Knights basically dared him to shoot. The Hokies could essentially attempt to employ the same strategy of putting a guard on Williamson and leaving Jones out on an island. However, one has to think Duke will be better prepared for that defensive wrinkle this time around. UCF’s game plan was unique and seemingly caught the Blue Devils off guard. Not to mention they also had the presence of 7-foot-6 center Tacko Fall to challenge Williamson at the rim. Virginia Tech is a tremendous defensive team, but their personnel won’t be able to match up with Duke’s offense like UCF did. The combination of Williamson and Barrett will give them fits the same way they have every other team they’ve faced this season. Williamson wasn’t on the floor the last time these two teams met in the regular season. The Hokies are about to learn how much of a difference one man can make. I’m taking the Blue Devils in this game. |

03-29-19 | Auburn v. North Carolina -5 | Top | 97-80 | Loss | -113 | 4 h 32 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME North Carolina -5 I am taking North Carolina in this matchup. North Carolina’s rebounding will play a big factor in this game. The Tar Heels lead the country with an average of 44.1 rebounds per game. Auburn is not a strong rebounding team. They were out-rebounded 39-24 against NMSU, and 38-27 by Kansas in their latest game. Furthermore, the Tar Heels offense should be able to have their way offensively. UNC is shooting a solid 36.5% from three-point range, and the Tigers three-point defense stands down at 223rd in the country. Lastly, the Tar Heels have limited their two opponents to a field goal percentage below 41% in both of their tournament wins. |

The Volunteers ran their mark to 31-5 on the year and 15-3 in the SEC as they enter this contest. Tennessee led 44-19 with 4:22 to play in the first half and was up 49-28 at halftime.

CBB 100 DIME GAME CREIGHTON +4 The Bluejays put up an average of 78.5 points per game so far this season. Creighton grabs 34.2 boards a night while dishing out 16 assists per contest. The Bluejays are below average on the defensive end of the floor as the team ranks 228th in scoring defense by allowing 73.2 points a game. Ty-Shon Alexander leads the team with 15.9 points plus 2.7 assists a night. Marcus Zegarowski (10.6 points, 3.4 assists) and Mitch Ballock (11 points) also average in double figures. Damien Jefferson, Martin Krampelj (13.7 points, 6.9 rebounds), Jacob Epperson, Samson Froling, Kaleb Joseph and Connor Cashaw all average double-digit minutes for Creighton. The Bluejays are shooting a solid 48.3 percent from the floor on the year. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME IOWA ST -5.5 I am taking Iowa State in this contest. Iowa State has all the momentum in this matchup. They won the Big 12 Tournament with three outstanding wins against opponents that all own a better record than Ohio State which included wins against 15th ranked Kansas State and 17th ranked Kansas. The Cyclones are playing stellar defense, allowing an average of only 63.7 points in their last three games. Furthermore, Ohio State is having a very inconsistent season, and they stand at 3-7 in their last 10 games overall. They do not have the offensive firepower to solve the Cyclones defense. The Buckeyes have scored 67 or fewer points in seven out of their last ten games overall. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME UCF -109 The Rams have played well against the spread, winning four of their last five games against teams with winning records and 15 of their last 19 NCAA tournament games.

03-22-19 | Iona v. North Carolina -23.5 | Top | 73-88 | Loss | -109 | 68 h 48 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME NORTH CAROLINA -23.5 As boasting the three No. 1 seeds indicates, the ACC is simply a dominant conference. Going 16-2 in said conference–with a regular-season sweep of Duke–is not small feat. North Carolina will be eager to put a hurt on someone following its loss to Duke and it will also be wary of Virginia’s No. 1 vs. No. 16 loss to UMBC in last last year’s tournament. Iona is 1-13 all-time at the NCAA Tournament, with its lone win coming in 1980. This should be absolute beatdown city. Iona is 2-6 ATS in its last eight at neutral sites, 0-6 ATS in its last six NCAA Tournament games, and 0-7 ATS in its last seven against opponents with winning percentages over .600. North Carolina is 4-0 ATS in its last four overall and 10-3 ATS in its last 13 against winning opponents. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME GEORGIA ST +12 Georgia State is positioned at 111th in the country in Ken Pomeroy’s college basketball rankings. They went 4-1 on neutral site courts this season, and they notched upset wins against Georgia and Alabama this season. The Panthers are averaging 77.1 points on the season, ranking them 67th overall. Georgia State is allowing an average of 72.9 points, positioning them 218th in the country. The Cougars are currently ranked at 15th in the country in Ken Pomeroy’s college basketball rankings, and they went 3-0 on neutral site territory this season. Houston is averaging 75.6 points on the season, ranking them 99th overall. The Cougars are one of the best defensive teams in the country, and they are holding opponents to 61.8 points, good for eighth overall. The points is the play here. |

03-22-19 | Oregon v. Wisconsin -130 | Top | 72-54 | Loss | -130 | 63 h 58 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME WISCONSIN -130 Oregon has been one of the hottest teams in the country down the stretch of the regular season, as they won their final eight games to earn an unlikely bid to the NCAA Tournament. Meanwhile, Wisconsin’s continuity from last year (14th in the NCAA) undoubtedly helped them jell as the season moved along. The Badgers won 12 of their final 16 conference games, winning eight Quadrant One games during that span. Wisconsin is the more well-rounded team and they have are tough enough to compete defensively with the Ducks, so I’ll take my chances with the Badgers covering the spread in this first round matchup on Friday. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GOY OLE MISS -1.5 The Rebels have played well against the spread, winning 13 of their last 16 non-conference games and 24 of their last 33 games.

03-21-19 | Baylor v. Syracuse -1.5 | Top | 78-69 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 42 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME SYRACUSE -1.5 Howard’s absence drops the confidence in the Orange severely because of how it impacts Battle’s responsibilities offensively. He is going to wind up handling the ball more regardless of who replaces Howard in the starting lineup, and that is a concern because of how it affects how he gets others involved in the offense for Syracuse. The spread is small enough where the Orange can still cover and perhaps even comfortably because of their defense — but on the surface, it does look like they will need time for players to figure out their roles without Howard running the point. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME MICHIGAN +1.5 John Beilein has been waiting for this game for a week. His team has lost two straight to Michigan State but before that had won three straight. He will figure out a way to get his tempo and keep Goins and Ward off the boards. Simpson will play better against Winston and the team that had an easy game against Minnesota, will have the edge in this one against Sparty. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME HARVARD +4.5 This one is going to be an entertaining contest between a pair of bitter rivals with the prize being a bid in March Madness. Harvard has won four straight meetings and they have been better with the return of Aiken after he missed the first 13 games of the year. The Bulldogs are playing on their home floor in this contest but they’re going to be facing a veteran team in the Crimson. Tommy Amaker has his team ready to go and Aiken is the big factor here. Look for Harvard to claw their way to a victory here: take the points in this one. |

03-16-19 | Florida State +8 v. Duke | Top | 63-73 | Loss | -103 | 8 h 23 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME FLORIDA ST +8 FSU shot 56.5 percent against Virginia–the top-ranked scoring defense and third-ranked field-goal percentage defense in Division I. This has always been a decent matchup for the ‘Noles and this season appears to be no different. They have the bodies to bang with Williamson and company, plus the Devils are not deep and they were thoroughly exhausted at the end of their semifinal thriller. Duke is 0-3-1 ATS in its last four against the ACC, 1-3-1 ATS in their last five at neutral sites, and 0-7 ATS in its last seven following a win. The Seminoles are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings between the two teams. |

03-16-19 | Wisconsin v. Michigan State -5 | 55-67 | Win | 100 | 1 h 54 m | Show | |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME MICHIGAN ST -5 Happ had 20 points in that first meeting so there’s no way he’s scoring four this time. The one thing that bothers me about Michigan State aside from the injuries to Langford and Ward not playing at 100% yet, is their inability to guard the three-point shot. That probably also concerns Tom Izzo because Wisconsin can control the tempo, get the ball to Happ in the post and he’ll move the ball to the perimeter, where the Badgers have a bunch of good three-point shooters. |

03-16-19 | Florida v. Auburn -160 | Top | 62-65 | Win | 100 | 1 h 47 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME AUBURN -160 One gets the sense Auburn is gathering steam after a mature performance against South Carolina given the Gamecocks had the Tigers’ number in recent games. Harper and Brown are peaking at the right time, and this is a favorable matchup given the Gators do not have an imposing frontcourt that could give them issues like South Carolina could. With Florida, one has to consider the letdown factor after such a huge win in terms of beating the regular-season conference champion and having everyone tell the Gators they are now comfortably in the NCAA Tournament field after toppling the Tigers a second time. This may be a game where Auburn can put its foot on the pedal and pull away for a victory. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME IOWA +8 It’s hard not to like Michigan. They are well-coached but Iowa has something special in tournaments. They are 9-0 ATS their last 9 in neutral site games. Michigan’s lack of dynamic offense and Iowa’s strong three-point shooting led by Baer and Wieskamp gives them a shot to win this game outright. Revenge or no revenge, they are going to win this game. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME WEST VIRGINIA +10.5 West Virginia pulled off a fantastic upset. This is a night for Mountaineer nation to celebrate, but they will have a challenge against Kansas. Kansas is not the same team like they use to be. Kansas beat W. Virginia by 14 points at home, but this game is in neutral court. W. Virginia took out Texas Tech and Oklahoma in this last 2 games, putting up 79 points against Oklahoma. Kansas took a beating from Oklahoma and Texas Tech. Take the points here. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME WASHINGTON -130 Washington has a strong front 5 with good depth. They have been solid within the paint to hold opponents to just 64ppg. Colorado is aggressive, but they don't have the talent to get them to the next level. Washington already handled Colorado in the last matchup this year, limiting them to 54 points. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME MINN +10 Purdue is a legit No. 3 and a loss here won’t matter. They should be rusty after having not played in nearly a week. The Gophers have the size to hang with the Boilermakers thanks to Murphy. The Coffey/Edwards matchup should be fantastic but will cancel each other out. The Golden Gophers have more motivation and that will get them through against a team they match up well against. |

03-15-19 | Alabama v. Kentucky -12.5 | 55-73 | Win | 100 | 6 h 2 m | Show | |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME KENTUCKY -12.5 The expectation is Calipari will use Travis off the bench in short spurs and likely wind up near 20 minutes. While everyone will be looking to see how in sync the Wildcats are with Travis in the lineup, the other expectation is that Alabama will run out of gas in the second half given Kentucky’s ability to challenge on the perimeter with its length. Tyler Herro and PJ Washington are a potent offensive combo and have the ability to exploit the Tide’s tired legs. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME VIRGINIA -9 Florida will need to clean up its 17 turnovers if it hopes to put up points against the nation’s top-ranked scoring defense on Friday. Guy scored 21 points in the previous game against Florida State, including 18 in the first half, while Braxton Key added a season-high 20. Jerome should bounce back; after all, he averaged 13.5 ppg during the regular season. Virginia is 4-1 ATS in its last five against opponents with winning records, 5-1 ATS in its last six against opponents with winning percentages over .600, and 38-17-1 ATS in its last 56 following a win |

03-14-19 | Texas v. Kansas -2.5 | Top | 57-65 | Win | 100 | 9 h 53 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME KANSAS -2.5 Kansas has really had their issues this season without Azubuike and Vick, not to mention Silvio de Sousa, who was declared ineligible for all of this season and the 2019-20 campaign. The Jayhawks are trying to get by with secondary options. Lawson is a force in the low block and that is going to be a massive undertaking for Texas, especially Osetkowski, to handle. The Jayhawks have been here before and they should have a fair amount of crowd support with the Sprint Center being within relative shouting distance of Lawrence. Texas hasn’t proven that they are capable of playing a full 40 minutes and that’s their undoing here. Kansas moves on and Texas is left wondering if their record is worth an at-large bid in March Madness. |

03-14-19 | Georgetown v. Seton Hall -155 | Top | 57-73 | Win | 100 | 9 h 47 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME SETON HALL -155 I am siding with Seton Hall in this contest. The Pirates enter this one with confidence after they concluded their regular season with two big wins against a ranked Marquette and Villanova team. Georgetown relies on their offense to win games, however, Seton Hall defends reasonably well, and they limited the Hoyas to 45% and 35% shooting in their two meetings. Furthermore, the Hoyas defense often lands them in trouble. Georgetown has squandered an average of 82.2 points in their last five games overall. Seton Hall was able to score 79 points against Villanova on the weekend, and I expect them to exploit the Hoyas’ weak defense. |

03-14-19 | North Texas v. Western Kentucky -145 | Top | 51-67 | Win | 100 | 8 h 25 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME WESTERN KENTUCKY -145 North Texas had now lost seven games in a row both straight up and against the spread prior to its first-round victory. This team was off to a 16-1 start, with its only loss to Oklahoma. The Mean Green now sit at 21-11 (8-10 in conference play during the regular season) and 10-19-1 ATS. In the last 10 games, WKU senior guard Lamonte Bearden has 66 combined assists against just 17 turnovers. He leads C-USA in conference play with a 3.2-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio. Sophomore guard Josh Anderson is one of 12 players in the country with at least 120 total rebounds, 52 steals, and 21 blocks this season. He is one of two players from Conference USA to reach those marks. The Mean Green are 7-18-1 ATS in their last 26 against Conference USA and 1-4 ATS in their last five following a win. Western Kentucky is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings between the two teams |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME OLE MISS -160 The hedge is the Rebels have sufficiently righted themselves with that win over Arkansas, one that for all intents and purposes put them in the NCAA Tournament. They should be playing for seeding at this point, which means Davis can turn his team loose in this contest. If Ole Miss hangs onto the ball better than it did in the first game, it should win this contest going away. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME KANSAS ST -175 Clearly, the loss of Wade could have an impact for Kansas State as he continues to deal with a foot injury that cost him the NCAA Tournament last season and has lingered all season long. The hope is that with treatment this week, he’ll be able to go in March Madness next week to help the Wildcats try to make a deep run. In this one, Kansas State has the upper hand as their suffocating defense is going to make life miserable for a team that has struggled at times this season and that is playing their second game in as many nights. Weber schemes to shut down the offense and Brown Jr., Sneed and Stokes do the rest as Kansas State advances. |

This Illinois team is a player or two away from competing to be in the elite of this conference next season. They really struggled their last two games but they will get back in action against a team that has one win in their last 11. The Wildcats just don’t have the explosiveness on offense to compete. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME NEBRASKA +1 The home team has dominated this series as of late, covering the spread in four consecutive matchups. Iowa has stumbled down the stretch of the Big 10 Conference season and while Nebraska has struggled all year long, senior day tends to bring out some magic for losing teams. Expect big games from James Palmer and Glynn Watson in their final regular season home game and take Nebraska to cover the number in this spot on Sunday afternoon. |

03-09-19 | Oregon v. Washington -4.5 | Top | 55-47 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 22 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME WASHINGTON -4.5 The Washington Huskies enter their regular-season finale targeting their third straight win. The Huskies have already won the regular season Pac-12 title, and they have locked up a #1 seed in the conference tournament. They improved to 15-2 in conference play in an 81-76 overtime home win over Oregon State in their latest contest. The Huskies posted a sharp 54% clip from the field while limiting Oregon State to 46% shooting. David Crisp led the way offensively with 22 points on a 7 for 9 shooting performance. The senior guard has shot above 60% in two out of his last three games, and he stands second in team scoring with 12.9 PPG. Huskies’ top scorer Jaylen Nowell is also playing well. The sophomore guard scored 18 points in Wednesday’s win, and he is carrying an average of 16.3 PPG on 50% shooting, paired with 5.5 RPG. Oregon is a tough school, but they are not strong on the road. They have lost a lot of games, and I have Washington by 7 points or more. |

03-09-19 | UC-Santa Barbara v. Cal Poly OVER 137.5 | Top | 92-82 | Win | 100 | 9 h 18 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 137.5 OVER Cal Poly has struggled all season long on both ends of the floor and there’s little reason to think that things will turn around here in the regular season finale. The Mustangs sputtered in the first matchup with the Gauchos this season, mustering only 56 points. UC Santa Barbara has some momentum after winning in the closing seconds in their last game and they have three wins in their last four games coming into this one. The Gauchos are 6-6 on the road, which is better than the 4-7 mark that the Mustangs have at home. Cal Poly is just 1-8 ATS at home this year: that’s enough to give the edge to UC Santa Barbara. The over is in the play here. I have Santa Barbara winning 78-72 |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME MEMPHIS -8 Memphis has gone 14-2 at home this season while Tulsa is only 3-7 on the road. The Tigers are going to be amped up for senior night and they are an extremely dangerous offensive team. Tulsa has the edge on the defensive end of the floor but the question remains whether they have the weaponry to hang with the explosive Tigers’ offense. Memphis is looking to avenge their loss in the first meeting between the teams this season. The Tigers ride the shooting of Martin and Davenport to pick up the home win in this contest. |

The Green Wave is at home here, but they are just 3-11 on the year in those contests. Wichita State has struggled on the road but they do have the momentum from three straight wins in their pocket coming into this contest. The Shockers are the better team on both ends of the floor and that is important in this contest. Wichita State makes it four straight victories as they come up with the win on the road here to finish the regular season on a high note. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME NC -4 Duke won’t last long in the NCAA tournament without Williamson on the floor. Their offense is too one-dimensional with them opting to put the ball in Barrett’s hands and stand around waiting on him to make a play. It almost seems rudimentary to say this with a legendary coach like Mike Krzyzewski at the helm, but the Blue Devils need to get back in their playbook and setup their offense. It’s hard trusting them on the road against a team like North Carolina after they almost got knocked off by Wake Forest at home. They won’t have to deal with the shock of not having Williamson in the rematch against the Tar Heels. They know he’s not coming back for this game, and they’ll be forced to try to slow down one of the best offenses in the country without their best defender. Williamson masks so many problems for the Blue Devils, and his absence has only magnified those issues. This isn’t even close to the same Duke team we saw before Williamson went down, and North Carolina will once again prey on the wounded Blue Devils like sharks in water. Give me the Tar Heels in this game. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME COLORADO -7 Colorado has won eight of 12 meetings against USC since joining the Pac-12 in 2011. Included in that number is the Buffaloes’ 69-65 road win on Feb. 9, when Wright scored 20 points and Colorado shot 49.1 percent and finished with a 38 to 29 rebound advantage. The Buffaloes are tops in the Pac-12 with a 5.5 average rebound margin, while USC ranks 10th with a minus-1.7 margin. USC is 2-6 ATS in its last eight against the Pac-12, 5-11 ATS in its last 16 against opponents with winning percentages over .600, and 1-8 ATS in its last nine on the road against opponents with winning home records.

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 125.5 OVER The Cavaliers have been dominating ACC opponents on the defensive end of the floor, which is no easy feat. Virginia ranks second in the nation in both offense and defense this year and both of their losses came at the hands of the vaunted Duke Blue Devils. Meanwhile, Louisville enters this matchup losing three of their last four, which includes a 12-point loss to Virginia on Feb. 23. Virginia wins 74-66. |

03-08-19 | Northern Iowa +3 v. Southern Illinois | 61-58 | Win | 100 | 4 h 47 m | Show | |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME NORTHERN IOWA +3 The Panthers have an alright defense, but very little offense. They used to have elite three-point shooters, but now they’re average at best from beyond the arc. Their offense really needs more dominant scorers who can carry the load, and they have just one player averaging double-digit scoring. Their offense ranks 219th nationally on Kenpom, which isn’t going to cut it here. Another reason I’m not bullish on the Panthers’ chances is the experience gap. Northern Iowa’s best player, the only one averaging more than ten points per game, is a freshman. A.J. Green is a good player, but he’s never played in a game like this before. Experience matters a ton in these conference tournament games, and the Panthers don’t have much of it. They’re a relatively young team going up against one of the most experienced teams in college basketball that is made up almost entirely of seniors. It’s a huge gap, and it will prove costly here. They also don’t have any momentum as they enter this one off two straight losses, including a blowout loss to a really bad Indiana State team. Northern Iowa for the upset |

COLLEGE HOOPS 75 DIME GAME WISCONSIN -6.5 Iowa's coach is still serving his suspension, and the team is relying on the assistant coach. Rutgers just gave Iowa a beating in the last game on the road, which was embarrassing. The Badgers have played well against the spread, winning five of their last seven games against teams with winning records and 10 of their last 14 home games against teams with winning road records. The Hawkeyes have struggled against the spread, losing their last six games and four of their last five games against teams with winning records. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME NORTHWESTERN -119 The lack of offense Ohio State showed without Wesson at Purdue was concerning, but the bigger concern is the freshman accounting for nearly half of the Buckeyes’ 200 minutes, something that will be the case again in this contest. Playing against Northwestern is never easy because of the style, but Ohio State playing without its leading scorer and starting three freshmen on the road against a team that plays four upperclassmen among its top six players is a recipe for disaster. Losing by 35 at Purdue does not inspire much confidence in picking the Buckeyes, even against the last-place Wildcats — who look like they have one last upset in them. People have picked up on Wesson not playing as the line has swung 2.5 points to make the Wildcats 1.5-point favorites in this one. So if you felt upset-minded and grabbed this one early, pat yourself on the back. |

They are still playing for a Big 10 Title and while they are off a tough loss to Indiana, they had won their previous five games and outscored their foes by 13.6 ppg over that stretch. MSU is 13-1 at home and have outscored their foes by 22.9 ppg in those games, while the Cornhuskers have lost their last three conference road games and have been outscored by 24 ppg in those games. I like the Spartans here, but the total is better value. Spartans hold opponents to just 63 points per game. MSU won earlier 70-64. The under is the play here. |

The Hokies are off a huge win of the Blue Devils, but I see a bit a letdown coming in this one and that is not good for them as they are facing a Florida State team that is 14-1 at home and on a roll. The Noles have won 10 of their last 11 games overall and they have averaged 79.5 ppg at home, while the Hokies have averaged just 63.6 ppg on the road.

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 137 UNDER The Wildcats are in a freefall right now with nine straight defeats, which has dropped them into the basement in the conference. Northwestern now has to go on the road, where they are just 1-8 on the season. That doesn’t instill much in the way of confidence if you’re hoping for the Wildcats to suddenly turn things around. Illinois has dropped three in a row coming into this one but they own home victories over Michigan State and Maryland this season. The Fighting Illini battled tough against Wisconsin on the road before losing by six. Illinois has played better than Northwestern of late and with having home court here. The value is in the under. I have Illinois winning 67-63 |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME KENTUCKY +3 I am taking Kentucky in this contest. Tennessee hasn’t been nearly as sharp recently, recording a 2-2 record in their last four games, and they barely managed a 73-71 win against Ole Miss on Wednesday. The Vols have cooled down offensively, averaging 70 points in their last four games which included only 69 points against Kentucky a few weeks ago. Furthermore, Kentucky continues to excel in both ends of the court, and they have won four consecutive games. The Wildcats defense is very reliable, and they have limited their opponents to an average of 61.5 points in their current four game winning streak. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME OLE MISS +2.5 While this is not a must-win game for the Rebels, it is a game they need in this fight for fourth because Kentucky is not going to do them any favors coming to Oxford in a three-way battle for first itself. Ole Miss did everything right but Tyree hitting that free throw, so it is clear Davis’ team can play with anyone in the country. On the other side, Arkansas may get some inspiration for honoring its 1994 championship team, but the Razorbacks are learning the fine lines between winning and losing — something that will happen again in this game as Ole Miss escapes with a road victory. |

The Rams are on the road here, where they are 3-7 on the season, which is going to make it a tough challenge. Dayton has three straight wins and they are tied for second in the Atlantic 10 coming into this contest. The Flyers, even with a rather short rotation, has had success this year and they are 12-3 at home. You have to give the edge the Dayton in this contest as they maintain at least a share of second in the Atlantic 10. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME HARVARD -5 The Crimson responded well to Amaker calling them out for selfish play after a 67-61 home loss to Cornell that preceded their four-game road swing and totaled 31 assists in the last two games. Aiken has averaged 21.8 points in 10 games since recovering from a knee injury, and he gives them a swagger that Harvard will need to win the Ivy League tournament. This is the type of Ivy League game where star scoring power matters, and where Penn will again miss Ryan Betley, who suffered a season-ending knee injury five minutes into the first game. The Quakers have been a team struggling to get over the hump, and with Harvard clicking offensively and at home, the Crimson are the pick. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME KANSAS ST +5 This technically qualifies as a revenge game for Kansas, which lost on the road vs. the Wildcats 74-67 on Feb. 5. However, Kansas comes into this game banged up and they just don’t have the depth or experience on the wings to survive without Vick in the lineup. A sweep of perennial Big 12-favorite Kansas would likely help the Wildcats usurp them in the national rankings, which would also boost their NCAA Tournament resume as well. Take Kansas State to come out and cover the spread in Allen Fieldhouse on Monday night. |

However, Michigan State will have its hands full in this spot. Zavier Simpson is one of the best on-ball defenders in the country and he will be matched up with Spartans star point guard Cassius Winston, which could slow down Michigan’s offensive attack.

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME Texas Tech -5 Kansas got the upper hand at Allen Fieldhouse earlier this month but the Jayhawks were in better shape at that point in time. With Vick missing in action, it takes a proven perimeter threat out of the mix for the Jayhawks. Bill Self offered no update for a timetable for Vick’s return, so that’s something to take into consideration. Texas Tech has won four straight since that point and they are 14-1 at home on the year while Kansas is just 2-6 on the road this year. The Red Raiders get the upper hand in this one to avenge their loss earlier this month. |

02-23-19 | Duke v. Syracuse +5 | Top | 75-65 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 30 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME SYRACUSE +5 For a sense of perspective when comparing the betting lines for the two games, consider Duke was a 17.5-point favorite in Durham with Williamson for the first meeting. If Duke was playing any other opponent, it would be easy to consider the Blue Devils’ resiliency and still-formidable offense loaded with quality scorers who can rally together to win one without their most influential and best player. The problem, however, is the opponent. Syracuse is the worst possible opponent to play at this possible time for Duke. The Orange made the Blue Devils miserable on the perimeter in the first meeting. Yes, a lot of that can be chalked up to Reddish missing the game and Jones missing all but six minutes of it. But now consider Williamson’s absence as it pertains to Duke’s spacing on offense and how far Syracuse can extend its zone on defense. Already long, the Orange will be able to push out on the wings of the 3-point line, which is one of the universal places to shoot 3s against a zone. Additionally, they have a solid rim protector in Chukwu should Duke choose to attack the basket. The Blue Devils finished with 43 treys without Jones and Reddish; without Williamson to create an inside-out game, that number may happen again. And Duke is not a good enough team to win shooting that many treys. |

COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME MISSOURI ST -6.5 Indiana State came up with a win in their last game but that was on their home floor. The Sycamores are next to last in the Missouri Valley Conference standings and this is going to be a tough matchup. Missouri State struggled to put points on the board in their loss to Northern Iowa and they need to pick up some momentum heading into the conference tournament. That loss knocked the Bears out of a share of the top spot in the standings. Missouri State makes up for that defeat by taking down the Sycamores in this one. |

02-23-19 | Auburn +7.5 v. Kentucky | Top | 53-80 | Loss | -110 | 2 h 1 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME AUBURN +7.5 Auburn is a solid team with a strong from five. They average 81 pig, and hold opponents to just 67 ppg. Today they will face a top completive team that matches very well. Kentucky averages 78 ppg, and holds opponents to just 65 ppg. I like this game within 4 points, and a possible upset. |

02-22-19 | Indiana v. Iowa -7 | Top | 70-76 | Loss | -109 | 8 h 56 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME IOWA -7 Though the Hoosiers played better in their last game, one gets the sense that late bucket by Purdue’s Matt Haarms may have been the knockout blow to their NCAA Tournament hopes. Playing an up-tempo team like Iowa is dangerous because the Hawkeyes have the firepower to run teams out of the gym. Iowa is eager to bounce back from a tough loss itself and is playing at a level Indiana cannot equal at this moment. |

02-22-19 | Davidson v. Rhode Island UNDER 132 | 75-66 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 40 m | Show | |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 132 UNDER This is a pick leaning heavily against Rhode Island due to its perimeter struggles. Davidson is also a solid defensive team, yielding 65.4 points per game, and with the Rams shooting woes, this may be a first to 60 wins type of contest. |

02-21-19 | Oregon v. USC UNDER 138 | Top | 49-66 | Win | 100 | 5 h 16 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 138 UNDER The Ducks lead the Pac-12 and rank 16th nationally in three-point percentage defense (29.7 percent). The under is 4-0 in the Ducks’ last four overall, 4-0 in their last four against the Pac-12, 7-2 in their last nine on the road, 7-2 in their last nine on the road against opponents with winning home records, and 6-2 in their last eight following a loss. It is also 6-0 in the Trojans’ last six at home, 6-1 in their last seven at home against opponents with losing road records, 20-7 in their last 27 against the Pac-12, and 20-7-1 in their last 28 following a win. Look for this one to stay under the total. |

02-21-19 | San Francisco v. BYU UNDER 146.5 | Top | 77-71 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 13 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 146.5 UNDER These two teams have stayed under the projected total in four of their last five games. The Dons have stayed under in four of their last five games versus a team with a winning record. On the other hand, BYU has stayed under in four straight home games and eight of their last nine WCC contests. Look for this conference battle to go under the projected total on Thursday night. |

02-21-19 | Oregon +2.5 v. USC | Top | 49-66 | Loss | -109 | 5 h 9 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME OREGON +2.5 The fact the Ducks are still in the running for a top four-finish is impressive considering they lost their best player–7’2” freshman center and likely lottery pick Bol Bol–to a left-foot injury before conference play even started. Bol was leading the team in scoring (21.0 ppg), rebounding (9.6 rpg), and blocks (2.7 bpg) while also shooting an amazing 52 percent from three-point range. Louis King, a 6’9” freshman forward, has helped pick up some of the slack to the tune of averaging 16.0 ppg in Pac-12 action–tops for any freshman in the conference. Junior point guard Payton Pritchard is averaging 11.8 ppg and 4.4 apg, while White is chipping in 10.5 ppg and 3.8 rpg. Oregon is 25-4 after Feb. 14 in Pac-12 play over the last five seasons. Oregon gave USC a beaten last month with no problem. Great Play |

02-21-19 | Michigan v. Minnesota UNDER 133 | 69-60 | Win | 100 | 3 h 17 m | Show | |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME 133 UNDER This has been an “Over” series of late, but I see this one going Under the Total. the Wolverines have allowed just 59.9 ppg in league play and the Golden Gophers have averaged just 62.8 ppg over their last five games. The Minnesota defense has not been horrible this year and should be able to have a decent showing against a Michigan offense that has averaged just 67.8 ppg on the road, 66.2 ppg in their last five games and 67.8 ppg in league play. Michigan plays very slow on offense and their defense is too tough to think that a struggling Minnesota offense will score much on them. The Under is 17-4-1 in Michigan’s last 22 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and that seals the deal for me. |

02-20-19 | Pittsburgh v. Georgia Tech -2 | Top | 65-73 | Win | 100 | 9 h 5 m | Show |
COLLEGE HOOPS 100 DIME GAME GEORGIA TECH Pittsburgh might be sitting at the bottom of the ACC conference, but they don’t have to finish their season in that spot. There are at least four other teams, including Georgia Tech, that are one game out from being in their situation. The Yellow Jackets don’t want to be the team looking up at the rest of the conference after dropping a game to Pittsburgh, especially when the game is on their home court. Fortunately for the Yellow Jackets, the Panthers have lost 21 consecutive games on the road. That spells doom for them on Wednesday playing away from their home building against a team that is equally as determined to end a long losing streak. Georgia Tech is also a dangerous team on the defensive end of the floor. They can make up for their lackluster offense with their suffocating defense, which ranks 15th in the country in efficiency. That stout defense coupled with playing at home will ultimately lead to Pittsburgh’s undoing for their 10th consecutive conference outing. Take the Yellow Jackets in this game. |
