Today’s Bets

We’ve got a full day of hoops to play around with so we’re going to rapid fire a ton of bets. Could be a make or break day for the record.

Houston -21 vs. Towson

Houston has been bludgeoning teams and this Towson group simply cannot score. Might get ugly quick.

Louisiana Tech -10 vs. Louisiana Monroe

Daniel Batcho is back for the Bulldogs. He’s amazing and will take this team to a whole new level. Lay the points in the rivalry game.

Auburn -14 vs. Notre Dame

Auburn should probably be in the top-25. Their guards are going to have a field day with this Notre Dame backcourt. Lay the points with the better team.

Missouri -2 vs. Minnesota

This line makes no sense to me. Missouri is far and away the better team here. We’re writing off their performance against Memphis as a fluke and their group of experienced old guards will get it done at The Barn.

Texas Southern/Virginia Under 129.5

Texas Southern’s offense may not score 40 in this one. We’ll bet that Virginia doesn’t put up 90.

UCF -9.5 vs. Cal State Fullerton

Bounce back spot at home for UCF against a bad Cal State Fullerton team. UCF should have no problem forcing turnovers on a team that ranks 332nd in turnover percentage.
