CBB is now taking over on Saturday’s with NFL being done after today. So this gives us a nice little ramp up to the heavy portion of the CBB season and we’re now into a good portion of the conference play season where things can be a little more predictable. Look for lots of home teams to do well today.
With a lot of good options today this sets up nicely as a 2-2-2-1-1 type build on your lineup constructions.
Marquette at St. Johns
Boy do I wanna hammer St. John’s here. For a betting play, the Johnnies are at the top of my target list. For DFS, we should be considering both ends here.
Tyler Kolek, David Joplin (Marquette)
RJ Luis, Joel Soriano (St. Johns)
Baylor vs Texas
RayJ Dennis (Baylor)
Dylan Disu, Tyrese Hunter (Texas)
I’m a fan of this Baylor team, but that loss on Wednesday (or whatever night it was) against Kansas State was a pure road choke job. They’ll be on the road a second time today and are about to drop two in a row because Texas, as messed up as they are, is even more desperate and is going to find a way to win this game. We could be in for a nice big OT thriller here too.
Miami (FL) at Syracuse
Nijel Pack, Kyshawn George (Miami)
JJ Starling (Syracuse), Judah Mintz (Syracuse)
Weird game. Miami isn’t playing well and Syracuse doesn’t know how to play well two games in a row. Could either be a let down spot which falls way short of that 159.5 total or we get lights out performances from the guards on both sides.
Other Teams I like …
Wake Forest: Cam Hildreth, Boopie Miller
Have to like the Deacs. They’re an easy pick to win against Louisville. The question is will it be Boopie or Hildreth. Logic says we should look for the 4th/5th options here agianst a bad team but Louisville’s defense and just all around play is so bad that the top guys will be impossible to not hit 30+. I like Hildreth to have a nice bounce back spot.
GUARDS
- Judah Mintz – Syracuse … Should be among the highest ownership spots today. In a game stack spot I would look at JJ Starling as another nice value.
- Kevin Miller / Cameron Hildreth – Wake
- Kyshawn George – Miami
- RayJ Dennis – Baylor
- Tyler Kolek – Marquette
- Meechie Johnson – South Carolina
FORWARDS
- Dylan Disu – Texas … Great price, nice spot vs Baylor who usually should struggle with anyone that can grab some defensive rebounds.
- Joel Soriano – St. John’s … Big man eat at home.
- Oso Ighodaro – Marquette
- Jalen Bridges – Baylor
- Andrew Carr – Wake Forest
VALUE
DK Did a fairly good job on the pricing today.
- JJ Starling – Syracuse
- Tyrese Hunter – Texas
- Steven Ashworth – Creighton
- Dale Bonner – Ohio State … If you want to go deep value
ONIONS! STUD OF THE DAY
Joel Soriano – St. John’s
TOP BETS
- St. John’s -1.5
- Penn State +9.5 … I like the home teams yes, but you give me 10 points for the road team in a Big 10 game and I am taking it almost every time.
- Syracuse -1 … Feels very gross, its gonna win.
- Texas ML + Arkansas ML Parlay
- Alabama/Tennessee under 158
