Over 144.5

Analysis:

The Tigers have been on a scoring rampage, going 11-2 in their last 13 games, largely thanks to the return of former Ole Miss guard Daeshun Ruffin, who averages 16 points per game and has consistently scored in double figures, including 37 points against the Wildcats on January 25 in an 86-81 victory. They've averaged 86 points per game over their last four outings. Meanwhile, the 'Cook has also shown offensive strength, averaging 82 points per game in their recent matches, with Hampton transfer Trey Thomas stepping up in the absence of top scorer Brayon Freeman, averaging 23 points per game over the last nine games.

SF Austin -3.5

Analysis:

The recent name change from Texas A&M-Commerce to East Texas A&M has mirrored the basketball program's struggles, making them feel somewhat overshadowed this season with a poor record of 3-23. The Lions may prefer to remain under the radar as they rank among the lowest nationally in several categories, including a dismal scoring average of 63.5 points per game (351st) and a free throw shooting percentage of just 62.6% (353rd). With G Scooter Williams being the only player to average double figures at 11.6 points per game, the team's offensive woes are evident. In contrast, the Lumberjacks have recently found success, winning four straight games and five of their last six, largely thanks to UMass transfer G Keon Williams, who has averaged 18 points per game over the past five outings. This stark comparison between the Lions' struggles and the Lumberjacks' resurgence highlights the…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...

NCAAB: Coppin State Eagles @ South Carolina State Bulldogs - 7:30pm ET

Against the spread (ATS) - 👈  Click to get more info on tonights match up

SC State -16.5

Analysis:

The Coppin State Eagles are having a challenging season, sitting at 4-19 as they head into tonight’s game, with little to celebrate in their performance thus far. Their offensive struggles are clear, averaging only 60.5 points per game—ranking them just above Mississippi Valley State among the 355 Division I schools—and their three-point shooting percentage of 27.45% is notably low, placing them at 353rd nationally. In contrast, the Bulldogs have shown dominance recently, posting significant victories with margins of 23, 39 (against lower-tier teams), and 28 points in their last three games. Senior guard Omar Crosskey has emerged as a key player, contributing 43 points in two recent MEAC wins, and South Carolina State boasts a solid record of 13-5 against the spread in their last 18 games. As they prepare to face…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...

NCAAB: Incarnate Word Cardinals @ Texas Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros - 7:30pm ET

Money Line - 👈  Click to get more info on tonights match up

Texas Rio Grande Valley to win

Analysis:

UTRGV currently holds a slight edge over Incarnate Word in the Southland standings, being one game ahead, and is ranked about 40 spots higher nationally according to KenPom. Coming off what could be their best performance of the season after a 24-point victory over Houston Christian at home, the Vaqueros are in a strong position. In contrast, Incarnate Word is facing the challenge of a back-to-back road trip after suffering a heavy loss to Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. UTRGV boasts an impressive three-point shooting ability, ranking 9th in the nation with an average of 10.6 three-pointers made per game and holding the second highest number of attempts, while their next three-pointer will tie the school record for made shots in a single season. Notably, UTRGV also secured a seven-point victory at Incarnate Word on January 20, even while shooting just 3-for-14 from beyond the arc, indicating their overall effectiveness. Meanwhile, Incarnate Word has struggled on the road, with only two wins away from home, which highlights their vulnerability going into this matchup. This scenario underscores the contrasting trajectories of both teams, as UTRGV looks to capitalize on…[Click here to get the Full write up on this bet]...

Analysis:

The Blue Devils are leading the ACC with an impressive scoring average of 82 points per game, demonstrating their capacity to put up significant numbers, frequently reaching as high as 90 points. This creates a formidable challenge for Virginia, known for its strong defensive capabilities, as they have to find a way to contain the offensive talents of players like Cooper Flagg. Recently, Duke has gone 8-5 against the over in their last 13 games, including a solid 4-2 record over the last six, with games typically closing around an average of 141 points. In contrast, the Cavaliers have also excelled offensively, hitting the over in 7 of their last 8 and 11 of their last 14 games, with an impressive average margin of exceeding the point total by 11.75 points. The only game that stayed under in their last eight was by just half a point, indicating their consistent scoring ability.
