CBB (7-6, +0.03 units):
UNC Wilmington +2.5 (-110), to win 1 unit
These lower level teams are more even than what people think and this is a big spot for UNC Wilmington at home. Charleston has a lightning pace but UNC Wilmington can bring the heat on defense at home. Both teams are on tremendously long winning streaks and they’re undefeated at home – I think this one ends closely.
Alabama wins (-110), to win 1.5 units
The Crimson Tide are on a tear right now, blitzing opposing defenses with their fast-paced offense and diverse ways they can score. They’re a much better 3-point shooting team and they defend it well, too, which could be the achilles heel for the Razorbacks tonight. Alabama’s strength of schedule has also way been more formidable. Sure, Arkansas has the home floor and this is a rivalry, but Bama is the better team. If they show up with energy, they win.
UCONN/Marquette under 147 (-110), to win 1 unit
This game is more evenly matched, especially since it’s on Marquette’s home floor, and while UCONN clearly has the better defense, I expect them to be feisty and more energized on that side of the floor. Marquette puts up points against the lowly defenses of the Big East but will not experience the same success tonight.
