Finest Faculty Basketball Bets Immediately: Florida vs. Alabama, Maryland vs. Michigan & Extra

There shall be just a few NBA video games going down tonight, however none as compelling as the 2 High 10 SEC groups dealing with off.

Be our visitor in the event you discover higher worth or leisure—no method—in Jazz vs. Wizards. Nothing in opposition to Washington and Utah, however video games like Florida vs. Alabama are the place it’s at in March. Did you see Tennessee-Alabama on Saturday?

That’s not the one noteworthy faculty sport, and a few of the finest matchups made our faculty hoops “Finest Bets” listing for Wednesday.

No. 13 Maryland vs. No. 17 Michigan

Poor capturing and dreadful rebounding led to Michigan’s loss to Illinois over the weekend. The Wolverines often play first rate perimeter protection however allowed the Illini to sink 14 3-pointers. Whenever you permit that many and solely hit 5 of your personal, you’re going to get crushed—like they did.

They should get proper on this sport earlier than dealing with Michigan State with a share of the Massive Ten title on the road.

Maryland escaped Comfortable Valley with a win, rebounding from a three-point loss to Michigan State final week. It wasn’t the cleanest win for the Terrapins, nevertheless it was their eighth victory in 10 video games.

As for who wins, it’s a toss-up. Neither group has been enjoying lights out, which makes me suppose whoever makes the fewest errors will win. That being mentioned, since neither has been enjoying nice basketball currently, I don’t see both group lighting up the scoreboard.

Our choose: Beneath 154.5 (-115 at DraftKings)

No. 5 Florida vs. No. 7 Alabama

The Gators are heading to Tuscaloosa feeling fairly good, winners of eight of their final 10. Sure, the loss to Georgia was shocking and disappointing, however they rebounded effectively with an 89-70 win over Texas A&M. Their protection shall be put to the check in opposition to Alabama’s No. 1-ranked offense.

Alabama has been struggling, successful two of its final 5. The losses have been to the No. 1, No. 5, and No. 15 groups within the nation, however this was alleged to be a championship-caliber group. Whereas their top-ranked offense can win video games, their No. 338-ranked protection will make it loads tougher to take action.

The Tide dwell and die by the three, however Florida has probably the greatest perimeter defenses within the nation. So, I doubt Alabama will make it rain on this sport. Between that and the Gators getting extra second-chance factors due to their offensive rebounding, Florida will win outright.

Our choose: Florida ML at +130 (DraftKings)

No. 4 Tennessee vs. Ole Miss

Tennessee’s protection got here up large in opposition to Alabama’s offense final trip. It is going to get put to the check once more—considerably—in opposition to a great however not nice Ole Miss offense. Nonetheless, 79 factors might not do the trick in opposition to the Rebels because it did within the win over Alabama.

The Volunteers catch an Ole Miss group that’s hitting a low on the worst time of yr. Sure, the Rebels obtained a much-needed win over Oklahoma to cease the bleeding from a three-game shedding streak. However the Sooners are a mediocre group on their finest day, and Ole Miss solely received by three, 87-84.

The Vols have been enjoying good basketball currently, whereas Ole Miss has not. I do know it’s a house sport for the Rebels, however I’m shocked the unfold is just 2.5 factors.

Our choose: Tennessee -2.5 at -102 (DraftKings)
