College Basketball Picks March 2nd
Kansas at Baylor (-5.5) (O/U 144.5)
Kansas seems a little juicy after that ugly loss at home, eh? Not so fast! I am expecting the public to be all over the Jayhawks in this one as a rebound from their BYU loss, but I love what I am seeing from Baylor as of late.
They recently took the number one team in the nation to overtime and were one free throw away from winning. They followed that with a very impressive win on the road against TCU and looked very solid doing so.
I expect this matchup to be close to the start, but Baylor will pull away over the last few minutes of game time and cover this number at home
The Pick: Baylor -5.5
Tennessee at Alabama (-3.5) (O/U 169.5)
Last week, Alabama and Kentucky played a game that rivaled the NBA in scoring. Today, we see another very high total, and the Alabama offense has every reason to soar over this number.
Tennessee is the 2nd best team in the country (in my opinion), and they have a very strong defense. The Vols will to what they can to dictate the tempo of this game but it will be enough to keep the scoring down to stay under this number. I’m riding with the under in Tuscaloosa.
The Pick: Under 169.5
