Underdog Fantasy College Basketball Picks February 6
Matt Dewoskin Underdog Fantasy College Basketball Pick Em Record (Est 11/4/2024)
All Pick Em Selections: 129-108-3
Perfect 3-0 Pick Em Entries: 14-66
Michael Rataj Higher Than 20.5 points
Washington State pays a visit to Corvallis, OR for a match up with Oregon State. Opponents playing Wazzu average 75.7 points per game this year. That’s 254th in the nation this year. The Cougars also allow opponents to shoot 52.0% from inside the arc this year. That’s 226th in the nation. This is a great spot for Beavers forward Michael Rataj.
Rataj comes into this game averaging 19.9 points per game at home this season. He’s gone higher than 20.5 points in three straight games at home.
Rataj has leveled up his offensive game for the Beavers this year. He struggled against Washington State last year, but he’s found a few post moves, and can get to the free throw line. This is a chalky play, but Rataj should be able to get what he wants on offense against the Cougars.
Ben Gregg Higher Than 5.5 Rebounds
Loyola Marymount pays a visit to The Kennel for a game against Gonzaga. The Lions allow opponents to grab 38.0 rebounds per game this year. That’s 324th in the nation this year. Bulldogs big man Ben Gregg is going to eat in this match up.
Gregg enters this game averaging 6.4 rebounds per game at home. He also faced Loyola Marymount on the road this year, and snagged seven boards against the Lions. Gregg has also gone higher than 5.5 rebounds in 13 out of 23 games played this year.
Loyola Marymount is a bit soft on the inside, and Gregg definitely isn’t. As long as he doesn’t get into foul trouble, this play is a lock. Make sure you go higher on Gregg’s rebounds total in your Underdog Fantasy college basketball entry.
Augustas Marciulionis Higher Than 2.5 Rebounds
St. Mary’s heads to San Francisco for a match up against the Dons tonight. We’ve got a trend that we’ve got to follow. Gaels guard Augustas Marciulionis has gone higher than 2.5 rebounds in each of his last three games against San Francisco. That stretch also included a nine-rebound game at this very spot.
San Francisco enters this game allowing opponents to grab 34.1 rebounds per game. That’s 155th in the nation.
Marciulionis averages 3.0 rebounds per game on the road this year. He’s also gone higher than 2.5 rebounds in 10 out of 23 games played this year.
This is a solid trend to follow, and Marciulionis is capable of racking up boards. Let’s ride with the hot hand, and go higher on Marciulionis’ rebounds total in today’s Underdog Fantasy college basketball entry.
