We’ve had a mixed bag of results already and are down a couple of units. The start of this season has been up and down, and we’ll eventually find our groove. With so many games a day, we’ve missed out on just a couple. However, that’s exactly why my wife doesn’t like when I bet parlays. That last leg always seems to bite you in the but. Let’s take a look at today’s college basketball parlay picks of the day that pays a nice +400.

College Basketball Parlay Pick Of The Day (November 9th)
Syracuse (+5.5) @ Indiana – 6:30 PM ET
Indiana is the clear talent edge on paper and has looked explosive in two early wins. However, those were against Eastern Illinois and Bellarmine, and the Hoosiers didn’t cover in either game. Syracuse has handled business against lesser competition, including a 102-49 dismantling of CCSU. Gerry McNamara has this team playing well. The Orange are getting 5.5 points, and I think they have enough perimeter experience to hang around in this one. Therefore, it’s the first leg on today’s college basketball parlay picks.
Minnesota @ Cincinnati (Moneyline) – 7:00 PM ET
The next leg is an interesting showdown between Minnesota and Cincinnati. This will be a measuring-stick game for both 2-0 teams after they easily beat some mid-major teams. Cincinnati has a new staff under Jerrod Calhoun but has looked efficient and physical at home in wins over America and Green Bay. Minnesota has been solid under Niko Medved with some returning pieces. However, the Bearcats have a clear edge on their home court. I’m staying away from the points here and just taking the Bearcats on the moneyline.
Wagner @ UConn (-39.5) – 7:00 PM ET
This may seem like a trap game, but I like the Huskies to cover. UConn just went on the road and knocked off number 16 Michigan. They also had a 40-point win over Gardner-Webb. Wagner is 0-2 and has looked completely outmatched, scoring just 50 at Boston College and 57 at Miami. The Seahawks rank near the bottom of Division 1 basketball in assist-to-turnover ratio and overall offensive efficiency. Dan Hurley doesn’t play nice with anyone, especially at home. UConn should easily cover this.
Parlay +400
Syracuse +5.5, Cincinnati ML, and UConn -39.5 all together brings us to a nice +400 parlay.
