College Basketball Preview, Picks, and Best Bets for November 15

 

Matt Dewoskin ATS College Basketball Picks Record (Est.November 2, 2026)

All Selections: 18-21
Perfect 3-0 Cards: 2-11

Dartmouth at Boston

Start Time: 1:00 PM EST

Dartmouth enters this game with a 3-1 overall record and a 2-1 mark against the spread. Dartmouth has won and covered in both of the road spots the Big Green have played.

Boston comes into this matchup with a 3-1 overall mark and a 2-1 record ATS. The Terriers have won and covered their only home game that had a betting line this year.

The handicap for this one is simple. This has been a home team series for the past four years. Each of the last four matchups played in this series has been won by the home team. Also, the home team has covered in each of the last four games played between Dartmouth and Boston. Let’s ride with the trend and lock up Boston laying the short number at home.

Best Bet: Boston -2.5

Missouri at Marquette

Start Time: 2:30 PM EST

Missouri comes into this matchup with a 2-1 overall mark and a 2-1 record ATS. The Tigers’ only loss and failure to cover came on the road at St. Louis.

Marquette enters this game with a 2-1 overall record and a 2-1 mark ATS. The Golden Eagles lost and failed to cover at Michigan.

This game will be played at the United Center in Chicago. This is a much easier travel spot for the Marquette fan base, and the Golden Eagles should have the crowd.

Marquette has a clear advantage on the defensive end and on the boards. Missouri will be as good as freshman point guard Jason Crowe Jr. allows them to be. He’s looked really good against low-majors, but struggled against St. Louis. Marquette is better defensively than St. Louis and should make life difficult for Crowe.

The Golden Eagles are also due for a bounce back after getting wrecked by Michigan in Ann Arbor. Marquette struggled against Michigan, but face a much better matchup on Sunday. The Golden Eagles should limit scoring, win the rebounding battles, and have the crowd carry them to a win. Let’s lock in Marquette to get the win and the cover in Chicago today.

Best Bet: Marquette -1.5

Creighton vs Iowa

Start Time: 3:00 PM EST

Creighton enters this matchup with a 2-1 overall record and a 0-3 mark ATS. The Blue Jays are off a loss and a failure to cover against Kansas State at the Octagon of Doom.

Iowa comes into this game with a 2-1 overall mark and a 1-2 record ATS. The Hawkeyes lost and failed to cover against Virginia Tech.

This game will be played at Casey’s Center in Des Moines, IA. The crowd will be very pro-Iowa.

Iowa has been over 76 points in each of their first three games, and we just watched Creighton allow 89 points to a rebuilding Kansas State team. The Hawkeyes should be able to score here.

Creighton’s advantage is forcing turnovers and generating offense in transition, but Iowa plays at a slow pace and looks to limit possessions. The stylistic matchup also favors the Hawkeyes here.

It’s also expected that Iowa center Andrew McKeever will make his season debut against Creighton. McKeever has yet to play this season due to a back injury, but Iowa coach Ben McCollum indicated that McKeever should play. Let’s roll with Iowa to get the win and the cover in Des Moines.

Best Bet: Iowa -3.5
