College basketball is in full swing! Teams are getting their seasons underway, and we’re starting to see a real groove from some of them. Even though it’s only been a couple of games for most teams, we’re starting to see who’s reliable and who isn’t. Every day we’re targeting a parlay. Today’s parlay is just another two-teamer. Let’s take a look at today’s college basketball parlay picks of the day!

College Basketball Parlay Pick Of The Day (November 12th)
Tennessee Tech @ Indiana (-25.5) – 6:30 PM ET
The first game in our college basketball parlay picks of the day is between Tennessee Tech and Indiana. The Hoosiers have opened up 3-0. They barely beat Syracuse, but had no issues with Eastern Illinois and Bellarmine. I’m not sure this Indiana team is very good. However, their superior size, depth, and efficiency at home should be fine for the mid-major Tennessee Tech team.
Tennessee Tech sits at 2-1 in the Southern Conference and faces a clear talent gap against a Big 10 program that has already covered this type of spread. The Hoosiers control tempo and force turnovers, which should open the margin beyond 25.5. Indiana didn’t cover 30.5 vs. Bellarmine or 34.5 vs. Eastern Illinois. They also failed to cover against Syracuse. Therefore, the 25.5 feels discounted, so we’re taking it.
Mercer @ West Virginia (-27.5) – 7 PM ET
The second leg of our college basketball parlay is in the Mercer at West Virginia game. The Mountaineers have started 2-0 after dismantling Niagara 91-46 and Stetson 91-54. They are averaging more than 40 points of separation while holding opponents well under 50. Freshman guard Miles Sadler has sparked the offense, and the defense continues to limit easy looks.
Mercer sits at 2-2 and has already had a lopsided loss on the road against Virginia Tech. They lost that game by 29 points. I think this West Virginia team is better than Virginia Tech. They’ll protect their home court in Morgantown and have no problem winning by 30+ points.
The Parlay
These two legs form a nice and straightforward parlay for us. Indiana and West Virginia can both handle inferior opponents at home. The combo of these two pays +250. It’s not too greedy, it’s not too thin, and it’s right where we want to be.
