Stanford -2 (-110), 2 units
Stanford/Indiana under 133 (-110), 2 units
Indiana’s offense won’t be as bad as yesterday, but their problems aren’t going to be fixed in 24 hours. Stanford went toe to toe with UNC after convincingly beating Alabama. Stanford held both of those teams in the 60’s and Indiana is less explosive than either one. Plus this is the third game in three days which could help the under. GL!

TCU/Northwestern State under 140.5 (-110), 2 units
There are several other games I am looking at, but I want to see if I can get a better number on a couple. One I want to take is Boston College, however the line has dropped to 5.5. I'm going to wait and see if there is a little Florida support that comes in and gets this number back up to 6 or more before I take anything.

UConn -1 (-110), 3 units
I'm high on UConn this year. I think they are the third best team in the Big East behind Villanova and Creighton and are poised to have a strong year. Hurley is a strong recruiter which helped UConn achieve the 23rd ranked class for this year. He has already gotten three players in the top 81 for next year's class which has them ranked 11th at the moment. UConn is working its way back to prominence and I like their mix this year. James Bouknight is their most NBA ready player who is a little under the radar due to the talented guards at Creighton as well as Gillespie at Villanova. They also are extremely deep in the frontcourt with their top 4 big men returning from last year and the addition of two more freshmen including Adama Sanogo who is raw but has flashed in the early going. They got two transfers at guard to beef up their backcourt depth in R.J. Cole from Howard and Tyrese Martin from Rhode Island. I see a program who is on the rise after middling in the AAC the last few seasons. USC had a nice win Tuesday night over BYU and I expect them to play UConn tough. But I think the Huskies are a little better. And if this game is nip and tuck at the end, USC's free throw shooting could do them in as they only shot 56% against BYU.

Louisiana Monroe/LA Tech under 140 (-110), 2 units
Montana -1.5 (-110), 2 units
I am still waiting on Boston College to see if the line goes back up at all. I'm also looking into the Arizona State/Cal game. Arizona State opened up as 7.5 point favorites and the line has dropped to 5.5 or 6. I will have one more update in a couple hours or so. Good luck everyone, let's have a big night.

Arizona State -6 (-110), 2 units
I'm having second thoughts on BC and might stay away. I can make a case for both sides which probably means I shouldn't get involved. I waited to take Arizona State to see how low the line would get, but it is starting to move back up so I'm going to jump on it now. That's probably it for me tonight. GL guys.

Despite USC being in the bonus 8 minutes into both halves and UConn scoring 3 points in the final eight and a half minutes, they pulled it out. UConn hasn't had a lot of practice time due to having to quarantine right before the season started, which means their offense will take a little time to gel. But there is a lot of potential there and most importantly, they covered the number.

UT Arlington +5 (-110), 2 units
Virginia -20 (-110), 2 units
Saint Peter's/Maryland under 132.5 (-115), 1 unit- live line
I meant to post the Maryland under before the game started and got stuck at work. So I'll post the live line which is only one point off from where the total closed.

Baylor +3 (-110), 3 units
I don't think Scruggs will be 100% today for Gonzaga. He came back into their game against WVU, but he only had 4 points and clearly wasn't himself. Even if he is, I think this game should be around a pick so I like getting the 3 points with Baylor. 2.5 is ok too, but I would try to get a 3 if you can. Gonzaga has struggled against top five teams during their run of dominance. They are 2-9 all time against teams ranked in the top 2 and 2-6 under Mark Few. They have a reputation of dominating lesser teams and coming up short against the real mettle in college basketball. We have seen that in the tournament year after year. Gonzaga is very good, don't get me wrong. They should run through everyone else on their schedule except for Iowa in a couple weeks. But I was impressed with Baylor's gameplan against Illinois and I expect them to utilize the same strategy today. Slow the game down, play defense and limit their turnovers. This should be a tight game and I like grabbing the 3. Good luck.
