Indiana vs Notre Dame (IU -3, 142) 12 PM
The Hoosiers struggled to get passed the Cornhuskers at home in their last matchup and now get the Irish in the Crossroads Classic. Despite their 8-3 record, the Irish have no looked great. They have a home loss to Boston College and needed overtime to beat Toledo at home a few weeks ago. The rank 260th in shooting percentage compared to IU who is ranked 16th. I think the Hoosiers hit more shots late and once again get to the line to seal the win.
Bet: IU -3

Texas @ Providence (PROV -1, 133.5) 2 PM
We will keep going against the Friars as long as they let us. They just lost by 32 at home to the Gators. They have failed to cover in 9 of their last 10 games including 7 straight. Now the 9-1 Longhorns and winners of five straight come in to town and are an underdog? This spread is wrong and the Longhorns will cruise.
Bet: TEX +1
Confidence: 4 Units
Result: Texas 48 Providence 70
Purdue vs Butler (BUT -1.5, 117.5) 2:30 PM
In game two of the Crossroads classic are two teams out to prove a point and gain some respect. The Boilermakers have been up and down all season, as characterized by their 29 point home win against 5th ranked Virginia and their 14 point home loss to unranked Nebraska. Butler has just one loss on the season, a 1 point road loss to Baylor. They are 8-3 ATS this season and are outperforming Vegas expectations. Defensively, they are holding teams to 54.5 ppg which ranks 3rd in the country. That’s good enough for me.
Bet: BUT -1.5
Confidence 1 Unit
Result: Butler 70 Purdue 61
Today’s Record: 1-2
All-Time Record: 28-19 (59.6%)
