Kentucky @ South Carolina (UK -5.5, 135.5) 6:30 PM
The Wildcats suffered two losses in Vegas to Utah and Ohio State back in December. But they have won 4 straight now by an average margin of victory of 9.5 ppg. This will only be their 2nd true road game of the season, with their first coming last week at Georgia, a Wildcats 9 point win. The Gamecocks have struggled at home this season, going 2-4 SU and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 home games. They are currently on a 3 game losing streak and are just 4-8 ATS in their last 12 games overall. The Wildcats smallest margin of victory this season was 7 and that was against 15th ranked Michigan State, so unless you think the Gamecocks can pull off an upset, which I don’t, I would lay the points.

Boston College @ Syracuse (SYR -11, 136.5) 6:30 PM
The Eagles have won 5 of their last 7 games, including upset victories over Notre Dame and Virginia. The problem is that 6 of their 7 losses on the season are by double digits including Saturday’s 19 point home loss to Georgia Tech. However, the Orange have been wildly over valued by Vegas this season. Despite coming off an upset win in Virginia, they are just 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games overall and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 home games.

Iowa State @ Baylor (BAY -9, 137.5) 8 PM
This is only the Cyclones 3rd true road game this season. They did have a three game stint in the Bahamas and are just 1-4 SU away from home this season. Against Top 25 teams, they are 1-4 SU and ATS. They are also 2-5 ATS following a SU win. The Bears are now ranked 3rd after two huge road victories at Texas Tech and at Kansas last week. They are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games. The Cyclones couldn’t handle Kansas, losing by 26, and this Baylor team is even better.
Bet: BAY -9
Confidence: 1 Unit
Result: Iowa State 55 Baylor 68
Auburn @ Alabama (AUB -1.5, 159) 9 PM
This is one we are actually going to bet against the trends. Alabama is 9-0 ATS in their last 9 games and 12-3 ATS overall this season. They are 5-1 ATS at home. However, they are still losing their share of games. They have a 14 point loss to Rhode Island, 15 point loss to Iowa State, 6 point loss to Florida and a 9 point loss to Kentucky. Now they play a rival who has not lost a game all season. Auburn has covered in 3 of their last 4 and have won 4 of their last 5 games by double digits. Go Tigahs.
Bet: AUB -1.5
Confidence: 2 Units
Result: Auburn 64 Alabama 83
Wichita State @ Temple (WS -4.5, 137) 9 PM
The Shockers are shocking people again this season, going 15-1 with their lone loss to West Virginia. They are currently on a 9 game winning steak 6-3 ATS and have beaten teams such as Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, VCU and Memphis. Meanwhile, the Owls have really struggled since the calander turned to 2020, losing 3 straight by an average of 14.7 points per loss. They are just 2-5 ATS at home this season. 14 of the Shcokers 15 wins have been by 5 points or more.

Stanford @ UCLA (UCLA -1, 133) 10 PM
The Cardinals have won 7 of their last 8 games and are 14-2 on the season. They are 12-4 ATS this season and have skyrocketed themselves into the Top 25. The Bruins have lost 5 of their last 6 games and are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games at home. Stanford is one of the top teams in the Pac-12 this season and should not have any problem putting away the Bruins.
