NEVERMIND – CORONA
St. Johns vs Creighton (-5.5) 12 PM
The Bluejays are 10-2 SU and ATS in their last 12 games, but one of their losses was a 20-point loss at St. John’s on March 1st. While St. John’s has improved lately, going 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games, 8 of the Bluejays last 10 wins have come by double digits. I like the consistency of Creighton a little more than St. John’s.
Michigan (-3) vs Rutgers 12 PM ***BEST BET
It appears we can bet on Rutgers games nowadays, and if we had bet on them to cover in their last 3 games, we would have won. Still, they are just 6-7 SU in their last 13 games which includes 2 wins against Purdue and wins against Northwestern and Nebraska. The Wolverines are 8-4 SU and ATS in their last 12 games which includes an 8-point win at Rutgers as a 4-point underdog. In games they win, they are 16-3 ATS and in games they lose, they are 0-12 ATS, meaning the moneyline is obsolete. Take the experience of the Wolverines to cover this small spread.
Ohio vs Akron (-3.5) 12 PM
It’s my favorite team to bet on. No, not Akron this time! The Bobcats are 14-4 ATS in their last 18 games, and have covered in 7 straight. The Zips are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games. Not so fast again! The Zips have still won 8 of their last 9 and while the Bobcats have covered in 14 of 18, they are only 9-9 SU in those games. This spread is more reasonable to the Zips to cover this time! I advise just staying away from this one like it’s the plague, or……
Clemson vs Florida State (-6.5) 12:30 PM
Despite the Tigers covering yesterday, they weren’t all that impressive. Sure, the Tigers upset the Seminoles back on Leap Day, but that rarely happens anyways (like once every 4 years). The Seminoles crushed them by 19 earlier in the season, and I see this one going more like that game. Seminoles will be more focused and will get a big win here.
Texas Tech vs Texas (+7) 12:30 PM
The Longhorns had won and covered in 5 straight games before getting obliterated at home to Oklahoma State by 22 points in their season finale. While Texas Tech has the experience after last years tournament run, they are just 2-5 SU and ATS in their final 7 games, including a 10-point loss at home to the Longhorns. I think the Red Raiders are the better team overall, but 7 points seems like a lot for a team that has not been playing all that great lately.
Alabama vs Tennessee (+1.5) 1 PM
The Tide are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games and are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite. The Vols are just 9 games removed from beating Kentucky in Rupp, yet are an underdog to Alabama? I’ll take the points.
