*5 Star NCAA BB TOP Play Total* The Long Beach State 49ers and UC Irvine Anteaters played a game earlier this year. The final score was 46-44. I had the under in that game, and I'm picking the under again here. UC Irvine has a ton of size down low that bothers Long Beach on offense. Both of these teams have slowed their tempo down in a big way from last year to this year. Defense should rule in this one. I had this lined at 125 points. The under is 10-1 in Irvine's last 11 home games vs. a team with a road win percentage of 40% or lower. The under is 10-1 in Irvine's last 11 games following an ATS win. A 20-2 angle. Take the under big!

*3 Star NCAA BB 100% Angle Total* The Pacific Tigers are really good at turning a game into a high scoring affair. Pacific shoots it well from long range, and their defense is terrible. The Tigers also foul a bunch, so Pepperdine should be at the line frequently here. These two played to a 76-66 game earlier this year. The shooting numbers weren't impressive and they only shot a combined 36 FT's in that game. The over is 5-0 in Pacific's last 5 following an ATS win. It is 4-0 in their last 4 road games. It is 4-0 in their last 4 road games vs. a team with a home win percentage of 60% or higher. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 vs. a team with a winning home record. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 following a win. A 21-0 angle. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Hidden GEM Total* It's very tough to slow down this Louisiana Tech team, especially on their home floor. LA Tech is piling up the points this year. Leading scorer Appleby is out with an injury now, but this offense hasn't slowed down a bit. Tulsa's defense isn't up to par, and this game should be played at a ridiculously fast pace. I had this one projected at 153. The over is 6-0 in LA Tech's last 6 home games vs. a team with a road win percentage of 40% or lower. The over is 10-1 in Tulsa's last 11 road games following 3 or more consecutive home games. A 16-1 angle. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals Takedown* The Texas State Bobcats are great at slowing a game down, and LA Monroe isn't about to battle them to speed the game up. These teams played earlier this year and the final was 61-36 Texas State. That game was played at LA Monroe. Texas State should hold Monroe to a very low number again here. I had this line projected at 117 points. Very ugly game here. Take the under.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Georgia State Panthers are one of the best mid-major teams in the country. With RJ Hunter and Ryan Harrow this team has two elite guards. Hunter is an exceptional outside shooter, and Harrow excels in getting him open shots and getting to the basket. Georgia State won 99-73 earlier this year when these teams met. Little Rock loves to push the tempo and that should push this one over the total. I had this at 152 points. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total PERFECTION* The Eastern Illinois Panthers lost 82-75 at Tennessee-Martin in their first meeting this year. Eastern Illinois should be able to get revenge against the OVC's worst defense here. Martin allows opponents to shoot almost 60% on two-point field goals. How bad is that? It's dead last in all of Division I basketball (351 teams). The over is 4-0 in E. Illinois' last 4 Thursday games. It is 4-0 in their last 4 following a win. The over is 4-0-1 in Martin's last 5 games. The over is 4-0-1 in their last 5 vs. a team with a win percentage of 40% or lower. The over is 4-0-1 in their last 5 OVC games. A 20-0 angle. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB UConn/Cincy Total* The Connecticut Huskies and Cincinnati Bearcats will sqaure off in a big conference game tonight. Cincinnati is now a top 10 team, and UConn is in the top 25. The Huskies have played some very low scoring games against top teams, and Cincinnati has been a brilliant under play for a long time. Cincinnati's aggressive in your face defense is really tough to get into a flow against. The under is 43-12 in Cincinnati's last 55 games overall. Take the under here.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total Value* UTSA is so bad defensively and they do such a great job getting to the line that the Roadrunners have some very high scoring games against almost everyone. Old Dominion is a decent offense and they should dominate the glass. The Monarchs are 22-10 to the over at home in their last 32 games. The Roadrunners will push the tempo plenty here. I have this game at 144 points. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Auburn Tigers and South Carolina Gamecocks are similar teams. They both like to push the tempo and get to the basket. Both teams are good at getting to the line. Both of these defenses rank at the top of the SEC in fouling. This game should have a bunch of trips to the foul line for both teams. I had this one at 152 points.

The over is 6-0 in Auburn's last 6 Wednesday games. The over is 5-0 in South Carolina's last 5 games following a loss. The over is 3-0-1 in their last 4 Wednesday games. The over is 6-1 in Auburn's last 7 road games. A 20-1 angle. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals Takedown* The Oklahoma Sooners are great at speeding up the game. Lon Kruger has his team running and gunning and playing very well this year. The Sooners should be the ones that set the pace here, because West Virginia has become a team that plays to the pace their opponent sets. Both teams are good at getting to the charity stripe as well. My numbers had this one at 163 points. Take the over in this contest.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total VALUE* The Delaware Blue Hens are the best team in the CAA this year, but they aren't as good as they were a couple weeks ago. Their point guard Jarvis Threatt is suspended and out of the lineup for off the court problems. He was the guy who made the engine run, and I expect Delaware's offense to slow down a bit without him. College of Charleston is a team that relies heavily on their defense and slowing the game down. They should be able to slow this game down more now that Threatt is out of the lineup. I like the value here. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Kent State Golden Flashes have had some trouble scoring against quality defenses. Lucky for them, they'll go up against the worst defense in the MAC tonight. Central Michigan gives up a boatload of points against everyone they play. Both of these teams like to score in transition when they can, so I expect to see an uptempo game here. My numbers had this game at 145 points. Take the over here.

*4 Star NCAA BB ACC Total* The Miami Hurricanes are playing at the slowest tempo of any team in the nation so far this season. Jim Larranaga's team is very good on the defensive end. It's also important to note that they are good at defending without fouling (which is very important especially with the new rules in college basketball this year). Pittsburgh is always a grind it out type of team that plays good defense. Open shots will be very tough to come by in this one. I had this game at 114 points. Take the under.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Butler Bulldogs and Marquette Golden Eagles got together a few weeks ago, and the game was about as ugly as you'll see. The total finished at 126 after an overtime. At the end of regulation, the score was 49-49. Marquette's zone was tough for Butler to handle. Butler slows the game down a lot this year, but their offense is so inefficient because they rely too heavily on one guy (Dunham). The under is 4-0 in their last 4 Big East games. The under is 4-0 in their last 4 overall. The under is 7-1 in their last 8 following an ATS win. A 15-1 angle here. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total Value* The Clemson Tigers may be as good as anyone in college basketball at keeping a game low scoring. Clemson plays excellent defense (top 5 in the country), and they definitely play slowly. This is a team that doesn't foul on defense, and they use up the shot clock on offense. Georgia Tech plays to the pace of their opponent far more than the average team. The Yellow Jackets offense isn't efficient enough to turn this into a high scoring contest. I had 115 points in this one. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Rutgers Scarlet Knights have really picked up their pace of late. Rutgers has been speeding up inside the conference, which is the opposite of what most teams do. Eddie Jordan wants this team to use their athleticism to score before the opponents defense is set. Memphis is all about running when they can. The Tigers will force a lot of turnovers here and get quick transition buckets. Both teams are pretty good at getting to the line, so I expect plenty of trips to the charity stripe. I had this one at 154. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Iowa State Cyclones and Oklahoma State Cowboys are all about getting out in transition and scoring early. Both of these teams are playing much faster than they did last year, and in last year's meetings the total finished at 154 and 163. I think this game gets into the 160's. No shortage of scoring options for either team in this one.

The over is 4-0 in OK State's last 4 Big 12 games. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 overall. The over is 6-1 in their last 7 vs. a team with a win percentage above 60%. A 14-1 angle. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Under Radar Total* These two teams met a few weeks ago and the final was 80-71. Hampton hit only 33% of their two point shots in that game. They aren't a great shooting team, but they should hit more than 33% from two point land tonight. Hampton is great at forcing the tempo, as they play faster than any other team in the conference. Morgan State generally runs when they have chances, and they'll have plenty of them tonight. I had this one at 143. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB 100% Angle Total* The Syracuse Orange are coming off an amazing win over Duke on Saturday night in the Carrier Dome. Syracuse is bound to be a little sluggish tonight, and this Syracuse team is playing slower than any Syracuse team in the past five years. This team packs in the zone and makes it really difficult for the opposition to do anything. Notre Dame is known for their burn clock style that they often use against good teams, and they'll be doing that here. Plenty of running the shot clock here.

The under is 5-0 in Notre Dame's last 5 Monday games. The under is 4-0 in their last 4 vs. a team with a winning record. The under is 4-0 in Syracuse's last 4 vs. a team with a winning record. The under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between these two. A 17-0 angle. Take the under.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Oakland Golden Grizzlies have been a very fast paced team in the past. Early this year, they experimented with slowing down the pace when they were short-handed. That experiment is over. Oakland has been flying up and down the court in their last few games. The total in their last four games has finished at 162, 152, 151, and 171. Wisconsin-Milwaukee likes to push the tempo when they can, and Oakland's defense is the worst in the league. Milwaukee put up 84 points on Oakland on the road earlier this year. That game finished at 159. The over is 5-0 in Oakland's last 5 following a win. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Hidden GEM Total* The UC Irvine Anteaters are a much improved team this year. They have a 7'2 center and a 7'6 center on the roster. Because of their size, Irvine is slowing the game down drastically this year compared to the past. Cal Poly has always been a slow it down type of team. I see a very slow grind it out type of game here. I had this at 118 points. The under is 4-0-1 in Cal Poly's last 5. The under is 4-0-1 in their last 5 conference games. The under is 7-1 in Irvine's last 8 Saturday games. A 15-1 angle. Take the under.

*5 Star NCAA BB Late Night TOP Play DOMINATOR* The Gonzaga Bulldogs and San Francisco Dons played to an abnormally low total earlier this year. Gonzaga won 69-41. San Francisco made 23% of their two point shots in that game and made just 40% from the free throw line. Safe to say I'm assuming they'll shoot much better at home, where they generally shoot very well. Gonzaga has outside shooter Gary Bell Jr. back from an injury now and their offense is more prolific. I made this total 144 points. Take the over big!

*3 Star NCAA BB SEC Total* These are two teams that are much better on the defensive end than they are offensively. The tempo here should be slow as well since both of these teams love to use up the shot clock and control the tempo. I had this line at 126 points. Look for a defensive battle that goes down to the wire. Take the under here.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* I had 120 points on this game. Texas State plays slower than anyone else in the conference and Western Kentucky's offense has been very inefficient of late. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total Value* The Cornell Big Red are one of the worst teams in college basketball this year. They haven't beaten a Division I team all season long. Cornell plays pretty fast, and they play no defense. Brown likes to play quickly as well, and they should put up a ton of points here. I had this lined at 152 points. Take the over in this contest.

*3 Star NCAA BB 100% Angle Total* The Columbia Lions slow the tempo down and play defense as well as anyone in the Ivy League. Yale is a team that typically plays to the pace of their opponent. Columbia's defense should make life difficult on Yale's shooters in this game. The last meeting between these two last season finished at 105 points. I had this one projected at 124.

The under is 5-0 in Columbia's last 5 road games. It is 5-0 in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. It is 8-0 in their last 8 Friday games. The under is 5-0 in their last 5 vs. a team with a home win percentage of 60% or higher. A 23-0 angle. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Late Night BAILOUT* The UC Irvine Anteaters have a 7'2 player and a 7'6 guy who is now the key to their team. Having this kind of size helps on defense and slows the game down. UCSB is always one of the slowest paced teams in the Big West. Should be a defensive battle here all the way.

The under is 4-0 in UCI's last 4 road games. It is 5-0 in their last 5 Thursday games. It is 5-0 in their last 5 following a loss. It is 9-1 in their last 10 road games vs. a team with a winning record. The under is 7-1 in their last 8 vs. the Big West. A 30-2 angle. Take the under.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals Takedown* The Pacific Tigers try to win by outscoring the opposition because they simply can't play defense. Pacific allows a bunch of points against good offenses, and I think BYU will get to 90 tonight. BYU plays at a very fast pace and the Cougars will get to the line a ton tonight against a Pacific team that fouls more than any other team in the conference. I had this game lined at 169 points. Take the over here.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total PERFECTION* The USC Trojans and Oregon State Beavers are both all about getting out and running. Neither of these teams can play much defense at all. Oregon State is shooting the three ball better than any other team in the Pac-12. USC is probably the worst defense in the Pac-12, and I see Oregon State putting up at least 80 points here. The tempo should allow USC to score as well.

The over is 4-0 in USC's last 4. The over is 5-0 in their last 5 road games. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 Pac-12 games. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 vs. a team with a winning record. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 vs. a team with a home winning record. A 21-0 angle here. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The UCLA Bruins and Oregon Ducks are the two fastest paced teams in the Pac-12. When these two teams get together there are going to be all kinds of possessions and a bunch of offense. Steve Alford has his young team really running the floor, and Oregon is all about running the floor since their halfcourt offense isn't very efficient. Tons of run out layups and easy buckets here.

The over is 4-0 in Oregon's last 4 home games vs. team with a road win percentage of 40% or less. The over is 5-0 in their last 5 vs. a team with a losing road record. The over is 5-0 in their last 5 home games. The over is 7-1 in their last 8 following an ATS win. A 21-1 angle. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB West Coast Total* Eastern Washington is a run and gun type of team. They are going to put up a ton of shots regardless of who they are playing against. North Dakota actually likes to run as well, so we have a combination of very fast paced teams in this one. Neither defense is any good at guarding without fouling. Expect lots of trips to the charity stripe in this one. I had this game at 163 points. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total Value* The Niagara Purple Eagles are the fastest paced team in the MAAC. Siena is doing a lot more running now that they have Jimmy Patsos as their new head coach. The first meeting between these teams this year finished at 155 points, and Niagara was 0-13 from three-point range in that game. You have to think they'll hit a few three's here, and the pace should still be very quick. I had 155 here too. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Under Radar Total* The UT Arlington Mavericks started the season out flying up and down the floor, but they've slowed down in a big way of late. That gives us value on the under when they play solid defensive teams. Western Kentucky is a very good defensive team that slows the game down considerably, especially at home. The Hilltoppers offense hasn't been good at all of late. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Providence Friars have slowed the game down in a big way this year. Ed Cooley is introducing some zone defense with his team, and it has worked very nicely thus far. Providence should shut down Marquette with the zone, because Marquette shoots 28% from long range in Big East play. Marquette's defense is their strength as well, and Providence's offense isn't very good. Should be an ugly and close game here. I had this lined at 129. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total Value* Tennessee-Martin is a team that is tough to figure out. They are one of the worst teams in a weak Ohio Valley Conference, but they still love to run and gun. They get blown out almost every game, but that doesn't slow them down a bit. Eastern Kentucky has the most efficient offense in the conference, and they should pile up the points here. Eastern Kentucky will avenge last year's loss at Tenn-Martin. This one should be fast-paced with little defense. I had 160 points here. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB 100% Angle Total* The Miami Hurricanes are playing slower than any other team in the nation right now. Coach Larranagga's team doesn't have the type of talent they've had in the past, so they've decided they need to slow it down to win. The Hurricanes defense has been great of late, but their offense is awful. Maryland likes to run, but they aren't efficient on offense. I think this will be a sloppy game with low shooting percentages. The under is 7-0 in Miami's last 7 road games. The under is 5-0 in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning record. The under is 4-0 in their last 4 Wednesday games. The under is 5-0 in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a home win percentage of 60% or higher. A 21-0 angle. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Iowa State/Kansas Total DOMINATION* The Iowa State Cyclones and Kansas Jayhawks both like to play at a very quick tempo. The first game between these two got to 148 points, and the shooting numbers were far below normal for both teams. Expect both teams to shoot it better this time around. Kansas' offense is starting to fire on all cylidners as Embiid and Wiggins really get rolling. The over is 6-1 in Kansas' last 7 home games. The over is 5-1 in their last 6 overall. The over is 5-1 in their last 6 following an ATS win. The over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between these two at Kansas. A 20-3 angle. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Late Night BAILOUT* The Boise State Broncos and Air Force Falcons have a lot in common. Both of them are much better offensively than they are on the defensive end. These teams have trouble slowing down just about anyone. They played a game that finished at 171 points last year. I had this number at 147 points. Look for this one to sail over the total. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Defensive Battle* The Richmond Spiders and St. Louis Billikens are both excellent defensive teams. Did you know that St. Louis is actually the number one rated team in the nation on defense so far this year? They can shut teams down. Richmond will slow the game down too. No reason to expect many points here. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The VCU Rams take on the Fordham Rams in this one. In this battle of the Rams, it should be VCU who comes out ahead. VCU's full court pressure will be too much for a Fordham team that simply has very little discipline. The pace here should be extremely fast, and that will allow for plenty of scoring opportunities. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Hidden GEM Total* The Virginia Tech Hokies have slowed down their tempo in a big way in ACC play. That makes me believe there is plenty of value on a team that used to be one that force the tempo. Boston College is one of the slowest teams in the conference, and the first meeting between these two couldn't even get to 120 points. The under is 7-0 in the Hokies last 7 games following an ATS loss. The under is 9-1 in their last 10 games overall. I had this number at 132. Take the under here.

*3 Star NCAA BB Mac Total* The Central Michigan Chippewas have a way of making games high scoring with their horrendous defense. Central Michigan is going to give up a bunch of points in every game they play in the MAC. Ohio's offense has struggled at times this year, but they shouldn't struggle tonight. I had this one at 139. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total Value* The James Madison Dukes and Northeastern Huskies get together in a CAA battle tonight. This wasn't a game I had originally been expecting to play the over on, but with a number set this low I couldn't pass it up. Both of these teams are no better than mediocre on defense, so the total here should certainly be higher than this. Take the over based on the value.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Oklahoma State Cowboys have one of the best teams in the nation. Oklahoma has been one of the biggest surprises to me this year. Lon Kruger is doing a great job with this inexperienced team. Oklahoma pushes the tempo as much as anyone in the Big 12, and Oklahoma State is completely comfortable playing in transition all game long. I don't see anything slowing the pace down in this one. Both teams get to the line often and shoot it well from the charity stripe too. I think this one gets close to 170. The over is 5-0 in OK State's last 5 vs. a team with a winning record. The over is 6-1 in Oklahoma's last 7 vs. a team with a winning record. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 meetings. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* Norfolk State and Savannah State rarely played lined games, but tonight they'll be on television so we get a line for this matchup. There is often value in betting these types of games, since the oddsmakers know less about these teams since they generally aren't playing lined games. Both teams like to slow the game down and Savannah State has one of the best defenses in the conference. Look for poor shooting numbers and a slow tempo here. The under is 5-0 in Norfolk State's last 5 road games. Take the under.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Kent State Golden Flashes and Toledo Rockets both like to play uptempo baksetball this year. Toledo has the best offense in the MAC, and one of the worst defenses. Kent State is weak defensively as well. It's hard to imagine either defense having much luck slowing down the opposition in this one. I had this game at 154 points. Take the over in this contest.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Cincinnati Bearcats have been an absolute under machine over the last couple years. This is a team that grits down and plays great defense, but they aren't efficient at all on offense. Cincinnati is the much better team in this game, so I expect them to slow the game down and play on their terms. Temple doesn't have the offensive firepower to put up a bunch on Cincinnati. The under is 42-10 in Cincinnati's last 52 games overall! The under is 7-0 in their last 7 Sunday games. The under is 7-0 in their last 7 vs. the AAC. A 56-10 angle. Take the under.

*5 Star NCAA BB TOP Play Total* The Harvard Crimson are clearly the best team in the Ivy League. Harvard going to beat a lot of people badly in the Ivy League this year. They have the number one defense in the league. Dartmouth is without star Gabas Maldunas for this game. He was hurt in the team's last game. He averaged 11.2 points and 8.5 boards per game. Without Maldunas, the Big Green will be completely lost on offense. I don't think they'll be able to top 55 points here. Dartmouth will slow the game even more without him as well. Very slow tempo in this one. The under is 5-0 in Harvard's last 5 games. The under is 3-0 in their last 3 road games. The under is 3-0 in Dartmouth's last 3 games. Take the under big!

*4 Star NCAA BB Late Night BAILOUT Total* The UNLV Rebels and Fresno State Bulldogs already played one this year. That game finished at 75-62, just short of this posted total. The two teams shot the ball horribly. UNLV won, but hit only 1 for 16 from 3 point range. Both of these teams love to get out in transition and score quickly without having to set up the offense. I can't imagine the teams shooting as bad as they did last time. The over is 5-1 in UNLV's last 6 home games. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Pac-12 Total* The Oregon Ducks can push the tempo of the game about as well as anyone in the nation. Oregon's offense hit a speed bump last game against Oregon State, but I expect them to get it going again here. Washington likes to get out and run as well, and the Huskies score in bunches at home. I had this number at 163 points. Take the over in this late game.

*4 Star NCAA BB Late Night BAILOUT* The UCLA Bruins are a good "over" team because they love to play fast and they have a terrific offense. Stanford isn't quite as quick, but to stay in this game they are going to have to score a lot of points. UCLA has topped 100 points three times this year already, and I could see them getting to 85 or 90 here. Stanford has two great scores in Powell and Randle and they'll find ways to score in this one. The over is 3-0-1 in Stanford's last 4 games. The over is 3-0-1 in their last 4 Pac-12 games. The over is 4-1 in UCLA's last 5 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* Loyola Marymount and Pacific are both teams that prefer to play at a very quick pace. These two coaching staffs have worked hard to get their teams playing faster this season. This should be a perfect chance to see lots of transition opportunities for both teams. Neither defense is any good. I had this total at 153 points. The over is 4-0 in Pacific's last 4. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 WCC games. The over is 6-1 in their last 7 home games. Take the over here.

*5 Star NCAA BB TOP Play Total* The Cal State Northridge Matadors aren't as fast paced as they used to be. Reggie Theus has slowed the team down a bit in his first year as a coach there. UC Irvine is one of the slowest teams in the Big West, largely because of their amazing interior size and strength. The Anteaters are the best team in the Big West, and they should control this game. I had this total at just 136 points.

The under is 5-0 in Irvine's last 5 home games. The under is 6-0 in their last 6 Big West games. The under is 4-0 in their last 4 Thursday games. The under is 4-0 in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a road winning record. The under is 12-1 in their last 13 following a win. A 31-1 angle. Take the under big!

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals Takedown* The Houston Cougars and Memphis Tigers generally score quite a few points when they get together. These are both athletic teams that like to get out and run and score before the defense gets set. I don't see that changing in this matchup. Memphis is a good team, but they aren't good when they get bogged down in the halfcourt. I had this game at 149 points. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Under the Radar Total* The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers are having some serious offensive issues. Their offense has been stagnant of late. They are still playing good defense and staying in games though. Monroe is one of the slowest teams in the Sun Belt, and this game should be played at a slow tempo. I had this number at 123 points. Take the under here.

*3 Star NCAA BB Hidden GEM Total* The Southeast Missouri State Redhawks play an uptempo style of basketball, and they are generally very efficient on offense. They are especially good offensively on their home court. Edwardsville is a team that generally plays to the tempo of their opponent, because they aren't a very good team. The Redhawks should control this game and put up a big number. The over is 4-0 in SEMO St's last 4 vs. a team with a losing record. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a losing record. The over is 4-0 in their last 4 meetings. The over is 10-2 in the Redhawks last 12 home games. A 22-2 angle. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Youngstown State Penguins are good at turning up the tempo in a game. They are good offensively, but not good on the defensive end. Valpo is a much worse defensive team than they typically have been. Both teams should get second chance opportunities here too. I had this one at 152. Take the over here.

*4 Star Florida/Bama Total* The Florida Gators are a very good team, but their defense is what makes them great. Florida slows the game down and uses ball control and defense to win tough games. Alabama is consistently one of the slowest paced teams in the SEC. I had this number at 119 points. Look for a low scoring close game here. Take the under in this one.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total Value* The Old Dominion Monarchs are a team I've had my eye on closely of late. They have been slowing down their tempo in a big way. Jeff Jones is their new coach and he always stalled when at American University. It looks like his style is starting to work at Old Dominion as well. Southern Miss doesn't push the tempo at all. I had this number at 124. Take the under here.

*4 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* The Oakland Golden Grizzlies are awful on the defensive end. They might be the worst defense that Green Bay sees all year. Green Bay is an efficient offense that could easily hang 85 or 90 points here. Oakland likes to push the tempo and get up a lot of shots from long range, and they have some very good shooters. I made this total 158 points. Look for this one to easily get over the total. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* There are 351 teams in Division I college basketball this year. Miami is playing at the slowest pace of all of those teams so far this season. Duke has slowed down their tempo quite a bit during ACC play. Duke hasn't looked good at all on the road (they only scored 59 at Clemson). Miami isn't good offensively, but their defense is tremendous. I expect this to be a hard fought low scoring game.

The under is 7-0 in Miami's last 7 games vs. a team with a win percentage of 60% or higher. The under is 5-0 in their last 5 after allowing 50 points or less last game. The under is 5-0 in their last 5 following an ATS win. The under is 5-0 in their last 5 ACC games. The under is 10-1 in their last 11 overall. A 32-1 angle. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Maryland Terrapins are the fastest paced team in the ACC right now. Maryland is weak on the defensive end as well. NC State has had some offensive issues, which is why this total is set low. I do expect the Wolfpack offense to be able to get going against this defense though. Maryland will force the tempo and their defense will give up plenty of points. I made this one 148 points. The over is 4-0-1 in Maryland's last 5 road games. The over is 3-0-1 in their last 4 road games against a team with a winning record. The over is 3-0-1 in their last 4 vs. a team with a home win percentage of 60% or more. A 10-0 angle. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals Takedown* Marist was a team that liked to get out and run last year. That has changed in a big way this season. Marist now prefers to slow the game down and try to win with ball control and defense. St. Peter's is the slowest paced team in the conference, and they'll be happy to play in a stall ball type of game. I made this total 122 points. Look for the slow tempo keep this under. Take the under here.

*3 Star NCAA BB 100% Angle Total* The Oregon Ducks and Oregon State Beavers both like to run and gun. There are going to be lots of possessions and plenty of shots in this one. Oregon's offense is better than last year, and their defense is worse without a shot blocker in the interior. Oregon State never plays much defense, but they can shoot it well. The over is 6-0 in Oregon's last 6 Sunday games. The over is 6-0 in Oregon's last 6 following a loss. A 12-0 angle here. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Totals TKO* Green Bay has picked up the tempo in a big way this year, and they are the much better team here so I expect them to control the pace. UIC's defense is awful. The Flames can score it pretty well on their home floor. I had this one pegged at 146. Plenty of value here. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total DOMINATION* The Iowa Hawkeyes have been able to push the tempo in every game this year. They sped up both Wisconsin and Ohio State, which is tough to do. This Hawkeyes team is super efficient on offense. Minnesota is going to have to score plenty to stay in touch here. I had this one lined at 153. The over is 7-0 in Iowa's last 7 following an ATS win. The over is 3-0-1 in Minnesota's last 4 following an ATS win. A 10-0 angle here. Take the over.

*3 Star NCAA BB Late Night BAILOUT Total* The Stanford Cardinal have plenty of scoring options. Dwight Powell is one of the best big guys in the Pac-12 and Chaisson Randle is one of the league's best scorers from the guard spot. Washington and Stanford both like to run the floor and get up lots of shots. No one will slow this game down. I had this one set at 150 points. Take the over.

*4 Star NCAA BB Hidden GEM Total* The Long Beach State 49ers and Cal Poly Mustangs are both teams who love to slow the game down. Long Beach State has totally changed the way they play of late. Dan Monson's team doesn't have enough scoring firepower to win high scoring games, so they walk it up the floor. Cal Poly has been a stall ball team for several years now. The under is 5-1 in Long Beach's last 6 Big West games. The under is 4-0 in Cal Poly's last 4 vs. a team with a losing record. A 9-1 angle. Take the under.

*4 Star NCAA BB Total Value* The Louisiana Monroe Warhawks and South Alabama Jaguars both prefer to slow the game down. Monroe shot the lights out in their last game, but their offense has been inefficient much of the season. South Bama has been horrible offensively, but they are very good on defense. I made this number 125. The under is the play here. Take the under.
