    BYU -1.5
    -115
    Spread
    Picked: Feb 9 @ 4:04pm

    Analysis

    BYU's offensive identity is built on high-volume three-point shooting; they rank in the top 5 nationally in 3-Point Attempt Rate. Baylor's defense ranks 113th in eFG% defense and struggles specifically defending the 3-point arch (ranked 222nd). For a team like BYU, which thrives on spacing and ball movement, Baylor's defensive scheme is a matchup nightmare. Baylor ranks 44th overall in KenPom, driven largely by a defense that has fallen off a cliff. This creates a massive opportunity for BYU, which ranks 22nd overall with the 10th-best offense in the country. The Cougars are coming off a loss to Houston, where they shot just 41% from the field. I'm looking to buy low after their 0-8 ATS slump and four consecutive straight-up losses.

    Analysis

    FanDuel. I believe this line is understating Jose Alvarado’s role for the Knicks. Even if OG Anunoby (questionable) plays, the spark-plug guard should be in store for a 20-26 minute role off the bench, against a Pacers team that runs small. The Brooklyn native will be playing his first game as a Knick in Madison Square Garden, and it’s an easy argument to make that he’ll be looking to make a splash. The Pacers play with tempo, and allow the seventh most points + assists to opposing point guards. I’d bet this to over 11.5.

    DUKE -15.5
    -110
    Spread
    Picked: Feb 9 @ 4:17pm

    Analysis

    I'm taking the low-hanging fruit here. It's not just that Duke is coming off a loss to UNC, it's how they lost. The Blue Devils controlled most of that game before going ice cold in the final seven minutes. Duke gets the perfect opponent to take out its frustrations. Pitt is coming off losses of 20 (Virginia) and 19 (SMU). This is also a bad matchup for the Panthers. Duke should score at will near the basket versus a Pitt defense that ranks last in the ACC in two-point percentage and create a lot of turnovers that lead to easy buckets. I never lay this many points on the road in conference play but this feels like a Duke blowout win. Play up to -16.5.

    Analysis

    Currently sitting square on the NCAA Tournament bubble and with a difficult remaining schedule, this is a must win game for Oklahoma State. I'm willing to toss their disastrous performance in Tucson against my Wildcats on Saturday. Meanwhile, ASU has lost 10 of their last 13 games and is the worst rebounding team in the Big 12. I like the value on the Cowboys here against an undisciplined ASU team, which yet again is going nowhere this season.

    DUKE -15.5
    -116
    Spread
    Picked: Feb 10 @ 4:09am

    Analysis

    We're pretty sure no one has to remind Jon Scheyer that fellow Dookie and Coach K disciple Jeff Capel upset him with his Pitt side two years ago at Cameron Indoor...something Scheyer likely didn't have to remind his Blue Devils in their one matchup vs. the Panthers last season that Duke won by 29. Now another factor could favor the Blue Devils as they're off a rare loss, a grating one at that to Tobacco Road enemy UNC. Tonight, who better to take out some frustrations against than the Panthers, enduring a miserable campaign and off three straight double-digit defeats. Here's a chance for Cameron Boozer (23.3 ppg) to do some real damage. Play Duke
