Top 3 College Basketball Picks Today

1. Alabama (-4) to Cover at Texas

Texas made quite the statement on the football field early in the 2023 college football season when the Longhorns went into Tuscaloosa and handed Alabama a rare home loss.

The teams didn’t meet in 2024 even though Texas moved from the Big 12 to the SEC. The basketball teams will square off on Tuesday. It will be the first meeting between the Longhorns and the Crimson Tide since 2017.

The game could be a treat for those who want to partake in the college basketball player prop bets. Alabama guard Mark Sears is averaging 16 points and 6.0 assists over his last three games while Texas guard Tre Johnson is putting up 22 points over his previous five contests.

Even though Alabama is just 2-3 against the college basketball spread as a road favorite this season, take the Crimson Tide to cover.

2. BYU vs West Virginia Over 136.5 (-110)

Scoring points was not a problem the first time that West Virginia and BYU squared off as Big 12 foes. BYU had 13 3-pointers and 19 assists in its 86-73 win at West Virginia.

BYU looks to be as healthy as it has been all season with Mihailo Boskovic, Mawot Mag, Dallin Hall, Keba Keita, Egor Demin and leading scorer Richie Sanders all back in action after combining to miss 14 games this season.

The Cougars topped the 80-point mark in four consecutive games before being held to 74 and 66 in losses to Arizona and Cincinnati, per BYU vs West Virginia stats.

West Virginia certainly misses senior forward Tucker DeVries. Even with high-scoring guard Javon Small leading the way, the Mountaineers averaged just 58 points while losing five of seven games. There were signs of life as Amani Hansberry had 17 points and Joseph Yesufu added 14 points in Saturday’s 72-61 win over Utah.

With the BetUS sportsbook putting the total at 136.5 points and there not being much familiarity between the teams, go with the game to land over.

3. Syracuse (+105) To Win At Miami

What a nightmare of a season it has been for the Miami Hurricanes. Most of its top returning players exited via the transfer portal and head coach Jim Larranaga retired rather than opting to coach this season.

Per NCAAB betting trends, Miami has covered in just four of its 13 home games this season while Syracuse is 5-2 ATS on the road with the Orange listed as the underdog in each of those games.Syracuse has been playing without freshman forward Donnie Freeman since early January. The Orange is 2-5 on the road with both of those wins coming against Boston College. Even though Miami did win its previous home game, when looking at the Syracuse vs Miami best bets, take the visiting Orange to win outright.
