With the way that Alabama and Duke have been lighting up the scoreboard, the East Regional Final at the Prudential Center should not lack for excitement. Both teams scored at least 100 points in Thursday’s March Madness games to set up the first matchup between the teams since 2013.

Do you want star power? Well, Duke freshman Cooper Flagg did a little of everything in the win over Arizona while Mark Sears of Alabama was 10 of 16 from 3-point range. That’s a pretty good ratio if nobody is guarding you, but it is hard to fathom in a regional semifinal.

The March Madness odds list Duke as the 7-point favorite with -290 odds to win outright. Alabama is priced at +240 to reach the Elite Eight for the second season in a row. Duke (+185) is favored to win it all in the NCAA basketball futures odds.

 

Alabama vs Duke Free March Madness Parlay Picks Today, March 29

  • Alabama ATS +7

Duke failed to cover against Arizona as a 9-point favorite even though the Blue Devils were in control of things for much of the second half. Can the Blue Devils get back to covering against the college basketball spread as a 7-point favorite against Alabama?

That seems to be a little too high for my taste. I won’t be surprised to see Duke play its way into the Final Four. However, Alabama is 4-4 outright this season when playing a top-10 ranked team while Duke has played just one top-10 opponent.

Alabama is 6-2 ATS as the underdog this season, Take the Crimson TIde to deliver again when looking at the March Madness picks.
