The brackets are set, and the chaos is about to begin. We’ve got New Mexico squaring up with Marquette in a Round of 64 showdown. Look, if you’re itching to bet on March Madness, this is one of those games you should consider taking.

Marquette is the clear favorite in the NCAAB odds, but the Lobos have been playing strong lately. This could be where the underdog busts a few brackets, so let’s break down why this game could surprise everyone.

 

New Mexico vs. Marquette Free March Madness 4 Parlay Picks Today (March 21)

1. New Mexico +4

With two of the nation’s stronger offenses, this one won’t be a blowout, but I’m backing the Lobos and the points. Marquette’s offense is strong, but its interior defense? Atrocious, allowing opponents to shoot nearly 44%. Enter New Mexico, a team that thrives inside and likes to crash the boards. In short: take New Mexico against the March Madness odds.

Bet New Mexico +4 (-115)

 

2. New Mexico vs. Marquette Over 154

No questions asked, my March Madness predictions see this being a higher-scoring game. While Marquette struggles in defending inside the arc, New Mexico has been sloppy on the perimeter, allowing 7.5 3-pointers per game. With that in mind, expect both teams to play to their weaknesses, easily pushing the score total past 153.5.

Bet Over 154 points

 

4. Kam Jones 3+ Made 3-Pointers

Marquette’s Kam Jones is the guy to watch and I’m taking him to drain 3+ triples. With the Golden Eagles relying on him to lead the offense and New Mexico’s perimeter defense being a weak spot, this is one of those NCAAB basketball picks you can lock in. Jones has hit this mark for three straight games, and I expect him to keep the streak going.

Bet Kam Jones 3+ 3-pointers (+122)

 

5. Nelly Junior Joseph 12+ Rebounds

Marquette’s had serious rebounding issues all season, and that’s where the Lobos can clean up, with center Nelly Junior Joseph leading the way. Averaging 11.2 boards per game, Junior Joseph is the glass-cleaner every team wishes they had. After grabbing just eight boards in the Mountain West Championship, expect him to snap back and dominate the glass – lock this in for your March Madness picks today.

Bet Nelly Junior Joseph 12+ rebounds (-137)
