Mississippi vs Purdue Betting Analysis
Before we get started, let’s acknowledge Corbie Craig and his insane 18-3-1 ATS mark in his college basketball expert picks. That is an epic run, and it’s no wonder that I am riding his coattails with under 145 total points combined between Ole Miss and Purdue.
Purdue’s games have gone under the posted total in their last four contests, including in their latest outing when they defeated NC State 71-61, which was 15 ½ points under the 147.5 total in that particular game. If we take a snapshot of the Boilermakers’ last 10 games dating back to last season, we see that under has cashed in 8 of their 10 contests.
That’s right, low totals in Purdue games have been a veritable ATM, and that money train will continue tonight when these teams meet on a neutral court in San Diego at LionTree Arena. If you are at all concerned about Ole Miss scoring in buckets, don’t be.
The Rebels put up big numbers when playing inferior teams, but they fall back to earth when installed as an underdog or small favorite. This total has already tumbled a hook since the show, so let’s not wait; let’s get down on under 145 in our NCAAB picks today!
Pick: Under 145 (-111) Ole Miss/Purdue
Georgia State vs Kentucky Betting Analysis
The Big Man on Campus is a chalk-eater today and betting like Joe Q. Public in his college basketball picks against the spread, but if there was ever a blowout waiting to happen, it’s right here tonight, when the Wildcats get ready to maul their guests from Georgia State.
Kentucky is undefeated and ranked 8th in the nation but tops in scoring, averaging 95.3 points per game, 2nd in assists at 20.8 per game, and 3rd in rebounds with 45.5 boards per game. This is a juggernaut ladies and gentlemen. As for the Cats’ defense, they are allowing only 66.4 points per game, which means the margin between their scoring production and their defense is a whopping 29 points!
Georgia State is 4-3 thus far, with their most recent outing culminating in a 74-71 over Tulsa. But let’s be clear: the Panthers are not playing some middling team from the American Conference.
No, they are tipping off against one of the big boys, and if we consider that they are scoring just 75.3 points per game (205th) against marginal opponents, how can they possibly keep up with the big dogs…or cats…like Kentucky?
