Men’s and Women’s College Basketball Best Bets:
Another 2-1 day in men’s basketball has us riding a 13-5 streak dating back to last week, and I’m honestly pretty fired up about it. After testing, tweaking, analyzing, and tweaking some more, I feel like TSI is humming heading into the home stretch of the season and my bet selection is becoming more stringent and, most importantly, profitable. There’s a song I like that says, “As long as this bronco is bucking, I’ll stay saddled”, and I am doing just that.
Reminder on how to read the projections: If the spread is a positive number, that indicates the team on the left (Home, unless neutral site) is favored by TSI. If the spread is a negative, that indicates the team on the right (Away, unless neutral side) is favored by TSI. TSI total is the projected number of combined points in the game.
Here are today’s projections for both men’s and women’s games:
