Men’s and Women’s College Basketball Best Bets:
It’s Friday, which means two things: the weekend is upon us and we’re in for micro-slates of basketball today. But, as I do on these days with miniscule slates of games on the women’s side, I will include my men’s projections and bets. Yesterday wasn’t particularly kind to us on the women’s side, so let’s hope to turn that around today and pad our bankroll heading into the monstrous weekend slate.
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.
