Men’s and Women’s College Basketball Best Bets:
After a weekend of trading money back and forth with the books, we bounced back nicely with a clean sweep yesterday, going 3-0 on women’s best bets and even the men’s leans went 2-0 if you took those. We’ll look to keep it rolling today with a decent slate of men’s and women’s games today as conference tournaments heat up and we’re a day closer to judgment day, aka Selection Sunday.
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.
