Dec. 12 Plays

We're looking to get back in black with these plays.

Kentucky (-9.5) at Indiana Over/under 144

The Wildcats have won a couple of huge games in the past week, beating North Carolina and UConn in the same week. Both games were hard-fought, down-to-the-wire contests.

Meanwhile, the Hoosiers earned a big win over Pittsburgh in the Jimmy V Classic and are playing the best they have under Tom Crean.

Both squads are young and inconsistent, but Indiana could give Kentucky a game on their home floor.

But this game will most likely be in the 60s and therefore the prudent play. Take the Hoosiers for 2 Units, and the under for 4 Units.



Ohio State at Butler (-4)

This is a must-win for Butler, and OSU is without its leader, Evan Turner. Take the Bulldogs for 4 Units.

Georgetown (-1.5) at Washington

The Hoyas earned a big win against Butler earlier this week, while Washington was recently upset by Texas Tech. The Huskies need to bounce back here, and G'Town is slightly overrated as the 13th team in the country. Take Washington for 3 Units.

St. Mary’s at Oregon (PK)

The Ducks are too young, and too undisciplined on defense to stop the Gaels outside shooting. Take SMC for 2 Units.

Marquette at Wisconsin (-5.5)

The Badgers are tough in the Kohl Center, and outside of a six-game losing streak last season, are generally tough after a loss. Look for Wisconsin to pull away in the second half. Take Wisconsin for 2 Units.

Davidson at Gonzaga (-12.5)

Davidson is far from the team that advanced to the Elite Eight two years ago. They are 2-6 and travelling across the country to face a deep, talented Gonzaga team. Take the Zags for 3 Units.

Purdue (-4) at Alabama

The Boilermakers have been rising the rankings since the beginning of the season, undefeated and ranked No. 4. Alabama is well-coached and will be motivated for the upset, which could help their resume. Roll Tide for 4 Units.
