We have 17 Units in play on a busy Saturday. Enjoy.
Missouri at Oklahoma 152.5
Both teams like to push the tempo and will look to score early in the shot clock.
Oklahoma has had issues with turnovers this season, and the Tigers force a lot of them with their press. That could lead to a lot of transition points, which is always good for a high-scoring game.
Take the over for 3 Units.
Mississippi at Tennessee (-7.5)
The Volunteers have been playing well since the suspension of four of their main contributors. But they needed a strong second half against a weak Auburn team to win their last game, and Ole Miss isn’t going to be an easy out.
The Rebels have much more talent than Auburn, and although Tennessee defeated Kansas with the short-handed lineup this will eventually catch up to the Vols.
Take Mississippi for 4 Units.
Arizona at Oregon 146.5
The Ducks have lost two straight games against a pair of defensive-minded teams. Arizona will play the up-tempo game that Oregon likes.
Both teams have strong guard play and good shooters from the outside and this should be a game with a lot of field goals.
Take the over for 3 Units.
Purdue at Northwestern 133
The Boilermakers are coming off of two straight losses, and will look to rebound with their trademark defense.
Purdue does a good job of closing out on 3-point shooters and that is a big part of the Wildcats’ offense. This will be a defensive battle with the winner scoring in the 60s.
Take the under for 3 Units.
Wisconsin at Ohio State (-5)
The Badgers are walking into a tough situation here with the Buckeyes having Evan Turner back in the lineup. Wisconsin mopped the floor with OSU in Madison earlier this season and best believe the Buckeyes will be looking for revenge.
This will be a game where Wisconsin misses the services of Jon Leuer, who is out with a broken wrist.
Look for OSU’s outside shooting and home-court advantage to be the difference here. Take the Buckeyes for 4 Units.
