We're done with this losing streak starting tonight with 16 Units in play, including a Jimmer lock.
Vanderbilt at Florida 147.5
The Commodores shook up their lineup in the last game, inserting John Jenkins, who scored 13 points. Vanderbilt likes to work quickly on offense and Florida has a balanced scoring attack led by freshman Kenny Boynton.
The Gators will be motivated to make a statement, and this should be a high-possession game, meaning lots of chances to score points.
Both team are only solid at the free throw line, shooting over 70 percent, so they won’t be giving away points there.
Take the over for 2 Units.
UTEP at Marshall (-2.5)
Both of these teams enter this CUSA matchup on substantial winning streaks. The Miners have won 12 straight, while the Thundering Herd has ripped off a seven straight.
UTEP can win an outright conference title with a victory, while Marshall is battling to finish in the top 3.
The Miners have been good on the road at 7-2 and their defense should help them grab this road win.
Take UTEP for 2 Units.
Minnesota at Michigan 125.5
In the last five games, Minnesota has held its opponents to 35.6 percent field goal shooting, while Michigan hasn't broken the 60-point mark in its last three games.
The Wolverines are near the top of the league in points allowed and the Gophers are an inconsistent offensive team on the road.
Michigan's patient offense coupled with Minnesota's aggressive defense will slow this game down.
Take the under for a stone-cold, lead-pipe, Jimmer-third-game-bowling-under lock for 5 Units.
Miami at North Carolina (-4)
The Tar Heels may have found some confidence after their victory at Wake Forest, and now they host Miami, which just lost a big lead against NC State at home.
Although, UNC is pretty banged up they still have the talent to defeat the Canes even on a poor night. UNC has lost three of four at home, but look for the Heels to give maximum effort on senior night.
Take UNC for 4 Units.
Baylor at Texas Tech 148
Both of these teams like to play an up-tempo game and have averaged over 75 ppg each. Tech scores 79 points per game at home, and last time these two teams met the score was 88-70.
Baylor and Tech each have strong guard play and depth, which should make for a fast-paced game.
Take the over for 3 Units.
