William Burns
(#736) Villanova Wildcats | ATS | .
Georgetown had to play on Wednesday, sneaking past DePaul in a low scoring encounter. This time around, I don't think the Hoyas are going to have nearly as many stops. At times throughout this season, they've had struggles on both of the ball. They just aren't on the same level as the top teams in the Big East and that includes this Villanova team.
The Wildcats beat Georgetown by seven on the road back in February. One thing to point out is that Nova shot horrifically bad in that game from the free throw line, making only 14 of its 28 attempts. I don't expect that bad of a performance whatsoever today. In a neutral site game, give me the Wildcats.
Burns' Prediction: 83-66 Nova.
Kyle Hunter
Free Play Under- The under is 30-21 in the last 51 college basketball games played at Rocket Arena. This is a large arena and there won't be all that many people in the stands for this afternoon first round MAC Tournament contest. Bowling Green is second in the MAC in defensive efficiency. Both games in the regular season between these two stayed under the total. I think this total is a few points too high. Take the under.

Thursday's Free play: Northwestern Wildcats.
Northwest has been playing some very good basketball. Not only are they winning, they are covering the number, as well. The Wildcats have covered four in a row and seven of their last 10 overall outings. The last two days, they bested the Nittany Lions by 10-points, and then yesterday they took down the Hoosiers, a game in which they were nearly about a 7.0-point underdog, 74-61. Are they due for a letdown? Are they stepping up in class significantly? For the first question, I would say I don't know for sure. For the second, it is certain that they are stepping up in class. The Boilermakers are a darn good basketball team. Granted, they are not the team they were over recent seasons, and they have failed to cover four straight, while losing three of their last four. However, three of those matchups were against Michigan State at home, Ohio State on the road, and Wisconsin at home. Yes, the last meeting between these two teams took place just eight days ago as Northwestern lost a heartbreaker, 70-66. Laying double-digits is never an easy thing especially this time of year. It's true, the Wildcats don't have the most explosive offense, despite having one of the best players in the conference in Nick Martinelli. But the Boilermakers squad consists of three double-digit scorers, one player just under DD's, a few others flirting with it. They outscore opponents by an average of 11.6 PPG and are very good on the defensive boards. They are considerably better on the offensive boards in this matchup, too. And let's not forget they are one of the best in the nation from downtown. If this line would've been a little higher, I would've come in with the underdog just to side with a team that's been money covering for us bettors. I do feel it will be a bit closer than the pointspread. But I am not so sure that I would put them on as a premium play. I still like it. Take Northwestern. Thank you.

OVER 6
Colorado and Seattle have value to the over. This is an Avs team that typically bounces back in a big way and they’re in after a 4-3 loss to Seattle. Colorado puts up 3.78 gpg while Seattle has been involved in a lot of high scoring games recently. This has the makings of a wide open game with a lot shots on net both ways, as these teams love to pepper the opposing goal. Expect a lot of scoring chances. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on the OVER 6. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

For my best free pick on the board here for Thursday in College Basketball I am looking at the Creighton Blue Jays and the Seton Hall Pirates. Seton Hall comes in rather hot covering 5 of the last 8 games. Seton Hall with 5 more wins than Creighton yet this line is just a possession. Head to head we saw Creighton pull off a close win last time these two teams faced off and I expect another one possesion contest. Easy call here.
Play on the Creighton Blue Jays plus the points rotation #731

Jack Jones
Jack's Free Pick Thursday: Chicago Bulls +11.5
The Chicago Bulls aren't tanking. They have gone 3-2 SU & 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall with upset road wins over the Warriors and Suns, as well as an upset home win over the Bucks. They also took the Thunder to the wire in their other cover.
Josh Giddey is back healthy and coming off consecutive triple-doubles. With him leading the show, the Bulls can be competitive. Tre Jones is also great at running the offense alongside Giddey, plus when he hits the bench. The Bulls are a much more competent team than they get credit for.
This looks like the letdown spot for the Lakers. They have gone 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS in their last three games overall while coming off consecutive huge home wins over the Timberwolves and Knicks. They have the Nuggets followed by the Rockets on deck, making this the ultimate sandwich spot for them.
The Lakers will be without Marcus Smart and their defense will take a hit as a result. LeBron James remains questionable. The Bulls are 6-3 SU & 5-4 ATS in their last nine meetings with the Lakers. Chicago hasn't lost to Los Angeles by more than 11 points in any of their last 12 meetings. Bet the Bulls Thursday.

Free Play from Doc's Sports. Liga MX Soccer Take Toluca -1.5 GL over Atlas (9 p.m. EST, Saturday March 14) The two-time defending champs from Toluca host Atlas in Liga MX Matchday 11 this Saturday from Estadio Nemesio Diez. Atlas has been better this season than last, when they were one of the most porous defensive sides in the Liga. They have been respectable in that area. However, Atlas is not anywhere near the level of side that Toluca has. Toluca have the third best offense in the league through ten matches and they have the best defense by far, as they have allowed five goals through 10 matches. The next best defensive side has allowed eight, for comparisons sake, while the worst defensive side has allowed 26. Atlas is very unlikely to score here. Atlas is one of the worst road sides in Liga MX this season as they have three points in four tries, and they have scored only three goals while allowing eight. Toluca has four wins and a draw in five home matches, with 10 goals scored and three conceded. And in their last two visits to Toluca, Atlas lost both matches by an identical 4-1 score. We think we will see a similar result here!

Take: Atlanta Hawks -15 (4:40 PT / 7:40 ET)
Atlanta (34–31) has been strong at home and is facing a Brooklyn team that’s 17–48 with one of the league’s worst point differentials. The Hawks’ offense should overwhelm a Nets defense that has collapsed over the last month.

Brandon Lee
Thursday's NBA Free Pick
PLAY ON: Thunder -6.5
Sean Murphy
My selection is on Alabama A&M over Texas Southern at 2 pm et on Thursday.
Texas Southern looks like one of the most popular plays on the board on Thursday. I'm not buying the logic. Alabama A&M has been the better team this season but it was 'upset' in blowout fashion on the road in the lone regular season meeting between these two teams. Not only that but Alabama A&M closed out the regular season with three losses in their last four games including an 88-85 home defeat against Southern University the last time it took the floor one week ago. Texas Southern did end up finishing ahead of Alabama A&M in conference play but I think that's leaving it overvalued in this particular matchup as A&M figures to get its revenge in this high stakes affair. Take Alabama A&M (8*).
