NCAA Basketball Picks 1/31/08
Written January 30, 2008 by Jack Jones
Arizona +4
This year Arizona has done a good job of playing up to the level of their competition, going 11-3 ATS against teams who are outscoring their opponents by 4+ ppg. The Wildcats have always played well in the role of the underdog, going 36-16 ATS when catching points the last ten seasons. Arizona is playing well, winning by double digits in their last two games against Washington and Washington State. That’s important because the Wildcats are 6-0 ATS the last two seasons coming off back-to-back double digit blowouts. Sure USC has won four straight games, but I’m going against the Trojans on Thursday night.
Leans:
Detroit U +4
Wright State -6
North Texas +2.5
California +10
Washington +1.5
