Friday's Best NCAAB Bets
By Covers.com
Providence Friars at Notre Dame Fighting Irish (-11, 130)
This isn’t exactly the way the Notre Dame Fighting Irish wanted to head into their regular-season finale.
The Irish have dropped two games in a row, both straight up and against the spread, and are showing some major issues on offense.
Notre Dame hit just seven of 48 trey attempts in those two games, but coach Mike Brey tried to stay positive about the slump.
“I think it’s great,” Brey told reporters after Georgetown pounded the visiting Irish 59-41. “I think it comes at a good time. It’s a nice wake-up (call) after an unbelievable run for us. We may be a little human.”
The good news for Irish supporters is that a win Friday will give the club a bye through the first two rounds of the Big East Tournament.
Notre Dame has been an excellent home team all season, going 6-2-2 against the number and Brey will have his troops ready to bounce back Friday.
Pick: Irish
Harvard Crimson at Columbia Lions (8, 116)
All of a sudden things have gotten very testy for the Harvard Crimson.
Not long ago, it looked as though they were going to cruise to an Ivy League title, but now they need two wins this weekend just to guarantee them a share of the conference title.
Last weekend, Pennsylvania shocked Harvard 55-54 with the Crimson set as 11-point favorites. Harvard hit just two of 11 shots from downtown and struggled to contain the Quakers’ offense.
That same sort of offense could be an issue Friday as well.
“I’m concerned because they’re similar in ways to what Penn can do, which is to spread you out and dribble drive,” Harvard coach Tommy Amaker told reporters about facing Columbia. “The kid Barbour is very, very good off the bounce. Instead of trying to run their plays, [they might say], ‘Let’s just open the floor up and see if we can drive it by them.’ That’s what I anticipate they’ll look to do.”
This could be another grind for the Crimson.
