Thursday's Best NCAAB Bets
By Covers.com
Virginia Cavaliers at Duke Blue Devils (-9.5, 129)
Virginia hasn’t beaten perennial Atlantic Coast Conference power Duke since 2007, and it hasn’t won at Cameron Indoor Stadium since 1995, a span of 14 games.
The No. 17 Cavaliers will try to change that – and establish themselves among the frontrunners in the ACC title race – when the teams square off in a key conference game Thursday.
The Cavaliers have won 12 straight, but they got quite a scare in their conference opener Saturday, holding on for a 52-51 home win over Miami after squandering a nine-point halftime lead. Mike Scott had a big game against the Hurricanes with 23 points and eight rebounds, but no one else scored in double figures. Scott, who was named the ACC Player of the Week for the third time this season, will need more help from his supporting cast against a strong Duke team.
The sixth-ranked Blue Devils have won 18 straight conference games at home and is 57-1 at home since the start of the 2008-09 season with 43 straight wins at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Virginia's tough defense will keep this one close.
Pick: Cavaliers
Tennessee Volunteers at Mississippi State Bulldogs (-7.5, 139)
The 20th-ranked Bulldogs host Tennessee on Thursday with a focus on tightening up their defense. Mississippi State is coming off a 98-88 loss at Arkansas in which the Razorbacks shot an eye-popping 56.5 percent.
The Volunteers, meanwhile, won their SEC opener with a stifling defensive performance at home. They upset Florida 67-56, holding the Gators to a season-low 56 points on 35.7 percent shooting. Tennessee has won the last six match-ups with Mississippi State, but the series is 26-26 in games played in Starkville.
Forward Kenny Hall and guard Jordan McRae came off the bench last Saturday for the first time all season and combined for 23 points as the Vols stretched their home win streak to five. Fifth-year senior guard Cameron Tatum is 51 points shy of becoming the 44th Vol to reach 1,000 career points. He’s averaging 9.5 points.
The Vols won't sneak up on Mississippi, but they should be able to hang around.
Pick: Volunteers

No. 21 Virginia Cavaliers vs. No. 5 Duke Blue Devils
Virginia has been one of the early surprises in the ACC with 14 wins in its first 15 games. The Cavaliers failed to cover as 7½-point home favorites on Saturday in a 52-51 squeaker over Miami (FLA) but is still a profitable 7-3 ATS. The win over the Hurricanes extended their current SU winning streak to 12 games.
Duke quickly erased the memory of a shocking 78-73 road loss to Temple last Wednesday as a 7½-point favorite with an 81-74 victory over Georgia Tech this past Saturday as an 11 ½-point home favorite. The Blue Devils are 13-2 SU overall and 7-0 SU at home. They are 6-9 ATS overall and 4-3 ATS at home.
Thursday CBB Tips

The college basketball conference season is starting to heat up as several leagues are getting around to their third games already. Meanwhile, the Big 10 has gotten off to a nice jump start with teams playing their fifth game of conference play, including an intriguing matchup in Bloomington on Thursday night.
Minnesota at Indiana (-11, 142)
The Hoosiers continue to be one of the biggest surprises in the country after starting the season at 15-1, including a December upset of previously top-ranked Kentucky at home. Indiana goes for its fourth conference victory in five tries when Minnesota invades Assembly Hall, while the Golden Gophers remain winless in Big 10 play at 0-4.
Minnesota finished non-conference action at 12-1, but Tubby Smith's club has stubbed its toe recently with four straight losses. Following road setbacks at Illinois and Michigan, the Gophers fell at home to Iowa and Purdue as favorites, while digging themselves into a 15-point halftime hole in the loss to the Boilermakers. Minnesota is listed as an underdog for just the third time all season, with the lone cover coming in the five-point defeat at Michigan as six-point 'dogs.
Tom Crean's squad endured a tough road the last three seasons with a 28-66 overall record and 8-46 mark inside conference play. However, Crean kept plugging away and returned Indiana to national prominence with a strong start, including Big 10 victories over Penn State, Michigan, and Ohio State. The upset of the Buckeyes as five-point 'dogs marked the third outright win when getting points this season.
The home team has won each of the last five meetings in the series, including a pair of games last season decided by a total of seven points. Indiana managed a cover in each game, while beating Minnesota in Bloomington, 60-57 as three-point underdogs. However, the Hoosiers own a 1-9 ATS mark the previous 10 games in Big 10 action dating back to last season.
Virginia at Duke (-9½, 129)
Two of the top three teams in the ACC meet up at Cameron Indoor Stadium as both the Cavaliers and Blue Devils are 1-0 in conference play. Duke was expected to be a top-10 team at this point, but Virginia has turned many heads with its impressive 14-1 start to the season.
The Cavaliers edged Miami (FL) in the conference opener, 52-51, but failed to cash as 7½-point favorites. Tony Bennett's club is known for playing low-scoring games, as the Wahoos are 9-1 to the 'under' in 10 lined contests this season. The lone 'over' came in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge as Virginia ran out Michigan, 70-58, eclipsing the total of 115½.
Duke returns home after splitting a pair of road contests at Temple and Georgia Tech. The Blue Devils were tripped up in Philadelphia by the Owls, 78-73 as 7½-point favorites, while allowing Temple to shoot 56% from the floor. Duke rebounded with a win in the ACC opener at Georgia Tech, 81-74, but couldn't cover a hefty 11½-point number. Mike Krzyzewski's team is a perfect 7-0 at home, while going 4-3 ATS, including an 0-2 ATS mark when laying less than 20 points.
The Blue Devils have claimed seven straight meetings in this series, with each victory coming by double-digits. The Cavaliers did manage a cover in Durham last season as 21½-point underdogs, as Duke overcame a six-point halftime deficit with a 51-29 second-half surge.
What else to watch for:
Middle Tennessee State is one of the top ATS teams in the nation by covering 12 of 15 lined games this season. The Blue Raiders continue Sun Belt play at Florida International tonight, as MTSU has won each of the last five matchups. MTSU is riding a three-game ATS win streak, as its last non-cover came at home to FIU in a five-point victory as 18-point 'chalk.'
Gonzaga has covered six of its last seven games as the Bulldogs head to California for a battle with St. Mary's in a WCC showdown. Mark Few's club is riding a solid 6-1 'under' streak, while holding each of its last seven opponents to 61 points or less. St. Mary's has seen the 'over' hit in five of the previous seven contests, including three of four in WCC play.

College Basketball Betting News and Notes
By Rob Veno
NC-Wilmington at Georgia State -12.5 O/U 132.5
It will be interesting to see how first-year head coach Ron Hunter’s Panthers handle this home game after going through a three-game CAA gauntlet. Tough struggles with fellow league kingpins Drexel, VCU and George Mason resulted in 2-1 SU and 3-0 ATS records but can GSU bring the same energy and focus tonight at home against fast paced NC-Wilmington? The Seahawks will be without starting forward Donte Morales who is averaging 22 minutes per game. Star forward Keith Rendelman (56.6 FG%, 15.2 ppg) picked up his second CAA Player of the Week award this past week.
Arkansas-Little Rock -2.5 at UL-Monroe O/U 118.5
Without their leading scorer, rebounder and three-point shooter, 6-10 Will Neighbour (Sun Belt POW Dec 25-31), the Trojans offense mustered just 91 points during his two-game absence. Granted those contests were versus SEC power Kentucky and defensive minded conference foe Florida Atlantic, but UALR shot 30% and 31% from the field. Neighbour is listed as day-to-day and would provide a huge boost for the red-hot Trojans if he can go tonight against the molasses style pace of UL-Monroe.
Note on Tennessee-Chattanooga. Looks like the Mocs are a little stronger health wise heading into tonight’s game against Wofford.
Couple of head coaches quotes:
Wright State
“Milwaukee is really big, and they can play four guys 6-6 or taller around Kaylon (6-3), and that provides a matchup problem for us.” Wright State HC Billy Donlon
Utah State
USU’s Stew Morrill commenting on the first of a four-game road trip at New Mexico State tonight: ""I hope our guys feel a sense of we have got to try and get one back," Morrill said. "Any time that you lose at home you are looking to get one back on the road to at least try to get back to even. I hope that we are playing with a little urgency."
