Betting news, trends, odds and predictions from various handicappers and websites for Sunday 2/3/19
The totals stunk it up Saturday with a 1-3 mark, but the sides came through for us with a 3-0-1 day, so can’t complain too terribly much. Just a strange day overall, where none of our under losers were really blown out and most looked decent for the first 10 minutes, but a few scoring spurts did us in. Despite the urge to make some wholesale changes, will just leave things alone since they’ve served us well for the most part.
Pretty small slate of games today and a bit of a surprise in that we have two overs.
Xavier at Creighton: Creighton is favored by 3.5 with a first half total of 72.5 and I have them leading 44-36 at the break, so we have our seven-point difference and a near miss on a side play, which is one of several close calls today. Creighton averages 40.5 first-half points and 41.9 at home, while allowing 37.5 and slightly more than 36 at home. Xavier scores slight less at home, while allowing a few more points, so this one should come down to the wire at the first-half buzzer.
Quinnipac at Niagra: Niagra is favored by .5 with a first-half total of 71.5 and I have this one 34-32 in favor of Niagra at the break, so a play on the under here, although I’m a little hesitant to jump in. The teams played to a 37-35 first half just a few weeks ago and this is another one that could come down to the final minute.
South Dakota State at Denver: The last game on the schedule today has South Dakota State favored by 5 with a first-half total of 72.5 and I have this one at 82 points. South Dakota State is averaging 85 points per game and scores more in the first half than they do in the second half, while Denver is the traditional score a little more at home and allo slightly less. Denver is pretty average offensively, so we’re going to need the road team to step it up a bit for us.
Since the schedule is pretty small, here are all of the projections for the day’s games:
27 Wake Forest
37 Clemson
31 Minnesota
41 Purdue
33 Georgetown
39 Villanova
36 Xavier
44 Creighton
34 Wright St
33 IUPUI
27 East Carolina
41 Uconn
32 Stanford
33 California
36 Northern Kentucky

37 North Dakota
38 Nebraska Omaha
32 Quinnipac
34 Niagra
47 S Dakota St
35 Denver
